Colleagues of the Speaker of Lagos House of Assembly, Hon. Mudashiru Ajayi Obasa have promised to support him in his political journey as well as constantly set the records straight where necessary.

The lawyers made the promise when they paid the Speaker a solidarity visit at his office.

The lawyers lamented the damage fake and unverified news have done to Nigeria and the psyche of the people of the country.

They said the solidarity visit, apart from standing with him, was an opportunity to confirm that Obasa, who is the chairman of the Conference of Speakers of State Legislatures in Nigeria, graduated from the Law School against claims by an online medium, Sahara Reporters.

They also presented copies of journals with the photograph of the Speaker and others in the set at the period in Law School.

The lawyers were led by Barrister Benjamin Waive, who had earlier denounced the story by Sahara Reporters that the Speaker did not attend law school.

The former school mates told the Speaker that they were appalled by the story.

They assured the Speaker that they are willing to go to any length to prove to the world that he was their colleague at the school.
