Protesters hit APC headquarters, call for Oshiomhole’s resignation

Some aggrieved youth from the federal capital territory (FCT ) are protesting at the national secretariat of All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja, calling for the sack of Adams Oshiomhole, national chairman of the party.

They chased away staff and security operatives.

The protesters accused Adams Oshiomhole, national chairman of the party, of imposing candidates on them and interfering with the primary elections.

Wielding placards with inscriptions such as: “Oshiomhole Steer Clear of FCT Primary”; “We Want Indirect Primary”; “Leadership is Not Activism, Oshiomhole”, among others, the protesters demanded the immediate resignation of the national chairman and reversal of his decision on direct primaries.

The protesters barricaded the Blantyre Street leading to the secretariat and took over the control of the gate after overwhelming security operatives manning the gate.

They also destroyed the billboard which has the photograph of Oshiomhole and President Muhammadu Buhari mounted in front of the building.
