The Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Yussuf Lasun, again on Monday, insisted he will resist any level of pressure on him to step down.
DAILY POST recalls that there have been pressures from some All Progressives Congress, APC, leaders, Chieftains and the government of Osun State on 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 the embattled deputy Speaker said his constituency has been playing prominent role for the victory of the opposition party which is now the ruling party since 2007, insisting that stepping down was not possible for him.
Lasun stated this when people from his constituency under the umbrella of the Ilobu Development Association, Osun, Abuja branch, paid a solidarity visit to him in his office.
