Suspended National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole says he has formally accepted the dissolution of the party’s National Working Committee under his leadership.

The ex-chairman stated this in his reaction to the dissolution while briefing journalists on Saturday in Abuja, the ex-chairman.

Oshiomhole, however, pledged his loyalty to the ruling party, adding that his loyalty to President Muhammadu Buhari remains solid.

“Of course, we have now been dissolved and I have accepted that dissolution in good fate. I have always assured the President of my loyalty.

“I know it is easy for people to speak of loyalty when the going is good but loyalty is brought to the test when the going gets really tough,” he said.

Oshiomhole further expressed his joy that the APC under his leadership was able to work hard to ensure that unity returned to the Ninth Assembly.

He added that the emergence of Senate President, Ahmad Lawan and the Speaker of the Federal House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila has helped the executive arm of government to succeed.

His remarks followed the dissolution by the APC National Executive Committee (NEC).

The party’s council took the decision at a virtual emergency meeting, based on the recommendations of President Buhari.

Meanwhile, Yobe State Governor, Mai Mala Buni, has been appointed as the chairman of the Caretaker Committee of the All Progressives Congress (APC).

Governor Buni was sworn in by the Minister of Justice and Attorney-General of the Federation (AGF) Abubakar Malami.

Similarly, Senator John Akpan Udo-Edehe was appointed as the secretary of the caretaker committee.
