Obasa was replaced by Meranda after being removed by the majority of House members on 13th of January, 2025, following allegations of misconduct and financial misappropriation.
However, he denied the allegations on Saturday, challenging the lawmakers to substantiate their claims.
Today’s plenary will be the third session presided over by Meranda since Obasa’s removal, with the former Speaker absent from the previous two sittings.
