…Faults Endorsement as Oshiomhole’s Replacement

The Deputy National Secretary of the All Progressives
Congress
(APC), Victor Giadom, officially resigned his position in the National
Working Committee (NWC) to contest as running mate to the party’s 2019
governorship candidate in Rivers State, Tonye Cole.

APC’s Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Mr. Yekini Nabena
made the disclosure to newsmen on Saturday in Abuja while reacting to the
legality of of the National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting convened by
Giadom and his purported endorsement to replace Comrade Adams Oshiomhole as
National Chairman.

The APC Deputy Spokesman, who fulted Giadom’s endorsement to
replace Adams Oshiomhole, described as “strange and an aberration that
Giadom still attends meetings of the NWC and could call for a NEC meeting.

The Bayelsa-birn politicians called on stakeholders not to
lose sight of due process and the dictates of APC’s constitution.

Nabena said: “I call on members of our party and the
public to disregard the so called zonal caucus meeting which held on Thursday
at the Edo State Governor’s Lodge in Abuja. The meeting was neither convened
nor attended by the APC National Vice Chairman (South South), Hilliard Eta and
Leader of the party in the South-South, Deputy Senate President, Ovie
Omo-Agege. Hence, all decisions reached at the purported meeting is a nullity
and definitely does not reflect the views and stand of the Party’s South South
caucus.

“Specifically, on the purported meeting’s request that
the APC National Executive Committee (NEC) confirm Victor Giadom as acting
National Chairman, we cannot be taken for a ride because of the political and
2023 presidential aspirations of his (Giadom) sponsor and godfather who is
attempting to control the Party’s structure.

“It should be known that Victor Giadom tendered his
resignation letter to the National Working Committee (NWC) to contest the 2019
election as the Party’s Deputy Governorship candidate in Rivers State. It is
strange and an aberration that he still attends meetings of the NWC, occupies
the office of Deputy National Secretary and convenes a NEC meeting. In our
politicking, we must not lose sight of due process and the dictates of the
Party’s constitution.”

Gaidom had announced that he had taken over the running of
the party following the court-ordered suspension of Adams Oshiomhole as
national chairman.
