Giadom has resigned from NWC, lacks locus to call NEC – Nabena

The legal status of the anti-Oshiomole arrow head and the Deputy National Secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief Victor Giadom is been questioned.

The Deputy National Publicity Secretary of the party, Mr. Yekini Nabena said Giadom lacked the legal right to the position he currently occupies having resigned from the National Working Committee (NWC) to contest as the running mate to Tonye Cole, the party’s governorship candidate in Rivers State during the 2019 general elections.

APC’s deputy spokesman while chatting with newsmen in Abuja on Saturday questioned the legality of the Tuesday Emergency National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting convened by Giadom.

He explained that he (Gaidom) has resigned and ought not to occupy the office.

Also, he falls short of calling for Emergency NEC meeting.

Nabena described as “strange and an aberration that Giadom still attends meetings of the National Working Committee (NWC) and could call for a NEC meeting” when he has resigned from the Committee to contest in Rivers State.

He wanted party stakeholders not to lose sight of due process and the dictates of the party’s constitution.

“It should be known that Victor Giadom tendered his resignation letter to the National Working Committee (NWC) to contest the 2019 election as the Party’s Deputy Governorship candidate in Rivers State. It is strange and an aberration that he still attends meetings of the NWC, occupies the office of Deputy National Secretary and convenes a NEC meeting. In our politicking, we must not lose sight of due process and the dictates of the Party’s constitution.”

He also faulted the purported endorsement of Giadom as the replacement to Comrade Adams Oshiomhole as National Chairman.
