• Again, APC governors’ forum DG renews call for national chairman’s removalThe crisis in the All Progressives Congress worsened on Tuesday when the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja upheld the suspension of Adams Oshiomhole as the APC national chairman.

The main suit leading to the order earlier suspending Oshiomhole was instituted before the FCT High Court by six applicants, including the Vice-Chairman of the party, North-East, Mustapha Salihu, and the Chairman of the party in Edo State, Anslem Ojezua. But the Justice Onyemanam-led panel, which was appointed to hear the substantive appeal, re-imposed the suspension in its judgment delivered on Tuesday.Oshiomhole, who was present in court, was represented by Damien Dodo . He did not grant any interview after the judgment.

He said the November 2, 2019 decision of the party in Ward 10 in Etsako LGA suspending him from office was ratified by the local government and state executives. She held that it was untrue that the plaintiffs had two pending suits on the same subject matter before the same court. She also held that the plaintiffs had locus standi to institute the suit, contrary to Oshiomhole’s contention.

When asked to state specifically why he resigned his membership of the party, Obaseki said, “I am sure that the whole country knows and is aware of what has gone on with me and the party chairman and the party leadership, which culminated in my disqualification as a governorship aspirant. “Maybe the inconsistency in the National Youth Service Corps certificate where he said an ‘i’ was missing at the end of my surname. But if you look at that, it was like a cursive, it was written in a cursive manner. So if that’s inconsistency for him, then it’s really sad that people of that quality are leading the Nigeria’s ruling party.

He stated, “You are afraid of people who are educated because you didn’t go to school. You are afraid of people who have something to offer because all you know to offer is brigandage, crisis. Shaibu made the announcement during a press briefing, saying that his resignation from the ruling party took immediate effect.When contacted, the Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the APC, Yekini Nabena, said the governor had a funny way of showing “that he went to school.”
