The Lagos State House of Assembly has suspended three local government council chairmen over alleged disregard for the guidelines governing their activities.
The lawmakers took the action Tuesday, saying the House can no longer continue to watch while the council chairmen continue to flout the state’s local government guidelines.
The suspended chairmen include Ogidan Mukandasi Olaitan of Lekki 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 Bisi Yusuff (Alimosho 1) raised a complaint against Mr Olaitan.
