Dogara, Lasun Absent In APC NEC Meeting

The speaker of the house of representatives, Yakubu Dogara and his deputy, Yusuf Lasun were absent at today’s national executive committee (NEC) meeting of the All Progressives Congress(APC) held in Abuja.

This is coming amidst speculations that the speaker is considering exiting the party for the Peoples Democratic Party(PDP) just like the Senate President Bukola Saraki.

President Muhammadu Buhari, Vice-President Yemi Osinbajo and Bola Tinubu, a national leader of the APC, are among influential APC members in attendance.

At the meeting, Adams Oshiomhole, national chairman of the APC, conveyed the apologies of the speaker to the party leaders.

Although Dogara has been silent on his next political move, the nation’s number four citizen is reportedly unhappy with the leadership of the APC.
