Adams Oshiomhole, national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has reiterated that he is not losing sleep over the breakaway Reformed-APC faction.

The former Edo governor says he has defeated powerful godfathers, stressing that “I will not miss my sleep because a lot of these guys cannot on a good day deliver their unit”.

Oshiomhole said this in reaction to a statement by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) that he is licking his vomit after his ‘no loss of sleep’ comment.

The PDP had said the APC chairman was making moves to woo the members of R-APC back into the ruling party.

But speaking on Monday after a meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari, Oshiomhole said: “You have seen me. Do I look like I’m losing sleep?”

The former president of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) said he is willing to “negotiate and persuade” but does not deal with “permanent political mercenaries”.

Oshiomhole said: “No, I am not losing sleep. I am sleeping very well. I still maintain that I don’t see any man of honour, who with his eyes open left PDP on the account of their gross mismanagement, abuse of the treasury and all of the crime that the PDP committed, I don’t see them whatever their irritations.

“That cannot be a justification to return a house that all we need to do is to play back their own tape about what PDP represents and why they left.

“I still hold the view that you can’t vomit in the morning and convert it to lunch in the afternoon if you have honour. And that position still remains the same. Number two is that yes, I have made this point clear that we can distinguish the mercenaries from those who genuinely have complaints.

“Our business as party leaders is to try and manage, listen and find solutions to those who have verifiable complaintss. But those who are permanent mercenaries and are in this business for personal reasons, there is not much we can do about that and we are not going to change the core values of the party in order to retain them.

“So, let me reinstate, we remain committed and I have said so from the word go in my acceptance speech when I was elected that we acknowledge the fact that there are people with genuine complains. For such people, we are ready to listen.

We are ready to act on the basis of justice, fairness, no arrogance and inclusion. I remain committed to those.

“However, on principle, I do not deal with political mercenaries, that remains my position. I will not miss my sleep because a lot of these guys cannot on a good day deliver their unit. And we have the records that tell us who won elections and where.

And I am a tested fighter, I fought them in Edo from zero – zero and I overcame their most powerful godfathers. So, I know what I am talking about, I speak from experience and I will talk, negotiate and persuade but there are core principles that are not negotiable.”

Osho baba retired thief anene,
You can see that thief anene is no more existing politically

Big mouth , i don't blame you rather i blame Jonathan for given you opportunity.

Hmm.... this man wants to bit more than he can chew. He is trying to undermine the efforts of persons like Amaechi, el Rufia, & co. that brought this government into power. Someone should please remind him that he cannot do it all alone. That was the same statement the PDP made when the nPDP(now the R-APC) was pulling out from the PDP.

So, ur Osho baba is now a saint, right?

2019 is ur grand exam...action speaks louder Dan voice

Same Oshiomole that desperately went to woo Buba Galadima @ midnight
"Pride goeth before destruction and a haughty spirit before a fall".

The aggressive styles of this self acclaimed pompous man will finally lead to end of APC incompetence.

But its the Fact

Well, who wants to fight such an ugly man? He has nothing to lose.

hammer6F:
AS A PARTY CHAIRMAN, OSHIOMOLE CANNOT ACHIEVE ANYTHING.

AS EDO GOVERNOR, HE COULD NOT EVEN DELIVER HIS STATE TO BUHARI.

HE JUST WANT TO MAKE NOISE AND PROMOTE HIMSELF, AS HE DID DURING HIS UNION DAYS.

OSHIOMOLE IS A SELF CENTERED GLORY SEEKER.

If you know how impossible it was to market buhari in the south during the 2015 election and compare what he gave buhari (208,000 to pdp's 286,000) to what buhari got in all of the SS/SE states you will know that the man really tried.

Exactly!

If he's sneaking out in the middle of the night to go beg R-APC members not to quit the party, then it stands to reason that he's losing sleep over the matter! Or am i missing something!?

LUGBE:
Big mouth , i don't blame you rather i blame Jonathan for given you opportunity.

just imagine the shame that happened in ekiti. Did it remotely happen during GEJ? Election for just one state and they the ruling government fumbled like hell. Even US election observer group said it was total sham.

i love oshimole. Let the ugly monkey continue rambling and continue quaerelling with everybody within and without, and see how quickly PDP will grab the power back.

This man have finally come to bury APC

Oshiomole already altering the permutation of many. He caused the sudden autolysis of PDP in Edo State and as a consequence permanently retired Anenih, Ogbemudia, Bob Izua, Igbinedion family and their numerous footsoldiers.
He has his target which is the PDP and its puppet chairman Secondunce but there are squabbles within to be addressed first.

Oshiomhole wear ur gear.. This fight will send you to the minority in 2019
