GOV SANWO-OLU SWEARS-IN PRINCESS ONIKOSI ABOLANLE SAMIAT AS CHAIRMAN OF IKOSI ISHERI LCDA AT LAGOS HOUSE, IKEJA ON THURSDAY 30TH JANUARY, 2020
Taking to her Whatsapp status on Saturday, Princess Samiat Bada issued a musical jab, declaring, “Accept for your boss, she’s coming back.” This cryptic message seemed to address the mounting pressure both outside and within her cabinets as the local government chairmanship race looms.
Despite having taken the oath of office twice, Princess Samiat Bada is resolute in her belief that she can run again. Backing on the administrative law enacted by the Lagos State House of Assembly, which lacks a time limit for LCDA Chairmen, as her legal footing. However, some voices, like Oloye Seun Salami, challenge this interpretation, pointing out the need for compliance with the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria.
Oloye Seun Salami raises valid questions about the legal implications of local government laws enacted by state houses of assembly. He emphasizes the importance of legal clarity in such matters to ensure adherence to federal constitutional provisions.
