The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mudashiru Obasa, has expressed openness to contesting for a senatorial or gubernatorial position, depending on his party’s direction.
Speaking on Television Continental on Thursday, Obasa addressed past remarks about his political ambitions, clarifying his potential interest in a higher office.
When pressed on whether this ambition still holds, he emphasised that while he has personal goals, any decision would align with his party’s leadership and collective strategy.
“Every politician has ambitions, but you get to a stage where you cannot determine what comes next. If you believe in the party structure, you understand that it’s about consultation, consensus, and the leadership’s direction,” he said.
He added that while personal aspirations are valid, final decisions must align with the party’s strategic considerations.
