Adams Oshiomhole

The Edo state chapter of the All Progressive Congress, APC have called on the National Chairman of the party, Adams Oshiomhole to resign from his position.

The APC Chairman in the state, Anselm Ojezua called on Oshiomhole to either resign or excuse himself from all official functions of the party.

Ojezua who spoke during a World Press Conference at the APC Secretariat in Airport Road, Benin City, said that Oshiomhole lacked legitimacy, temperament and moral authority to lead the party.

He said “In any case, having been placed on suspension as a member of the party, he has lost the legitimacy to act in any capacity in the party.

“We draw particular attention to Article 21 of the Constitution of the Party which relates to the discipline of party members and the powers of respective organs of the party to take disciplinary actions against members.

“In the circumstance, any action taken in the capacity of national chairman including documents he signs and meetings he presides over may well be futile as his membership is already compromised. In particular, we are guided by the admonition of President Muhammadu Buhari who has consistently maintained that we must live up to the tenets and provisions of the Constitution of the All Progressives Congress.

“Mr. President has also maintained, quite rightly, that anybody who is not relevant in his Ward, Local Government Area and State cannot hold office at the National Level.

“We, therefore, urge Comrade Adams Oshiomhole to do the honourable thing and resign or be precluded from functioning in the office while his suspension subsists.

“Arising from the recent controversies and false narratives presented by Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, (Suspended National Chairman of the APC), it has become necessary to set the facts straight and properly inform Nigerians of the true circumstances concerning the affairs of our dear party in Edo State. It is clear that there had all along been a grand plan to falsely create the impression of a crisis of leadership within the party in the State and these plans were hatched and executed under the directive of Comrade Adams Oshiomhole and executed through his acclaimed “infantry division”
