Abuja (Precise Post) – Against the move by the Amaechi/Obaseki South south faction of the All Progressives Congress against the embattled chairman of the party, the Deuty Senate President faction on Monday passed vote of confidence on President Muhammadu Buhari and Comrade Adams Oshiomhole-led national working committee.
This was contained in a communique at the end of their meeting in Abuja on Monday.
“We unanimously pass a Vote of Confidence on our leader, President Muhammadu Buhari for his qualitative leadership in running the affairs of our country and the National Chairman of our party, Adams Oshiomhole.
“Oshiomhole has done very well in the
administration of the affairs of our great party.
“We cannot allow ourselves to be used as agent of destabilisation of the party
we laboured so hard to build.
“Under the leadership of Oshiomhole, we won
the Presidential Election, majority of the seats at the National Assembly, and
also won governorship election in most states of the federation,’’ it said.
The communique added that the members also dissociated themselves from the NEC
meeting summoned by Mr Victor Giadom saying that he lacked the
constitutional power to do so.
“Mr Victor Giadom is not a member of National
Working Committee (NWC) having resigned his position as Deputy National
Secretary of the party to contest election in Rivers as Deputy Governorship
candidate during the 2019 General elections.
“We implore all members of NEC to respect the decision of the NWC that the NEC
meeting summoned by Giadom is illegal and unconstitutional,” it said.
Some of those present at the meeting included -Sen. Omo-Agege, Deputy Senate
President and APC Leader in South South and Mr Hilliard Eta, National Vice
Chairman, South.
Others were Mr E. I. Adoh-Ogbuta, Deputy National Legal Adviser, Dr Racheal
Akpabio, Zonal Women Leader and Mr Yekini Nabena, Deputy National Publicity
Secretary. (NAN)
