BREAKING: POLICE SEAL APC NATIONAL SECRETARIAT
Operatives of the Nigeria Police have sealed the National Secretariat of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja, following the order of the Inspector-General of Police, Mohammed Adamu, on Tuesday.
It was reported that the IGP had scheduled a meeting with the two camps of the party National Working Committee (NWC) at the force headquarters by 1pm.
The Appellate Court sitting in Abuja last week upheld the suspension of the APC National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole.
Members of the NWC who showed up at the party secretariat were not allowed to gain access into the party house, while members of staff and journalists were allowed to walk in without their cars.
This development comes as the party’s leadership remains divided over who takes over as the Acting National Chairman, following the suspension of the National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole.
Following the decision, the party’s National Working Committee affirmed former Oyo State Governor Abiola Ajimobi, as the Acting National Chairman.
But due to Mr Ajimobi’s unavoidable absence, the NWC appointed the National Vice Chairman, South-South, Hilliard Etta to act on his behalf.
Meanwhile, the APC Deputy National Secretary, Mr Victor Giadom also declared himself as the acting National Chairman, on the strength of a Federal Capital Territory High Court order obtained on March 16.
