The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has commenced the replacement process for the post of the Deputy National Secretary of the party declared vacant on Wednesday by the National Working Committee.

The office was occupied by the embattled self acclaimed acting national chairman of the party, Hon. Victor Giadom who resigned from the office in 2018 to contest the River State Deputy Governorship during the last general elections.

The National Vice Chairman, South South, Hon. Hillard Etagbo Eta disclosed this in a chat with newsmen in Abuja on Thursday.

Eta who has been standing in for Senator Ajimobi, the acting National Chairman said the NWC has directed the South South geo-political zone to commence the process of the filling of the vacant post of the Deputy National Secretary as declared by the NWC.

According to the APC boss, “in the wisdom of the NWC, they now asked us in the South-South to bring forth a name to fill that vacancy that had been created.

“As a member of the NWC and National Vice Chairman of the party and as one who coordinates the activities of the party in the South-South and who represents the National Chairman, I have now communicated the Rivers State chapter to who this particular position has been micro-zoned, to now meet as a party to bring out the name and forward that name to the South-South zone for ratification and onward transmission to the NWC, that is what we are in the process of doing”.

Sheeding light on how Giadom office became vacant, Eta said, “Chief Victor Giadom resigned to contest as Deputy Governorship candidate of the party, and it is on record, we transmitted his name to INEC, he printed posters and he could not have done so, we could not have transmitted his name, he could not have campagined has Deputy Governorship candidate of our party without first resigning his office.

“So, in the wisdom of the NWC, they now asked us in the South-south to bring forth a name to fill that vacancy that had been created. I think we should be very clear on this, I think whatever mistakes, whatever missteps have been done cannot viciate the grand law of the party, which is the Constitution of the party”.

But when told that Giadom claimed that the NWC granted him a wavier which enabled him to return back to office after the election, the National Vice Chairman maintained that Giadom has ceased to be a NWC member, arguing that the former deputy national Secretary was economical with the truth.

Hear Eta: “You see the Constitution of our party is not a voluminous book for you to find out whether anyone can be given a waiver from resignation, we don’t even have it in our constitution.

“If Chief Victor Giadom feels very bad or very strongly about what the resolution of the NWC, of course, like he is always doing, like his likes are always doing, he can proceed to court, but that is the resolution of the NWC,” Eta advised.

RuddyFusion:
Lol..he's the chairman now so he's previous office is officially vacant..

HIGHESTPOPORI:
What they mean is that he was not qualified to be chairman, that he resigned, but he is saying he was given a waiver.

ORIENTATION101:
Cc Fergie, seanfer , Dansuqi .

This is the perfect time to nip in the bud. Now that Rivers state now have a new party leader they should the forward the name of their nominee for ratification so that Giadom can rest.

Jorussia:
the purported waiver he said he was granted by nwc to return as deputy national organising is a nullity as the APC Constitution doesn't recognize such practice.The nwc requested the South South zone of the APC to renominate him,but the South South APC refused to do so.His purported extension of court order is granted him as chairman is a waste of time and resources.Amaechi is going to be the major casualty of the needless APC crisis.

Jorussia:
Oshiomhole has been blocking this move since then because he preferred reconciliation as against waging war against Amaechi.Amaechi no longer has the political clout he used to have in the South South with the emergence of Oshiomhole as APC national chairman.
