The current crisis rocking the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC has reached a new height as the party vice-chairman(North-East), Mustapha Salihu has disowned a court order declaring that he takes over as the new National Secretary of the party.
The order, issued by a federal high court in Abuja also instructed that the party should recognize Victor Giadom as its acting national chairman following the suspension of Oshiomole.
Speaking on the development, Salihu said;
“My zone, the North East has already nominated Architect Waziri Bulama as the acting national secretary in the presence of the Senate president, APC governors from the zone and other party stakeholders.”
“I was at the meeting where this decision was reached. So why now would I go back following a court order to act as national secretary?”
“I was not part of such shenanigan. It is not in my character to play such dirty politics and I condemn in strong terms those behind the act.”
This development has caused a rift in Giadom’s faction of the party.
