Ikuforiji, others too arrogant to reverse oppressive, anti-people laws, says Lagos PDP



Opeyemi Adesina

The Lagos State Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has described the Speaker, Adeyemi Ikuforiji and the entire Lagos State House of Assembly (LAHA) as a morally burdened, confused and anti people legislature that will be held responsible, jointly and severally to answer for the implications of all their obnoxious Laws which have now turned the state into a hyper tensed state.

The description is coming as a reaction to the diversionary call by the Speaker and some members of the LAHA that security personnel, especially the Police, should not be overzealous when enforcing the recently passed traffic Law.

"Honestly it is our assessment that this is the worst and anti People Legislature Lagos has ever had. It is expected that a Peoples Legislature must hear and support the wishes of the people. Unfortunately this LAHA is too arrogant to reverse obnoxious, oppressive and anti people Laws.

"The reactions coming against the Traffic Laws and especially the number of deaths and injuries being recorded as a result of the enforcement was enough for a listening and Pro people House of Assembly to repeal or atleast suspend the Law"

The party has thus predicted that 80% of the current members will either be recalled or resign when the people decide to vent their anger. It consequently advised that the LAHA should manifestly represent the Masses and eschew actions capable of causing them ridicule or hatred in the opinion of the people.
