The knives are out and a fresh crisis is brewing in the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) after the party’s Deputy National Chairman, Senator Lawan Shuaibu, defied protocol and asked the National Chairman Comrade Adams Oshiomhole to resign.
Shuaibu, in a six-page letter addressed to Oshiomhole, said the APC chair has failed to add value to the party and lacks the requisite capacity to effectively run the affairs of a party.
“It is my honest opinion that your ability to ensure this party flourishes is deficient as you lack the necessary composure and you also don’t possess the capabilities and the requisite experience to run a political party,” the letter reads
Shuaibu’s letter titled “APC: It’s fortune and misfortune, time to act!” and made available to journalists Tuesday morning came after the APC lost of all Zamfara elected posts to the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP), in the just concluded general election.
The APC candidate, Mukhtar Shehu won in the election, but the Supreme Court sacked the candidate as the winner for not being nominated via a valid primary election.
The judge declared PDP Bello Matawalle as the governor-elect of Zamfara state and has been issued Certificate of Return.
