2027 polls: Why Obasa may settle for Reps' seat - Sources

Speaker of the House, Mr. Mudashiru Obasa, is shifting his focus from a governorship bid to contesting for the House of Representatives seat for Agege Federal Constituency in the 2027 elections. After President Tinubu selected Dr. Obafemi Hamzat as the preferred governorship candidate, Obasa redirected his attention to the Lagos West Senatorial District but was advised to pursue a House seat instead. He has begun quiet mobilization efforts within Agege to rally grassroots support for his new political objective.
