Kayode Ajulo, solicitor to Senator Iyola Omisore says the National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has not resigned from his office.
Ajulo told the Agency of Nigeria, in Abuja on Monday, that it was unlikely for both the party National Chairman, Sen Abdullahi Adamu and Omisore to vacate their offices at the same time.
He described the rumoured resignation of Omisore as baseless and unfounded, saying the former Osun senator would attend the meeting of the National Working Committee (NWC) as scheduled.
He said Omisore’s resignation will be a personal decision and that he has not been forced to resign as being insinuated in some quarters.

Speaking on the plan to address challenges confronting Nigerians, the VP said, “The president is determined to define the meaning and concept of modern governance, and the crisis we have in the North-West which is further accentuated by poverty. The social exclusion is also something that the president is determined to frontally confront and in the coming weeks he is going to unveil the Pulaku solution.
“Unless we want to engage in an endless war of attrition, there cannot be a military solution to the crisis in the North-West. There has to be a kinetic and non-kinetic solution.
“In the next couple of weeks, we will unveil the Pulaku solution which will address the grievances and social exclusion of our Fulbe cousins in the North- West and also towards addressing the root causes of all the banditry and insurgency in the nation,” Sen. Shettima explained further.

A group of Juventus fans have rejected the club’s decision to sign Romelu Lukaku from Chelsea.
The fans have gathered outside the club’s medical centre, chanting, ‘We don’t want Lukaku’.
Lukuka is said to be heading to Juventus after Inter Milan pulled out of the race to sign the Belgium international on a permanent basis.
Reports suggest that Lukaku angered his former club by courting interest from rivals Juve.
Lukaku is said to have spoken to Juventus over a possible transfer this summer through his agent, with Juve looking to sell Dusan Vlahovic.
However, Juve fans – who regularly gather outside the club’s J Medical Centre to spot new signings – have made their voice heard about the Belgian striker.
