Lafiagi says he is not at loggerhead with Sen Pres. Bukola Saraki

CHAIRMAN, Senate Committee on Security and
Intelligence, Senator Shaaba Lafiagi (APC, Kwara North),
has denied reports that he was at loggerheads with
Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki, describing the report
as a false and fabrication designed to overheat the polity.
Senator Lafiagi also described as untrue report that he
was planning to circumvent the position of the Senate
President as leader of All Progressives Congress, APC, in
Kwara State, adding that it was all part of the plot to
create the impression that there was crisis in Kwara
State, home state of the Senate President.
In a statement yesterday, the former Kwara State
governor described as untrue reports that he had fallen
out with Senator Saraki over the 2019 governorship
nomination in the state.
He said: “My attention has been drawn to a report over
the perceived crisis in Kwara State because of my alleged
governorship ambition and other falsehood contained in
the said report.
“I wish to state that the report is nothing but bunkum,
absolute falsehood and full of fabrications.”
