‘You Can’t Fault My Sincerity’, Says Oshiomhole As He Resumes Office

 

National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomhole, on Tueday said though his style of leadership might not go down well with some people but what they can’t fault is his sincerity of purpose.

Speaking when he chaired the National Working Committee on Tuesday, in a fit of reconciliation, charged his colleagues  to put the interests of Nigerians first.

He also suggested that the first post-crisis NWC should be devoted to “having a conversation around the coronavirus”, adding that recent challenges the party had to deal with were inevitable in a democratic milieu.

Oshiomhole, holding his ‘rival’  Victor Giadom, said, “If it is one hour that we spend here, let us have a conversation around this issue.

According to him, it should be an issue of concern that other countries were closing their international borders to contain the spread of the virus but Nigeria has yet to follow suit.

Oshiomhole said, “Party Politics is about contestations. I am not the best chairman in the world and I don’t claim to be so, you can fault my style but you cannot fault my sincerity.

“The NWC is not divided. None of us seated here wants to destroy our party. My style is my style but I’ve learnt to reconcile my style with the style of others.”

The meeting, which is underway had most members of the 21 member NWC irrespective of which side they took during the crisis in attendance.
