National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams
Oshiomhole, sang a conciliatory tune on Tuesday when he enjoined his colleagues
in the National Working Committee to put the interests of Nigerians first.
He also suggested that the first post-crisis NWC should be
devoted to “having a conversation around the coronavirus”.
Oshiomhole, holding his ‘rival’ Victor Giadom, said, “If it is one hour that
we spend here, let us have a conversation around this issue.”
According to him, it should be an issue of concern that
other countries were closing their international borders to contain the spread
of the virus but Nigeria has yet to follow suit.
He explained that recent challenges the party had had to
deal with were normal in a democratic setting.
Oshiomhole said, “Party Politics is about contestations. I
am not the best chairman in the world and I don’t claim to be so, you can fault
my style but you cannot fault my sincerity.
“The NWC is not divided. None of us seated here wants to
destroy our party. My style is my style but I’ve learnt to reconcile my style
with the style of others.”
The meeting, which is underway had most members of the 21
member NWC irrespective of which side they took during the crisis in
attendance.
