The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yakubu Dogara, on Friday insisted that he would not resign from his position.
Speaking with State House Correspondent shortly after a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the State House, Abuja, the Speaker described the current budget padding levelled against him as an offence, affirming that despite the many allegations against him and his office, he will remain in his position.
Recall that a member of the House, Jibrin had accused Dogara, his deputy, Yusuf Lasun; Chief Whip, Alhassan Ado Danguwa and Minority Leader, Leo Ogor of attempting to illegally insert over N40bn into the 2016 budget.
Since his initial allegation against the Speaker and other principal officers of the House, the lawmaker had continued to level more allegations on them.
