The National Auditor of the All Progressives
Congress (APC), Mr. Isa Madu Chul, has disassociated himself from the purported
call for the resignation of the National Chairman of the party, Adams Oshiomhole.
In a statement issued on Tuesday, Chul said he was
part of the National Executive Council (NEC) meeting where a vote of confidence
was passed on Oshiomhole, expressing shock over the publication where his name
was mentioned as part of the signatories calling for the removal of the chairman.
He explained that he attended a meeting called by
one Nasiru Dano, an ex-official member of the NEC, but in that meeting the
issue of asking Oshiomhole to resign never came up.
Chul insisted that the publication was full of
mischief and a ploy to destroy his reputation before the public, adding that he
is loyal to the party and the leadership and would never be involved in any
mischief.
He said: "Nothing of such was discussed
because I cannot even be in such a meeting when I know that our national
chairman has been leading the party to victory in our recent elections. Apart
from that, he has brought discipline and party supremacy into the affairs of
the party; repositioning the party and making it a winning machine, which is
commendable.
"So I was surprised to see my name as one of
those who signed for the resignation of Oshiomhole. I want to state
categorically that I am not part of that evil plot, and I am calling on Nasiru
Dano to retract that publication or I will take legal action against him."
