NASS crisis: “I’m still loyal to APC” – Alasoadura

Senator representing the Ondo State Central Senatorial District, Chief Tayo Alasoadura was the only south west senator that voted for Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki, going against his party directive to vote for senator Ahmed Lawan as the Senate President. Alasoadura in a statement issued by his Media assistant, Olu Isaac in Akure, the State Capital he said he had never disregarded the decisions of APC on any issue that was in conformity with the aspiration of the people he was representing.
He said it was his desire to lift-up Ondo State that motivated him to nominate his counterpart from Ondo North senatorial district, Ajayi Boroffice as Chief Whip at the APC caucus of the senate against the move to have a colleague from Osun State, consequent upon the fact that a member of the House of Representatives also from from Osun State was already the deputy Speaker.
He added that Boroffice, who is a ranking senator from Ondo State should have gladly embraced to serve in that capacity in the interest of the State as against his decision to be in solidarity with some interest always scheming to short-change Ondo State.
