Some comments above are so funny, how can you suspend a national chairman from just one state?
Someone should please enlighten the house



Kindly study the APC Constitution, article 21 particularly; section B iv-vii.

Then you would see why Oshiomhole should be worried.

Let me tell you, the strength of any national officer of his party is at the Ward level.....

And the State and LGA ratifies.

They are the ones who present you for election at the National level.
So, in party politics...the most potent avenue is at Ward level.

There are so many cases to cite from.

Obaseki is the most distracted governor in Nigeria currently. He does not need these distractions.

Oshiomhole should behave like the elder politician that he is. Sadly, he appears to be like the typical Nigerian politicians whose political ego means much more to him than the progress of his constituency.

He should stop listening to the acolytes and praise singers, and shealth his sword.

I think the Edo people should march out and demand that Oshiomhole stop distracting governance in the state. Otherwise, the electorate will end up being at the losing end.

I told someone here that Oshiomole can't do shiiit.

Dem think say na joke.

Kwanza:
The Executive Council of the Edo State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has ratified the suspension of the National Chairman of the party, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, from the party in the state.

The decision was reached at an enlarged meeting of the council and other party chieftains with the state governor, Godwin Obaseki, in Benin City, on Wednesday.

At the meeting, the leaders said the suspension of Comrade Oshiomhole became necessary because the national chairman has been deploying divisive tactics to cause disharmony in the party in collaboration with the proscribed group, Edo Peoples Movement (EPM).

While addressing APC leaders from the 18 Local Government Areas of the state, the State Chairman of the APC, Anslem Ojezua Esq., traced the genesis of the crisis to the primary elections in 2018.

He noted: “All these started since the party primaries in 2018 when we conducted the primaries to nominate candidates for the general elections held in 2019. It appeared that after that elections, Edo APC didn’t know peace again.

“The issues were later aggravated in April and May 2019 which culminated in the formation of the Edo Peoples Movement (EPM), an infamous group we proscribed in our last meeting.”

Ojezua said the news of his removal was shocking as the state working committee which purportedly removed him didn’t have powers to do so.

The chieftain added: “Our constitution has a provision to remove officers at the state level. It is only the State Executive Committee that has the power to remove any officer.”

“Yesterday, 15 chairmen of the APC chapters in the local councils and 23 out of the 35 members of the State Executive Committee passed a vote of no confidence on the National Chairman, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, while a vote of confidence was passed on my person.

“The APC Local council chairmen have found out that Adams Oshiomhole is the one behind the crisis in Edo APC and following the findings, lost confidence in the leadership of the national chairman by passing a vote of no confidence on him.

“Considering the stand of these chairmen and also based on the report from organs of the party, we affirmed the suspension of Comrade Adams Oshiomhole from APC in Edo State.

“Three local government chairmen of the APC were not in attendance at the meeting held on Tuesday. They are the chairmen of the party in Owan West, Etsako West and Etsako Central LGAs. I have letters informing me of their suspension and in that regard the Vice Chairmen are to act until those positions are filled.”

In his remarks, Obaseki explained that he is not happy with the recent political developments in the state, especially the disruptions from a once-trusted leader who has thrown caution to the wind to cause disaffection among APC members in the state.

The governor said when he first met Oshiomhole 12 years ago, they shared a common interest in salvaging Edo State but all that has changed in recent times.

“I am not an ungrateful person. No one made me governor. I became governor by God’s grace, with the support of many other people. If God had said I would not be governor, no way would I have been a governor. It is wrong for someone to say he made me governor.

“No one gave me money. The funds Oshiomhole initially raised for his governorship ambition was raised by me in Lagos. If I can raise money for him for his election, why would I not be able to raise money for my own election.”

The governor said the national chairman was not truthful about comments on his administration.

“If you came into power on some basic principles, do not expect to change those principles because you have certain ambition. If you came to power believing no man is God, then the day you start to play God, you will get the consequences.”

A leader of the APC in Ovia South-West LGA, Hon. Samuel Ekeneza, who moved the motion for the ratification of the suspension of Comrade Oshiomhole, said that the party remains supreme as no individual is bigger than the political party.

The motion for the ratification was supported by a leader of the APC in Esan Central LGA, Mr Osediamen Oriaifoh.

Why is Oshiomole conniving with the likes of Tinubu and Buhari to cause confusion in Edo state?

Oshiomole is supposed to direct federal government attention to Edo state by way of foreign investment and human capital development and not to cause trouble and all kinds of political crisis that is depreciating the already economic gains of the state.

But why is that Comrade Adams Oshiomole is not seizing fire and letting peace reign?

Educational deficiency is one of the greatest set back of Comrade Adams Oshiomole.

The sound education that he lacks is making Oshiomole continue in his motor park tout boy way of leading the Apc political party. Unfortunately for Oshiomole he had created many enemies for himself.

You don't seem to get it....once your ward says this man is suspended....all they do is forward the suspension letter to the NWC...who will call an emergency NEC and remove the Chairman.

The NWC is the administrative "oga" but the Ward is the most potent.

Why do you think the PGF called for Oshiomhole to call for NEC? They are all in it together. They are tacitly behind Obaseki.

As a party member, you register at Ward level not at NWC.

All I think Obaseki is pushing is that Oshiomhole shouldn't conduct the primaries for Edo guber.

How can a state arm of the party suspend the national chairman? It is like the home state house of assembly impeaching the President. Or don't they work with a constitution again?
Well, this is Nigeria where anything goes

Party politics is bottom-up approach.

You register at Ward level.
For adams to be chairman today, his ward pushed him to LGA...and then his state gov nominated him.

What it means is that the ward level is powerful and can also retrieve what they freely gave.

Once your state is not in support, it is very difficult as in the case of Okwesilieze Nwodo, PDP and Sullivan Chime.
or in the case of
Oyegun APC Obaseki.
