The attention of the Deputy Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon Lasun Yussuff has been drawn to rumours that he is planning to leave the ruling All Progressives Congress APC for the opposition, Peoples Democratic Party PDP.
The Deputy Speaker regards the insinuations as an imagination of naysayers and rumour mongers.
Contrary to reports that he will defect to the People’s Democratic Party such speculations is untrue, absurd, laughable and a cheap blackmail by political adversaries who want to call a dog a bad name in order to hang it.
Why would he take such evil step that is even more evil than ascribing partners to God. He will remain in the party, APC to actualize his political aspirations irrespective of the speculations.
The Deputy Speaker is committed to contributing his quota to building the party and helping it to deliver its promise of change to the people of his constituency, the state and Nigeria at large. So, why would he defect?
He has not defected and neither does he have plans to leave the APC.
Neither has the Deputy Speaker at any point in time held clandestine meetings with Members of the opposition party especially the PDP that He will join their party.
The Deputy Speaker however urges members of the public to disregard any rumour and that he still remains a staunch member of the progressive fold.
Hon Lasun Yussuff advises rumour mongers to stop peddling lies or Face the “Wrath of God”.
