SANWO-OLU’S HUMILITY AND COMPOSURE LAUDED AMID OBASA’S IMPEACHMENT
Bestman Nze-Jumbo, a close ally of Lagos State Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu, has commended the governor’s calm demeanor and humility following the recent impeachment of Mudashiru Obasa, Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly. Speaking on Arise TV, Nze-Jumbo highlighted Sanwo-Olu’s consistent display of humility, even in the face of challenging circumstances. Bestman “In all this, you will never hear Babajide Sanwo-Olu make derogatory statements against Obasa or anyone perceived as a hindrance to his leadership,” Nze-Jumbo stated. “That shows the level of his humility, and it’s a lesson for all of us. Humility is key in Lagos politics. In the APC, no one can rise above the party.” Obasa’s impeachment was reportedly linked to tensions arising during the governor’s 2025 budget presentation, where Obasa allegedly kept Sanwo-Olu and his team waiting for hours before the Assembly convened. Nze-Jumbo dismissed speculation of animosity between the governor and Obasa, emphasizing Sanwo-Olu’s commitment to fostering harmony within the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC). “Probably, Obasa never thought 20 or 25 years ago that he would get to where he is now,” Nze-Jumbo said. “Humility in leadership is crucial, and that’s something Sanwo-Olu demonstrates consistently.” Nze-Jumbo, a philanthropist and communications expert, is a strong supporter of Sanwo-Olu’s administration and has initiated various programs to promote positive development in Lagos State.
