Edo election: APC speaks on expelling Oshiomhole after Obaseki defeated Ize-Iyamu

 

The faction of the Edo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC, has dismissed claims of plotting to expel Adams Oshiomhole, former National Chairman of the party.

 

The Aslem Ojezua-led faction said the rumour making the rounds that the APC faction has written the national body of the party informing it of their plans to expel to end Oshiomhole’s membership of the ruling party was false.

Speaking with Nation, Ojezua said the opposition party in the state was yet to meet to review the just concluded governorship election.

According to Ojezua, “We have not met. We are meeting on Thursday to review the entire situation. That is when we will make our decision known by way of formal briefing. We have not met. We shall meet on Thursday.”

A tweet, allegedly by Ajezua on Tuesday had read, “I have written to the APC National headquarters that I and all the party chairmen down to the ward level have all signed the petition to completely expel Adams Oshiomhole from our great Party.”
