President Bola Tinubu is currently meeting with members of the Lagos state house of assembly at the Presidential Villa Abuja as part of efforts to resolve the ongoing crisis within the legislature.
The meeting, which began on Wednesday afternoon, follows weeks of political turmoil in the Lagos assembly.
In January, 36 lawmakers voted to impeach Mudasiru Obasa as speaker over allegations of abuse of office and financial mismanagement.
However, he was later reinstated following the intervention of the Governance Advisory Council (GAC), the highest decision-making body of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Lagos.
Mojisola Meranda, who briefly replaced Obasa as speaker before stepping down, is among the lawmakers present at the meeting.

While most of the legislators arrived at the presidential villa together in a coaster bus around 2pm, Obasa arrived separately about 30 minutes later.
Sources say the meeting is aimed at restoring unity within the Lagos APC and ensuring stability in the state legislature.
Discussions are still ongoing at the time of this report.
