Nigeria: No Breakup In APC Says Oshiomole and Abdullahi

  • There’s no break up; my friend, if one Galadima of no particular political address says that he’s not happy, that’s fine – Adams Oshiomole
  • The APC wishes to affirm that there is no faction in out party and declare the action by these individuals as mischievous and ill-advised. – Bolaji Abdullahi

 

The National Publicity Secretary Mallam Bolaji Abdullahi released a statement in which he stated that there was no faction in the APC.

He said “The APC wishes to affirm that there is no faction in out party and declare the action by these individuals as mischievous and ill-advised.”

He went further to explain that what was happening that some people who planned to scuttle the party’s national convention resorted to this new strategy after their earlier plans failed.

He went further to say “As a matter of fact, we doubt that these individuals parading as leaders of the so-called faction are actual members of our party. We are currently investigating their true membership status within the party.

“While we shall continue to monitor developments in this respect; we will not hesitate to take lawful actions to defend the unity of our party and protect the sanctity of its identity.

“We are currently reviewing the action of this so-called faction in order to determine if any aspect of the party’s constitution has been breached with the connivance of any of our members.

“For those members who have genuine grievances, we want to assure them of the commitment of the new leadership of the party to address those grievances as quickly as possible in a manner that ensures that justice is done to all.”

However, a known member of the APC, Senator Shehu Sani, while confirming the breakaway said “We the persecuted are on exodus, riding on horses, chariots and caravans, departing Pharaoh Thutmose’s Egypt; we are now at the coast of the red Sea, about to leave the land of cruelty and injustice.”

Even as it is clear to Nigerians that there is indeed a breakup in the APC, the party’s new Chairman, Adams Oshiomole insisted that there was no such thing.

While reacting to the news of a breakup, he said “There’s no break up; my friend, if one Galadima of no particular political address says that he’s not happy, that’s fine; he has the right not to be happy and if he now decides to call himself what he calls himself, I won’t lose my sleep over that.

“We know those who are in the system: those who are in politics for bread and butter, that’s their problem.

“We are engaging the real stakeholders; I mean between the executive and the two arms of government, we have very important influential leaders that we are engaging.”
