It was a historic feat today in Lagos as the Lagos State House of Assembly passed the Value Added Tax Bill and anti-open grazing bill, with Speaker Mudashiru Obasa directing the Acting Clerk of the House, Mr.
Olalekan Onafeko, to transmit a clean copy to Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu for assent.
The two bills were passed after unanimous votes by the lawmakers at the sitting where the bills were read the third time.
Immediately after their passage, Speaker Obasa commended his colleagues for their passion to see that the state continues to grow.
“I thank you all for this historic exercise,” Obasa said.
It will be recalled that the Southern governors have agreed to enact anti open grazing law in their respective states, while of recent, the River State governor is adamant of taking control of the Value Added Tax in the state, and taking the collection from the Federal Internal Revenue Service.
