Crisis: Court returns Oshiomhole as APC chair, to preside over NWC meeting today

The national chairman of the All Progressives Congress will on Tuesday chair a meeting of the National Working Committee (NWC) of the party.

The meeting was called after Oshiomhole got a stay-of-execution order of the Court of Appeal, which restored the status-quo in the party.

The meeting scheduled for 12 noon will hold at the Party’s National Secretariat, a fitting replacement of the aborted NEC meeting called by the party’s deputy secretary, Victor Giadom, in league with rebels bent on removing Oshiomhole.

“All members of the NWC are expected to attend as important matters concerning the party will be considered and deliberated at the meeting”, said publicity secretary, Lanre Issa-Onilu.

“Recall that a Court of Appeal on Monday stayed the execution order of a High Court restraining the APC National Chairman, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole from further acting in that capacity”, Issa-Onilu said.
