The North-East youth wing of the
All Progressives Congress, APC, has called for the sack of the party’s national
chairman, Adams Oshiomhole.
They said Oshiomhole’s “crass and
ghetto mentality” would lead to the total collapse of APC, if allowed to
remain.
In a statement issued on Thursday
by Abubakar Maigari, the secretary of the organisation claimed that Oshiomhole
has created confusion and eventual loss of some states to the opposition in the
2019 elections.
The statement reads: “Several
members of the ruling party have been lost to the opposition since Oshiomhole
became APC National Chairman on June 23, 2018, yet, the looming 9th National
Assembly leadership election crisis may threaten the corporate existence of the
ruling party. Oshiomhole is now akin to a bull in a China warehouse that has to
be guided and shown out quickly, otherwise in less than a year from now, APC
shall be confined to the dustbin of history.
“Barely a month after Oshiomhole
assumed the APC national chairmanship, 15 senators and 37 House of
Representatives members decamped, mostly to the PDP on Tuesday July 24, 2018,
just as Senate President Bukola Saraki and Speaker Yakubu Dogara followed suit
later.
‘’Oshiomhole may wish to say it
was not his making, but politics is about making creative interventions by
muddling through and not reaching out with unguided statements drawn from crass
and ghetto mentality.
“Apart from the lawmakers,
governors of Benue, Sokoto and Kwara states announced their defections also
from the APC to PDP under his watch.
‘’Through Oshiomhole’s
pronouncements and actions, Zamfara and Imo governorship crisis were fomented.
At the end of the day, APC lost governorship seats in Bauchi, Adamawa, Imo,
Oyo, Benue, Sokoto and with court decisions, also in Zamfara and Osun states.
‘’Senator Ndume and Senator
Omo-Agege were separately suspended for 90 legislative days in the defence of
APC and Buhari administration policy, yet Oshiomhole wants those who have been
hand in gloves and partner with senate leadership to sabotaging Buhari’s
government be rewarded.”
