Oshiomhole, APC governors, hold emergency meeting in Abuja
The national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, alongside state governors of the ruling party, on Friday, August 23, held an emergency meeting in Abuja.
Although the agenda of the emergency meeting was not known, the gathering was attended by members of the the Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), The Nation reports.
Earlier, Legit.ng reported that the PGF had written Oshiomhole saying the latter is responsible for the party’s declining fortunes.
The reported verdict by the governors comes barely three weeks after the APC expelled Inuwa Abdulkadir, northwest zonal vice chairman of the ruling party.
In a letter by its director-general, Salihu Lukman, to the APC national chairman, the PGF hit Oshiomhole saying his tenure as head of the party is bad.

In the letter dated August 6, 2019, Lukman said: “As a loyal party member, I have difficulty reconciling the absence of meetings of superior organs given all the challenges the party is going through, warranting the suspension of three serving governors (two of them now senators) and two members of the National Working Committee (NWC).”
In another post, Legit.ng reported that a former national chairman of the APC, John Odigie-Oyegun, had asked Oshiomhole to stop disgracing the party and the people of Edo state.
This is coming after Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo state was indicted by the House of Representatives ad-hoc committee for not properly issuing a proclamation for the inauguration of the state assembly.
