Adams Oshiomhole, national chairmanship aspirant of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) on Monday said during his eight years as
governor of Edo State, he did not oppress anyone.
The former governor stated this on Tuesday when he met with Senate
President Bukola Saraki and senators elected on the platform of the APC
at the senate.
“I am here to state my intention to run for the position of chairman
of our party the APC and solicit your support for my candidature.
“Part of the challenge is that various organs of the party have not
functioned. As a governor I have not oppressed anyone, power can be
tempting.
“In the forthcoming convention every senator is a delegate in his [or
her] right. I confess that while I was in NLC i fought with some
governors – not against them. They understand that is nothing personal
but for good,” Oshiomhole said.
On his part, Saraki said he believes in Oshiomhole effecting changes in the party.
“I believe in your capacity to do the things you said you will do,” the senate president said.
