A former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole says the abstention of five governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) known as G5 is good for his party’s performance in the 2023 presidential election, IgbereTV reports
Oshiomhole, a former Edo State governor, made this known on Friday during a media chat after he met President Muhammadu Buhari at the State House in Abuja.
The ex-APC chairman took a swipe at PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar, saying leadership is about character and keeping agreements.
“Leaders must have character. If you are not yet president and you are not obeying agreement and Nigerians are talking of national unity, and you disobeyed the provisions of your party constitution which talks about rotation in order to service that unity,” he said.
According to him, the APC has 23 governors to work for the party’s presidential candidate, Bola Tinubu at next February’s poll while Atiku has just seven governors – with the exclusion of the G5
