Gbajabiamila concedes defeat, pledges loyalty to Rep speaker Dogara

Hon. Femi Gbajabiamila on Thursday June 11, pledged loyalty to the leadership of the Speaker of the House of Representatives, Hon. Yakubu Dogara after he conceded defeat and promised to work with Mr Dogara to deliver on campaign promises.

Gbajabiamila said this while addressing newsmen in Abuja after an emergency meeting by the National Working Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

''We will work with the leadership of the house and with the speaker for as long as the party’s programmes are properly articulated and pursued on the floor of the house. He is an APC member but not the speaker of the APC but of the House of Representatives of the country. So we will work with him and support him. As loyal party members, we will not take any step that is going to affect the interest, peace, order and good governance of this country. The emergence of the leadership of the National Assembly is a reality on ground as far as the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria is concerned,''  he said.
