Former Special Adviser for Drainage & Water Resources to Governor Babajide Sanwo- Olu, Engr. Joe Igbokwe, said National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Abdullahi Adamu, has outstayed his welcome as the ruling party’s chair.
Igbokwe made this remark against the backdrop of the seeming crisis in APC arising from the choices of Senate President, Godswill Akpabio and Speaker of the House of Representatives, Tajudeen Abbas as principal officers of the Red and Green Chambers respectively.
Adamu had openly raised eyebrows, saying the choices were made unilaterally devoid of the party’s National Working Committee’s input.
The sequel to the former governor’s outburst, is his visit to President Bola Tinubu alongside the party secretary, Dr Iyiola Omisore, ostensibly on the issue.
Igbokwe weighed in with an attack on Adamu in an interview with Daily Trust where he said the ex-governor is unfit to lead the party allegedly as he was averse to Tinubu’s emergence.
“He was supposed to have been removed that time when he supported Ahmed Lawan but APC managed the matter. We can’t trust him.”
“In all honesty, we can’t trust him again. He was managed for us to come out of the election. Now is the time to ease him out but I know Asiwaju knows what to do,” the Lagos APC chieftain told the publication.
