There was pandemonium in the early hours of Monday as security operatives led by men of the Department of State Services (DSS), stormed the Lagos State House of Assembly and sealed up the offices of the Speaker, Mojisola Meranda, her Deputy and Clerk of the House.
A video of the invasion of the Assembly shared online showed the security men dressed in black jackets and helmets and armed with weapons, engaging in a heated struggle with workers at the chamber’s entrance and disrupting proceedings in the process.
They were also seen barricading the entrance of the Assembly complex located at Alausa, Ikeja, frisking visitors and other passersby.
