HOW BUHARI, TINUBU SAVED OSHIOMHOLE FROM DOWNFALL
 |
| Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC. |
Comrade Adams Oshiomhole,
no doubt has become a political leader with nine lives, courtesy of the
salvation offered him by President Muhammadu Buhari and the former Lagos state Governor
and leader of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The National Chairman of
the ruling party has been embattled of late, following the accusation of
high-handedness levelled against him by some members of the party, for which
they had called for his head.
According to Saturday Vanguard’s reports, in spite of the
string of electoral losses by the party in the last general elections, both the
president and the former Lagos state Governor believe in the capacity of
Comrade Oshiomhole to stir the party out of troubled waters.
The development, the
report added, has now forced some hitherto complacent governors of the party to
now align with the national chairman, a move that has thwarted efforts by some
stakeholders in the states to rise against the Chairman.
A source was quoted as
saying, “So long as the two men who brought him to power are still backing him,
Oshiomhole is going nowhere, mark my words on that. You can see that Shuaibu is
on his own and that is why they didn’t invite him to yesterday’s National
Working Committee, NWC meeting. “
It will be recalled that a
former governor of Edo State, Chief John Odigie Oyegun stirred the hornets’
nest by derogating Oshiomhole as an incompetent leader.
