National Vice Chairman North East, Comrade Salihu Mustapha, said the former Deputy National Secretary did not resign but was given a waiver to contest, adding he was also given a letter when he returned after the election to NWC.
The leadership crisis rocking the ruling All Progressives Congress took a new twist on Sunday when National Vice Chairman North East, Comrade Salihu Mustapha, said former deputy National Secretary, Victor Giadom did not resign but was given waiver to contest the deputy governorship election in Rivers State in 2019.
He said: “These two letters are invalid. They are as useless as the paper there are written on because neither the chairman or the NWC has the power to grant waiver on such issue”. The letter, addressed to him and signed by Oshiomhole as presented by Mustapha reads,: “Re: Application for waiver under Article 31 of the APC constitution.
“The NWC has also approved your resumption as the National Secretary in Acting capacity in line with Article 14.4 of the Constitution of our great party pending the election of a substantive National Secretary.When told that the party has replaced Giadom with Mr. Worgu Boms, the National Vice Chairman said such action has no place in law.
Reacting to Mustapha, Issa-Onilu said:” There is no such waiver our party’s constitution and 100 of such letters been brandished by Mustapha or Giadom cannot contradict our constitution.
