Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, Speaker of Lagos State House of Assembly, said that the political empire, APC, which was built by Asiwaju Bola Tinubu remains intact and unshaken.
The speaker disclosed this in response to the insinuation that friction exists between himself and a former member of the state Assembly and current senator representing Lagos East, Bayo Oshinowo.
He said that insinuating friction from disciplinary measures is a wrong assumption and emphasized that no one in his right frame of mind would do anything to jeopardize the unity and strength which the National Leader of APC, Tinubu, built in establishing the political party in Nigeria.
He said;
“Tinubu remains everything to the continued success of the party he built from scratch and nurtured up to this moment.
“It is unarguable that his resilience, love for democracy, passion to see his foot-soldiers grow and belief in discipline cannot be measured,” he said.
“The legislature must remain strong at all times, especially in relation to Nigeria’s democracy because it is often the hardest hit where issues in the democratic journey pop up.
“This is why during plenary on Monday, March 9, I made this proclamation: ‘The parliament is a heartbeat of every democratic system, its sanctity, integrity and positive reputation should be guided and protected, hence discipline is a key and where it’s lacking, the hope of the people fizzle,” he said.
Obasa further hammered on the fact that the rift insinuated between himself and Oshinowo was wrong.

He added that he “was the one that dropped Senator Oshinowo off on his way to Abuja yesterday. If there was a rift between us, will that happen?”.
