[News] Lagos assembly suspends three council chairmen

Three local government Council Chairmen in Lagos state have been suspended by the state house of assembly over alleged disregard for the guidelines governing their activities.

The affected chairmen are Honourable Ogidan Mukandasi Olaitan of Lekki Local Council Development Area (LCDA), Suleiman Jelili of Alimosho Local Government Area and Tajudeen Ajide of Surulere Local Government Area.

Their suspension was unanimously approved by members of the House in a voice vote with no opposition shortly after Honourable Bisi Yusuff (Alimosho 1) raised a complaint against Olaitan.

The house stated that it will no longer continue to watch the Council Chairmen stubbornly flout the state’s local government guidelines.
