“Having taken firm control of the structure of the APC at the national level, I wish to remind him of the huge responsibility laid on his shoulder and encourage him to do everything humanly possible to reposition the party to withstand the deadly plots ...
By next week it would be clear whether the much talked about emergency meeting of the National Executive Committee of the party has something in store for the leaders and faithful.
The opportunity to fill the vacancy in the office of the National Secretary was defrayed by President Muhammadu Buhari, who endorsed an automatic second term for Bunu and other members of the National Working Committee , including Chief George Moghalu, shortly before the last national convention of the party in 2018.
Admitting that the Rivers State-born acting National Secretary is a fantastic and intelligent strategist, Eze said: “As the Acting National Secretary, Chief Giadom formally takes over the administration and running of the ruling party with the approval of President Mohammadu Buhari. Then being a product of a motion on notice, the interlocutory injunction granted by the FCT High Court would most likely subsist pending the determination of the substantive matter. There is scant likelihood that the embattled national chairman’s application for a stay of execution or appeal would bear fruitful returns. The fact that the Presidency Okayed the emergency NEC meeting tends to expose such indication.
But despite the profusion of optimism among the pro-Giadom camp, supporters of Oshiomhole are not leaving thing to chance, believing that at the end of the day, it is only a national convention that could remove him from office as national chairman. Oshiomhole seems not to know how formidable his traducers are, because it was from the same Northwest geopolitical zone that calls for his ouster emanated, through the hotly worded letter by Senator Lawal Shuaibu, in which the national chairman was asked to resign.
The first time the matter against Oshiomhole made headlines was two years ago, when a Federal High Court sitting in Abuja granted an order to serve court papers on an application praying for an order of mandamus to compel EFCC to arrest and charge the national chairman to court.
