Oshiohmole stated this when he
addressed State House correspondents at the end of a meeting between APC
Senators and President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on
Wednesday night.
He warned that APC and the Buhari
administration would not be intimidated or distracted from delivering on its
mandates to the Nigerians.
“The Senators have come in huge
numbers as the Senate leader had earlier said, namely that APC remains the
party with the highest number of senators in the senate and in the House of
Representatives. So, that fact has been reaffirmed.
“Number two, we still have what
it takes to continue to provide good governance for Nigerians.
“Number three, those people who
had left, many of them were victims of disinformation.
“I think there was a clear
attempt by a few who have the agenda to try and play up fears and then seek to
profit from those fears by spreading disinformation in the manner that they
did.
“But like everything that is not
based on truth, overtime truth emerges and people who were victims of
disinformation retrieve their steps which is why a senator from Ogun has
already returned to the fold.
“I’m sure more and more who left
out of confusion and who were misled, I believe they will come back.
“But much more importantly is
that we have agreed that going forward, this party cannot be intimidated, the
government will not be intimidated, it cannot be distracted, we remain focused,
we remain committed to addressing those critical challenges that confront our
country – security, economy and fighting corruption.”
The former Edo Governor commended
the APC Senators who had come to reassure the president of their full backing
in pursuance of these three core commitments “which we made to the Nigerian
people and for me as chairman I’m very excited”.
