Speaker Obasa Celebrates Deputy Governor Hamzat At 60—-The Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Mudashiru Obasa, has described Deputy Governor Kadiri Obafemi Hamzat as a seasoned administrator passionate about the growth and development of Lagos.

Dr. Obasa said this on Wednesday in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Eromosele Ebhomele, celebrating Dr. Hamzat, who clocks 60 on Thursday, September 19.

The Speaker, while calling Dr. Hamzat a blessing to Lagos and Nigeria, added that the Deputy Governor had shown over the years that he is a strong believer in the Lagos project and that his contributions to the progress of the State cannot be under-emphasised.

“He is not just a seasoned administrator alone, a fine gentleman, he has contributed through his office and collaborations with other leaders in the state to make Lagos remain great.

“At 60, Dr. Hamzat maintains a series of achievements making him a perfect example of a technocrat whose commitment has brought positive results to the State.

“He is a dedicated Nigerian, a true brother and trusted ally in the push to make Lagos a better place,” Obasa said while noting the cordial relationship between Hazmat and Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu and their collaboration with other arms of government resulting in the seamless running of the State.

“I congratulate Dr. Obafemi Hamzat, a worthy friend and committed leader in Lagos as he becomes a sexagenarian. He remains a blessing to us all and we are happy to have him as the Deputy Governor of Lagos.

“Dr. Hamzat is a very loyal team player with fantastic knowledge and managerial skills and we are always proud to have him with us.

“His experience over the years has helped advance the glory of our dear State. We appreciate him for being a valuable contributor to the success so far recorded in Lagos.

“On behalf of my family, my colleagues, management and staff of the Lagos State House of Assembly, I thank Allah for helping our Deputy Governor achieve this milestone. I also pray for more of Allah’s grace upon him,” the statement added.

President Tinubu Appoint Rtd Vice Admiral Ibokette Ibas As River State Administrator

According to latest report, Ibas will take over from Governor Siminalayi Fubara who was suspended for six months by President Tinubu following the declaration of a State of Emergency in the oil-rich State.

The development followed a prolonged political crisis in the State arising from the face-off between Fubara and 27 lawmakers.

Tinubu in a nationwide broadcast on Tuesday evening said: “By this declaration, the Governor of Rivers State, Mr Siminalayi Fubara, his deputy, Mrs Ngozi Odu and all elected members of the House of Assembly of Rivers State are hereby suspended for an initial period of six months.

“In the meantime, I hereby nominate Vice Admiral Ibokette Ibas (Rtd) as Administrator to take charge of the affairs of the state in the interest of the good people of Rivers State. For the avoidance of doubt, this declaration does not affect the judicial arm of Rivers State, which shall continue to function in accordance with their constitutional mandate.

“The Administrator will not make any new laws. He will, however, be free to formulate regulations as may be found necessary to do his job, but such regulations will need to be considered and approved by the Federal Executive Council and promulgated by the President for the state.”

BREAKING: The Trump Administration Has Reportedly Halt All Aid to Ukraine—-Donald Trump administration press secretary Caroline Leavitt stated that the U.S. will no longer provide military assistance to Ukraine because their priority is peace negotiations.

This decision came after the controversy during Zelensky’s visit.

“We are no longer going to just write blank checks for a war in a very distant country without a real, lasting peace,” Leavitt said.

“It was great that the cameras were rolling because the American people and the whole world got to see what President Trump and his team are dealing with behind closed doors in negotiations with the Ukrainians,” she added.

Earlier, The Washington Post reported that the Trump administration is not ruling out halting all ongoing military aid shipments to Ukraine, worth billions of dollars.
