Deputy Speaker House of Representative Yusuf Lasun |
As the National Assembly resumes on Tuesday
Deputy Speaker of House of Representatives, Yusuf Lasun says no amount of
pressure will make him step down from his position.
There have been pressure from some APC
leaders, Chieftains and the government of Osun State for the Deputy Speaker to
resign for Femi Gbajabiamila who was the party’s adopted candidate in the
election of presiding officer of the House on June 9.
But Lasun said that his constituency
has been playing prominent role for the victory of the opposition party which
is now the ruling party since 2007, adding that stepping down was not possible
for him.
The Deputy Speaker stated this when
his kinsmen, the Ilobu Development Association, Osun, Abuja branch paid a
solidarity visit to him at his office.
Nigerians are however watching as the drama unfolds in the lower chambers of the National assembly, be assured that we would be there to give you all the details.
