Lagos State House of Assembly has described as malicious and unfounded reports making the rounds on social media that it has secretly passed a sharia law in a deal to get Northern support for the APC Presidential Candidate, Bola Ahmed Tinubu,
A statement signed by the House Committee Chairman on Information, Security and Strategy Setonji David described the allegation as a mere figment of the writer’s imagination and far from the reality.
The statement noted that the assembly would not pass a law without subjecting it to public hearing in the state describing the peddlers of the report as illiterate and uninformed people who needed to be schooled about law making process.
