You lack moral ground to ask for my exit, Oshiomhole tells Saraki

The National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, has said the Senate President, Dr. Bukola Saraki, lacks moral ground to call for his resignation after alleged corrupt activities that trailed the party’s primaries.

Oshiomhole, who reacted in a statement signed by his Chief Press Secretary Simon Ebegbulem, on Thursday threatened to sue Saraki if he failed to provide evidence of inducement.

The statement described the attack on the character of the APC national chairman by Saraki as unwarranted, pathetic and irresponsible resort to petty politics.

He said Saraki who ‘is a usurper and pretender to the position of senate president’ had no moral ground to call for the resignation of the national chairman.

The statement read, “It is sad that Saraki, who just woke up from slumber occasioned by his crushing defeat at the Port Harcourt presidential primary election of his party, could degenerate to such a low level.

“It is equally sad, but not unexpected, that Saraki, who is politically drowning, would make such libelous comments against the national chairman of the APC. And I challenge Saraki to mention one name of an aspirant that gave money to the National Chairman or we file a legal action against him.

“We challenge him to mention one person who has claimed that he gave money to Oshiomhole to influence him and the decision of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC) in the just-concluded primary elections.

“We insist that Saraki with his kind of prebendal politics is nothing but a monumental disgrace to the nation’s democracy.”
