Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Yekini Nabena, yesterday raised the alarm that the ruling party might lose the governorship elections in Kogi, Bayelsa, Edo, Ondo and Anambra states holding between this year and next on account of the protracted face-off between its National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole and his successor, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun.
Deploring the row, which he stated was weakening the political during a chat with reporters in Abuja, the Bayelsa-born politician said information at his disposal revealed that the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP) was exploiting the crack to clinch the affected states.He appealed to the combatants to put their personal interests aside for the interest of the party with a view to avoiding the looming doom.

The spokesman said Odigie-Oyegun, who he described as an elder statesman, should be seen making peace instead of adding “salt to the injury.”He enjoined the party ex-chair to tell Governor Godwin Obaseki the “truth and not encourage illegality which is currently happening at the Edo State House of Assembly.”

On the leadership crises at the Bauchi and Edo Houses of Assembly, Nabena stated: “This is not an issue of politics. The party’s position is very clear that the right thing should be done not just in Bauchi State, which has a PDP governor, but also in Edo State, which has an APC governor. The respective houses must be transparently and properly convened in line with set rules and democratic standards.”He, therefore, warned that the two feuding chieftains would be held responsible if PDP takes over Edo State next year.

Meanwhile, Special Adviser to Edo Governor on Media and Communication Strategy, Crusoe Osagie, has faulted the ruling party’s National Publicity Secretary, Mallam Lanre Issa-Onilu, saying his recent statement has confirmed that Oshiomhole was allegedly sponsoring the state assembly crisis.

In a statement yesterday in Benin City, the governor’s aide described the endorsement by Issa-Onilu as a slap on the face of the nation’s judiciary which had restrained the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) from interfering in the affairs of the assembly.

It's very obvious that Edo state will be joining the rest of the SS in PDP. The good people of Edo state will never allow Oshiomole's overbearing and thuggish leadership stand. No room for godfatherism in Edo state

Ok

kogi the meeting point

Where ever obaseki go we follow...

Remove President Buhari from APC any time, APC goes to Golgotha, crumbles.


APC is a party of politicians for their individual convenience.

Buhari sef.... Why is this man this crude

Na dem sabi

Even knows that APC is a loser in those State...

Ok. Fingers crossed.

For kogi, if bello show face, apc will lose that seat

For edo I can't tell.

Have they been winning elections before.
We know their antics. Rigging their way out

A house divided against itself cannot stand. APC has done horribly in Kogi especially, pls its time to give kogians a break.

A better Nigeria is all we want.

All indigenes of these states mentioned should ask their governors what plans they have for their future and what are they doing with the BILLIONS OF NAIRA in monthly allocation they get from the Federal Government.

Nigeria will be great again.

. You want better Nigeria with BUBU at the helm of the affair of this nation?

Party man you better change!

If they lose, who that one help.


Abeg go get me my bread and beans plus one Cold Coca-Cola.

PDP is a better party than APC. APC as a party is full of too many intrigues, crisis and confusion at all levels. For APC everything is about politics, lies, horse-trading and deceit. They are very less concerned about governance and well being of the people

If obaseki decamp to PDP then APC is dead in Edo state.
.

Currently PDP controls 2 senate positions and half of house of reps members, I'm pro PDP but I'll vote obaseki no matter the party,same with many edolites

Make una use the remote control strategy you used in winninvlg Ekiti and Osun state?

Lalastica!!!
