Hon. Jubreel Abdulkareem, a member of the Lagos State House of Assembly from APC, has praised the leadership qualities of Rt. Hon. Obasa, the Speaker of the Assembly. He commended Obasa for effectively managing the diverse personalities in the House, likening them to lions.
He drew a parallel to the leadership of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu, former governor of Lagos State and current President of Nigeria, noting the positive impact on development during his tenure. Abdulkareem expressed optimism about continued progress under Tinubu's leadership at the federal level.
As per The Sun, He said, "Rt. Hon. Obasa has leadership quality and it is still intact and showing in different areas of his job as Speaker of the Lagos State House of Assembly. We know that those who are in the House are not of the same personality, orientation and background with him. If he can manage the 40 KINNIUN (Lions) as we call them, we must give kudos to him. He is indeed a good man.
It was the same thing we said of Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu when he was the governor of the state. Today, he is the President of Nigeria and everyone can see the results in terms of development. Things are really taking shape within a year he was sworn in as the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Even beyond the expectations of those who say they are in the opposition parties."
