Tinubu told to review stance on Oshiomhole to avert APC collapse
ASABA
– Former All Progressives Congress, APC, presidential aspirant, Alhaji
Mumakai Unagha, has implored the National Leader of the party, Asiwaju
Bola Tinubu, to reappraise his support for the National Chairman,
Comrade Adams Oshiomhole to save the party from crumbling.
Unagha,
in a statement warned that the party would be hit with fresh exodus of
high-profile members, including governors, Senate, House of
Representatives and House of Assembly members if Oshiomhole was not
removed as national chairman of the party.
“What is of a great
concern is the position taken by the National leader of the party,
Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. We urge him to have a rethink on Oshiomhole to
allow him go before it is too late for the party.” “Oshiomhole was
sponsored to kill the party, leading to the various crisis and defection
of notable party leaders. President Muhammadu Buhari should take
precise decision to save the party from total collapse ahead of the
general election.
“Many party leaders across board are already
warming up to leave, while some are already gone. If Oshiomhole is not
removed between now and then, the party will lose most of the
Governorship, Senatorial, Reps and Houses of Assembly members across the
nation,” he warned. His words: Oshiomhole has destroyed the APC beyond
imagination and we APC faithful cannot fold our hands.”
“Adams
Oshiomhole, the national chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC)
is a fundamental error as the National Chairman of the party. “There is
no doubt, President Muhammadu Buhari may not be aware of the
inefficiency of the national chairman before he endorsed him. Had he
known, he would not have allowed him. “The chairman has taken the party
5,000 steps backward. On behalf of other ex-presidential aspirants and
me, we insist that Adams Oshiomhole must go or the party risk defeat in
2019 general election.
“Oshiomhole has thrown the rule of law
into dustbin as he does not respect judgment of any court of competent
jurisdiction. He also does not have what it takes to unite and solve the
crisis he created and which is rocking the party,” Unagha asserted.
