Oshiomhole’s Associates Ask Bagudu To Show Loyalty By Dismissing Lukman As DG Govs’ Forum

By Chuks Ekpeneru

Edo State APC Stakeholders aligned to Comrade Adams Oshiomhole have called on Governor Bagudu Atiku to show he is not part of the conspiracy against the national chairman of the party by calling on Salihu Lukman, the Director-General, of the APC Progressives Governors Forum (PGF) to order.

The APC stakeholders in a statement in Abuja issued by the chairman, Francis Inegbeneki and Suleiman Bagudu, secretary accused Lukman of being an agent of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP given what they claimed as his persistent attacks on Oshiomhole.

“We use this opportunity to also call on the chairman of the APC PGF, Governor Abubakar Atiku Bagudu, to call his DG to order unless he is the one fuelling the insults against Oshiomhole.

“It is even an insult on the governors to see their national chairman being attacked persistently by their DG. It is uncalled for and unacceptable to us.

“Edo APC will not tolerate any attempt to take Oshiomhole for granted by bread-and-butter men like Lukman,” they said in reaction to Lukman’s memo to the Bisi Akande Reconciliation Committee wherein he accused Oshiomhole, of being the problem in the APC.

“We find that statement as malicious as it was insulting and we have given the sycophantic DG of the forum seven days to withdraw the offensive statement and apologise to Comrade Oshiomhole or risk legal action.

“Whereas, the entire content of his so-called memo is tantamount to arrant nonsense, he has, as a matter of fact, ceased being the DG of the PGF from the day he decided to market his soul to those who were afraid of the on-going reforms in the APC being spearheaded by the Oshiomhole-led NWC.

“He obviously has turned himself to a PDP man, masquerading as an associate of APC governors. For so long, we have kept quiet to his tantrums against the APC national chair, thinking that himself and his co-travelers, including Edo State governor, Godwin Obaseki, would turn a new leaf but they have persisted in their evil plot against Oshiomhole.”
