Obaseki: ‘Oshiomhole Has Reduced APC To Party Of Illegality And Travesty Of Justice’

Published

Governor Godwin Obaseki has reacted to his disqualification from participating in the forthcoming governorship primary election of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo State.

Obaseki, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Communication Strategy, Mr. Crusoe Osagie, said that it is unfortunate that Oshiomhole had reduced APC, “a party supposedly reputed for change, equity and social justice” to party of “illegality and travesty of justice”.

The governor who described the action leading to his disqualification as a mockery of the democratic process, said that he was not going to seek appeal, adding that doing so, would amount to an exercise in futility.

The statement said that the Governor had initially reiterated “that going by the open display and enthronement of illegality by one man in the party that comprises several organs and eminent personalities, there is no way that he would get a fair assessment in the run-up to the nomination of candidates to fly the flag of the party in the forthcoming Edo gubernatorial election.

“It is unfortunate that this open show of shame, illegality and travesty of justice is the brand of democracy which Comrade Oshiomhole has reduced the APC into. The situation is quite saddening because this is a party supposedly reputed for change, equity and social justice.

“We have therefore decided that it would be an effort in futility to appeal whatever the unjust outcome of the evaluation and screening process of the APC will be, especially when Comrade Oshiomhole has declared that he is the Supreme Court and ultimate determiner of the fate and future of our great party.

“We wish Oshiomhole well in his maladministration of the party and trust that the Almighty will help our country to find the path to true liberty, freedom, and justice,” Obaseki stated.
