Oshomole’s Exit Now Certain, As APC Governors Disown Him

By Timi Johnson

The rumor of Adams Oshiomhole’s exit as Chairman of the
ruling All Progressives Congress seems to be coming to a reality. This is
evident as 13 out of the 20 APC Governors and over 60 stakeholders of the
party, endorsed the removal of the Comrade Chairman.

Comrade Adams Oshiomhole who was restrained by an FCT High
Court, from parading himself as the National Chairman, has in recent days
challenged the Sovereignty and Supremacy of the courts. His continued
Disrespect and Disobedience to the law, has necessitated the involvement of
critical stakeholders of the APC.

You may recall that Mr. Oshiomhole was recently suspended by
his party at his Ward, Local Government and State levels. It was on this
premise the injunction application was grounded. Allegations that triggered his
suspension include; alleged Highhandedness, Misappropriation of funds and
Disregard for the rule of law.

The ruling All Progressives Congress, has in recent days
been going through a lot of turmoil. After surviving major judicial upsets in
Zamfara and Rivers State during the buildup to the last elections, which
totally knocked them of the ballot; the APC has been battling with internal
Unity, especially in its NWC.

It was alleged that Comrade Adams, single handedly appointed
a National Secretary for the party without any constitutional backing.
Unconstitutionally attempting to input Lanre Issa-Onilu and Waziri Bulama into
the National Working Committee of the APC, was one of a sin too many.

A stalwart of the party, Dr. Aminu A. Zubaru has called on
the DSS, the Nigerian Police and all relevant agencies to investigate the
matter and arrest all guilty of impersonation and contempt of court, this
includes Adams Oshiomhole, for disobeying court orders and going against the
provisions of the party’s constitution.

According to Dr. Aminu, “Contrary to Article 20 of the Party
constitution any attempt to make Lanre Onilu or Waziri Bulama officials of the
Party is not just a breach of the constitution but also a contempt of court
proceedings.”

“As against the provisions of the APC constitution both Mr
Lanre and Arch Bulma never went through any convention as required by Article
20 of the constitution which demands that they be democratically elected; and
even where there is a consensus; a convention must ratify, said the party
faithful”.

“Lanre was smuggled into the National Working Committee in
the past and in the same manner Adams Oshiomhole tried to smuggle Arc Bulama
in. This will not stand. They are both impersonators and should be arrested
immediately”, he said.
