APC CRISIS: APC chieftain, Eze, highlights steps Oshiomhole must take

Chief Eze Chukwuemeka Eze, a former National Publicity Secretary of the defunct New Peoples Democratic Party (nPDP) and a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has called on the embattled National Chairman of the party, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, to apologise to party and honorably resign over “his untoward style of leadership”.

The APC chieftain who made the call in a statement issued on Sunday said that the alleged shame and embarrassment suffered by the party was due to Oshiomhole’s attitude which caused the party to lose some key states formerly under the firm grip and control of the APC.

Reacting further in the statement, Chief Eze further called on Oshiomhole to stop making further mockery of himself in order not to murder what remains of his person and the integrity of the ruling APC.

He said; “With 14 out of 19 state governors elected on the platform of APC endorsing the formal removal of Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, as the National Chairman coupled with his rejection by most APC stakeholders in Edo State and entire South-South region, it is obvious that instead of indulging in fruitless propaganda, Oshiomhole should take the honourable option by handing over an apology letter and his resignation.

“While it is obvious that Oshiomhole would not continue in office as national chairman under the present circumstances, the purported query issued to Chief Victor Giadom, the interim Coordinating Officer of APC by Oshiomhole is childish and laughable, because being suspended, he lacks the power to do so”.
