SAN FRANCISCO, July 27, (THEWILL) – A former National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun says he is fully in support of all efforts to reconcile aggrieved members of the party and unify it as political parties prepare for the 2019 general elections.

Oyegun in a statement Friday by his Chief of Staff, Edwin Ikhinmwin, described as fake news a purported speech by him being circulated in the social media blaming his successor, Adams Oshiomhole for destroying the party.

“Chief John Odigie-Oyegun has not issued any press statement or spoken to the press on the concocted statement credited to him. We view this as part of the fake news being disseminated to magnify the ongoing challenges facing the Party and create new fissures between the former National Chairman and the incumbent, H.E. Comrade Adams Oshiomhole to frustrate ongoing reconciliation efforts within our Party. The former APC National Chairman fully supports all efforts to reconcile and unify the party.

“Chief John Odigie-Oyegun uses this opportunity to call on all Party leaders, members and supporters to embrace the ongoing peace talks led by President Muhammadu Buhari and the Party’s National Chairman to restore stability within the Party, so that we can position our Party as a unified and strong political fighting force going into the forthcoming General Elections in 2019,”the statement said.

The APC has been dealing with a serious internal crisis, which has seen it so far lose one state governor and some members of the National Assembly to mainly the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
