The All Progressives Congress
(APC) in Edo North senatorial district has vowed to resist alleged attempts by
the Edo State government to tarnish the image of the party’s national chairman,
Comrade Adams Oshiomhole.
Leaders of the party in the
senatorial district urged the State governor, Godwin Obaseki, to call his media
team to order, alleging that they had embarked on campaign of calumny against
Oshiomhole, with a view to joining his political opponents across the nation in
scandalizing his name.
The leaders, after a meeting on
Monday, made the call in a communiqué signed by High Chief Aloye, Chief
(Alhaji) Usman Mogaji Charlton and Ahmed Musa Momoh.
According to the communique, ”the
meeting passed a vote of confidence on the leadership of the national chairman
of the APC, COMRADE Oshiomhole. We gathered to basically react to the
publication in the Nation Newspapers, which tends to portray in bad light the
party primaries conducted by the Oshiomhole led NWC.
“We have no doubt that the advert
was orchestrated by those in Osadebey Avenue who rose to power and suddenly
forgot how they got there. We condemned that publication and urged the State
Government to stop playing hide and seek game in its attempt to rubbish the
legacies of Oshiomhole which we will surely resist.
“The leaders also reaffirmed that
the National Chairman remains the undisputed leader of APC in Edo North and Edo
State respectively. They resolved to always stand by him and stand for him at
all times.
“The leaders warned those
attempting to destroy the hard-earned amiable character and reputation of the
APC National Chairman to desist from such unwholesome practice.”
“The meeting was attended by
leaders drawn from the 64 wards in Edo North senatorial district” it stated.
