Obasa’s son appointed Lagos LG chairman

AbdulGaniyu Vinod Obasa, the son of the Lagos State House of Assembly Speaker, Mudashiru Obasa, has been appointed as the Chairman of Agege Local Government of the state.

AbdulGaniyu’s appointment comes after the Chairman of Agege Local Government, Tunde Azeez, popularly known as Disco, resigned from his position on Wednesday, November 5, 2025, citing health challenges.

In a letter submitted to the Agege Local Government Legislative Arm, Azeez stated that his health issues had “significantly impacted his ability to discharge his duties.”

The Legislative Council, after what it described as “thorough deliberation,” unanimously passed a resolution accepting his resignation, effective immediately.
