Nasarawa State Deputy Governor Dameshi Luka Barau has said that his suspension from the All Progressive Congress (APC) is not justifiable.
The deputy governor who has been on Christian conference in the United States of America (USA) made this known while addressing journalists at his country home, Ningo in Akwanga Local Governerment Area of the state.
According to Dameshi, his position on the blockage of executive bills by National Assembly members was made as a concerned citizen of Nigeria and not as a deputy governor.
He added that when issues of national interest are discussed, they shouldn’t be done with sentiments.
When asked his next line of action should the APC expel him as threatened by the state chairman of the party, Stanley Buba, the deputy said he would make public his plans as events unfold.
“When we get to the bridge, we shall cross it”, he said. It would be recalled that the deputy governor was suspended on February 4, by the state’s APC chairman, Stanley Buba on grounds that he countered the decision of the national leadership of the party which instructed members of the National Assembly to block all executive bills.
