Mojisola Meranda has resigned as the speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly.
She resigned on Monday, March 3 at the ongoing plenary session.

Mojisola Meranda is believed to have presided over the plenary at the Lagos State House of Assembly.
Ousted Speaker, Mudashiru Obasa, who was earlier at the assembly complex was not at the Monday sitting.
Obasa, Meranda and all the lawmakers at the House earlier held a meeting outside the chamber.
The meeting held ahead of the plenary which commenced around 2pm.
Leaders of the state chapter of the All Progressives Congress, including Chairman Cornelius Ojelabi, were at the meeting
The Attorney General of Lagos State, Lawal Pedro, was also at the meeting which was expected to resolve the leadership crisis at the House.
Obasa had earlier arrived around 1:30pm to join the lawmakers at the meeting held under a tent.
He later left the meeting after a separate chat with the AG, Ojelabi and other party stakeholders.
Minutes after she resigned as Speaker, Lagos lawmakers have re-elected her as Deputy Speaker. She said she had to make the selfless sacrifice to preserve the institution.
