These are not the best of times for Adams Oshiomhole, National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

The Forum of APC Non-National Working Committee (NWC) and National Executive Committee (NEC) members has accused the NWC of usurping the powers of NEC and failure to constitute Board of Trustees (BoT)/National Elders Council and to fill vacant positions existing in the party, warning that it will soon result in major crack in the already crisis-ridden ruling party.

The Forum Chairman, Nelson Alapa in a communiqué said;

“We use this time to call on all the key stakeholders to ensure that BoT/NEC, as the case maybe, is constituted within a reasonable time frame majorly to enhance our party Status and operation.”

This trailed the earlier personal letters to Oshiomhole by both APC Deputy National Chairman, Senator Lawal Shuaibu and the Director-General, Progressive Governors Forum (PGF), Salihu Lukman, levelling all manners of allegations against the chairman, including insensitivity and ineptitude and calling for his immediate resignation.

Besides, the chapter chairmen of the 36 states and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT) had equally issued ultimatum to the national party leadership and the Presidency over what they described as poor reward system.

Also, the secretariat staff have been angry with the chairman for relocating most activities of the party to his personal office at Asokoro, grumbling that it has made the headquarters of the party a ghost town devoid of serious activity.
