John Odigie-Oyegun, national
chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has described as “absolutely
childish” the endorsement of Adams
Oshiomhole, former Edo governor, by south-south stakeholders of the party.
He made this known to journalists
at the party’s national secretariat in Abuja on Tuesday.
“It was childish, absolutely
childish. Voting is done at convention and not in state houses or in government
houses,” he said.
Odigie-Oyegun, who did not
confirm if he would seek re-election as APC national chairman or not, said he
had concluded consultations and would make his decision public in a few days.
“The consultation, I think is
concluded; I’m going to make it known when the convention committee announces
their programmes,” he said.
“Then when I am going to buy a
form, if I will re-contest I will let you know.”
Oyegun said he was not bothered
by the endorsement of Oshiomhole.
“I will grant a comprehensive interview
to you when the time comes,” he said.
“One of those who wants my job is
from Edo and he was the immediate past governor and he was very instrumental in
installing the present governor.
“So, I think it is a case of rub
my back, I rub your back’ that is playing out.”
