The Progressives Governors’ Forum, on Friday, accused a former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomhole, of usurping the campaign of the party’s candidate in the September 19 Edo State governorship election, Osagie Ize-Iyamu.

The umbrella body of all APC governors, in a statement titled ‘Progressive Politics – Which Way, APC?’ by its Director General, Dr Salihu Lukeman, raised the alarm over what it described as the diminishing electoral value of the All Progressives Congress.

Lukeman expressed sadness that the dissolution of the Adams Oshimohole-led National Working Committee of the APC had not solved the party’s diminishing electoral viability.

On the forthcoming elections in Edo and Ondo states, the PGF DG said efforts being made by Governor Rotimi Akerodolu to reconcile with aggrieved party members and leaders in Ondo were commendable.

He, however, added that the reverse seemed to be the case in Edo State, saying, rather than reconciliation, “loud drums of war” had taken over the airwaves in the state.

Lukeman stated, “Comrade Oshiomhole has relocated to Edo State and taken over the APC campaign and the campaign is proceeding in a manner that suggests the Edo State governorship election is an extension of the personal battle between the governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki, and Oshiomhole.

“The APC campaign is personalised around Comrade Oshiomhole and the candidate of the party, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, is an onlooker. The soundbite from the Edo APC campaign is so offensive to the point where Comrade Oshiomhole appears to be disowning almost every APC (member) in Edo State between 2016 and now.

“To that extent, it simply means Comrade Oshiomhole is disowning himself, which may be why he went on his knees begging the Edo people for forgiveness.”

According to him, APC leaders need to be reminded that the last leadership crisis was triggered by the deep concerns around the diminishing electoral viability of the party.

What is it that needs to be done to address the problem of diminishing electoral viability of the APC? Do our leaders even agree that the APC is faced with the problem of diminishing electoral viability?

“This may be the problem, partly because, if our leaders are unable to recognise that the APC is faced with the problem of diminishing electoral viability, then there is a big problem,” he said.

In a lot of ways the dude is right. This has turned into an oshiomole vs obaseki royal rumble

I am already losing interest in the election

Before nko ?
Anyone who is following happenings in Edo state knows the election is between Oshiomole and Obaseki. POI is just Oshiomole's stooge.

President Buhari need to call Oshiomole to order before he sets the state on fire.

Thats quite understandable. The quest to unseat that ingrate is very important and personal to Oshobaba. But nno ado usok usok!

Ipob thugs have also hijacked Obaseki campaign but fortunately they can not support any candidate and win.

In politics you distract your opponent, Oshiomhole is the biggest distraction for Obaseki's campaign.. while Obaseki fights Oshiomhole, fights Lawmakers , fights captain Hosa, fights council men .. Ize Iyamu's campaign keeps going according to plan


.

OBASEKI OUR CHOICE

This useless Salihu has come again.

ok

A win for the acid guy is a win for oshomole no doubt

It's also a win for Fulani herdsmen

That's why you see Malami running helta skelta

Oshiomole has sincerely destroyed APC and I think he should be tamed now before it is too late.

He needs to market the guy very well cos no be small Damage he do on the guys personality the last time

Africans with their zero integrity crop of politicians. Nigeria is going down economically because of these thieves.

You have a very valid point

Oshiomole is on a personal vendetta against Obaseki. He has turned this election into a war of attrition

hardizzle:

Nope oshiomole lost the chairmanship because he was fighting a war of attrition. Like a father fighting the son to the death

This is a personal battle for Oshiomole because his political career is on the line.

Once Obaseki wins the election,Oshiomole's career is dead and nailed in a coffin.

Interesting......the thing about 'pull him down' syndrome is that you'll also not be able to make progress.

Oshiomole seems to be on that path, because he'll lose on both sides.
If Obaseki was hard to tame, the Ize Iyamu that has been a core politician will definitely be harder.

Only time will tell sha.......
