Breaking: Giadom, Acting APC Chairman Cancels Edo Governorship Primary Screening
...Declares Himself Acting Chairman
The Acting National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Victor Giadom has cancelled the screening for the Edo State governorship primaries.
He said he had taken over the helms of affairs of the party, based on a court injunction empowering him to do so.
He said, “Yesterday (Tuesday) the Court of Appeal sitting in Abuja, in a unanimous judgment, affirmed the suspension of Comrade Adams Oshiomhole as National Chairman of All Progressives Congress.
“Consequently, I bring to your notice that on the 16th of March 2020, Hon Justice S.U Bature in suit no FCT/HC/M/6447/2020 had ordered that, with the earlier suspension of Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, I, Chief Hon. Victor Giadom should act as the National Chairman of our great party.
“That Order could not be immediately effected at the time because of the temporary reprieve Adams Oshiomhole got from the court of Appeal on the same date.”
According to Giadom, he has the support of the members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) on the decision to cancel the screening.
