Stakeholders of the
All Progressives Congress, APC, on the auspices of Governors’ Mandate Network,
has asked governors elected on the platform of the ruling party to immediately
find a worthy replacement for the suspended National Chairman of the party, Adams
Oshiomhole.
Oshiomhole was
suspended on Wednesday by an FCT High Court.
Earl Osaro Onaiwu,
the Chairman of the group, told reporters in Abuja on Wednesday that the
governors should quickly leverage the opportunity provided by the High Court to
salvage the party from impending ruin.
Onaiwu said the APC
governors should urgently nominate a replacement for Oshiomhole, at least in an
acting capacity.
“The truth is that
the governors are the real custodians of the party being very close to all the
stakeholders at the grassroots, hence they cannot afford to be laid back when
things seem not to be working well in their party.
“The Abuja Court has
provided them the leeway to restructure and refocus their party away from the
brigandage promoted by Oshiomhole,” he said.
An FCT High Court in
Jabi, Abuja, suspended Oshiomhole as the National Chairman of the APC.
The court ordered
Oshiomhole to step down pending the determination of the substantive suit
seeking his removal as the APC chairman.
Justice Danlami
Senchi gave the ruling in an application of interlocutory injunction following
his suspension as a member of the APC from Etsako ward 10 in Edo State.
