The senator was reportedly ostracised for allegedly working against the interest of the party’s South-West leadership and for taking sides with Senate President Bukola Saraki. Alasoadura was also among the senators that followed Saraki to the Code of Conduct Tribunal in solidarity on Tuesday.  Punch reports that a reliable source within the party said Alasoadura had been sidelined from all APC South-West meetings for his disloyalty to Tinubu.
