APC National Chairman, John Odegie-Oyegun and Timi Frank
The embattled deputy national publicity secretary of the All
Progressives congress (APC), Comrade Timi Frank has told the party
leadership that if they dare suspend him, the party will break apart.
He was reacting to claims by the National Working Committee (NWC)
on Wednesday that the suspended Deputy National Publicity Secretary of
the party technically expelled himself by taking the party to court.
However, Frank identified the person behind his ordeal as the
National Chairman of APC, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun and dared him to
expel him.
In a statement he issued in Abuja on Wednesday, Frank said: “I dare the National Chairman to convene NEC meeting and see who will be removed between two of us”, said he.
He added: “the claim by one of the Oyegun’s foot soldiers, Oji
Ngofa, that NWC had taken decision to hold on with the report of a
kangaroo zonal committee that recommended my suspension was a blatant
lie.
“This desperation by the National Chairman to expel me from APC
will backfire. He has now proven to the world that he had no respect
for the law. This matter is in court and the court has asked all the
parties to maintain status quo pending its determination but Chief
Oyegun’s desperation to send me out of this party can’t wait. Well,
this is how he disobey even the APC constitution at will.
“I am surprised that Oyegun is deploying his strength against
me instead of joining hands with President Muhammad Buhari to find
solutions to problems confronting the nation at this time. It is high
time Oyegun stop distracting Mr. President and boring Nigerians with my
issue with APC.
“It is expected of a National Chairman of a ruling party to
rally all supports for the President and not causing disunity under
himself”.
