APC State Chairmen Deny Passing Vote Of Confidence On Oshiomhole
The administrative crisis rocking the All Progressives Congress (APC) deepened yesterday as the party’s Forum of State Chairmen denied passing a vote of confidence endorsing the continuation of Adams Oshiomhole as the party’s national chairman.
The forum, in a statement issued by its publicity secretary, Lawal Liman, revealed that the members had, however, scheduled a meeting to harmonise their thought before the March 17 emergency National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting.
The other faction of the forum had on Monday, passed a vote of confidence on the embattled national chairman through a statement allegedly signed by the forum’s chairman, Ali Bukar Dalori and the secretary, Dr. Ben Nwoye.
However, dismissing the confidence vote, the publicity secretary dissociated the forum from the fraudulent vote of confidence on the suspended APC national chairman, Oshiomhole.
Insisting that there was no such decision reached by the forum, the spokesperson argued that the house never met to decide on such a sensitive issue.
He said that they will meet before the NEC meeting, scheduled for next week, Tuesday, March 17, 2020, frowning that some members of the forum had been calling to find out the veracity of the statement as soon as they saw the statement.
