APC to Sack Oshiomhole as National Chairman next week...As President Buhari Okays his Removal

The sack of the suspended National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC Adams Oshiomhole may be concluded early next week with the go-ahead given by President Muhammadu Buhari for the National Executive Committee, NEC meeting of the Party scheduled for Tuesday.

A statement issued on Friday by Acting National Secretary, Victor Giadom says the meeting will hold by 3pm at the National Secretariat of the party in Abuja, the nation’s capital.

The party is expected to pick an Acting National Chairman as mandated by the constitution which abhors a vacuum in party leadership.

Oshiomhole’s quest to return as National Chairman after the suspension by a Federal High Court may have been effectively checked as the Party’s Constitution which provides for a national convention once in 2 years, the last having been held in 2018.

The appointment of an Acting Chairman appears to be the leeway for congresses and convention of the party this year.

The grand Conspiracy to sack Oshiomhole was given a bite with the interlocutory order of the FCT High Court which on Wednesday upheld his suspension from the party by his ward in Edo State where he is at loggerheads with the Governor, Godwin Obaseki.
