Oshiomhole speaks on returning as APC chairman after meeting with Buhari

Oshiomhole insisted he would not “resit” a class he had passed and said only “an empty brain” would suggest that he is eyeing a comeback.

The former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, on Monday, August 17, has denied he is plotting to return to the position.

Oshiomhole stated this on Monday while addressing State House Correspondents after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Aso Rock Villa, Abuja.

He was reacting to recent remarks made by Director-General of the Progressives Congress Forum (PGF), Salihu Lukman, that he was scheming to return to helm of the ruling party.

Oshiomhole insisted he would not “resit” a class he had passed and said only “an empty brain” would suggest that he is eyeing a comeback.
