There was heavy security presence at the Lagos State House of Assembly on Monday.
Officials of the Department of State Security Services, Nigeria Police Force, and Lagos State Task Force were seen stationed at the Assembly complex main gate to ensure adequate security.
The security tension is likely unconnected with the change of leadership at the House.
Meanwhile, amidst the uncertainty, the Speaker of the House arrived to the cheers of other lawmakers.
The lawmakers expressed their confidence in the leadership of Right Honourable Meranda as the House settles to plenary.
