Amosun blasts Oshiomole, says he’s APC’s biggest and most destructive threat

He said that the party lost the Taraba State governorship election even though it invested N800 million into the election in 2019.

But debunking Oshiomhole’s claims on Wednesday, Amosun emphasised that the former APC Chairman has an “antecedent and penchant for careless and most times, baseless and unverified public statements”.

He said, “It is not in doubt that I have participated fully in the formation and sustenance of our party, the APC, and I can boldly say that the party under Adams Oshiomhole conducted one of the worst primaries in the history of Nigeria’s contemporary politics and ended up shopping for his own enemies, leading to his eventual removal as chairman of our party.

“Nigerians should not be in a hurry to forget the allegations that preceded the conduct of those primaries and his eventual invitation by the Department of State Service to clarify certain grave allegations.

“If he wanted to insult our leader, President Muhammadu Buhari, he could have come out boldly to do so. But his subtle attempt to pass snide remarks at him failed the simple test of loyalty because the former President also moved from his own party to merge with other like-minds to form the APC.
