APC National Chairman, Oyegun Blasts Saraki’s Loyalists, Baraje

The chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), John Odigie-Oyegun has slammed Alhaji Kawu Baraje, a loyalists of Senate President Bukola Saraki for describing the party’s performance as unimpressive, since taking over the helm power in 2015.

He said Baraje who is also a chieftain of the APC, was quick to condemn, adding that he would have asked the party leadership about its plans to alleviate the sufferings of Nigerians instead of playing to the gallery.

Odigie-Oyegun said: “At the moment, we know these problems (power outages and fuel queues) are there because it is a case of corruption fighting back.

“We are not resting on our oars; we are working hard and very soon all these problems will be over. Nigerians will certainly win this battle.”

He further stated that, “We are working on a solution in the medium term; short term, yes we can make the fuel queues disappear but we don’t want the problem to re-occur and to do that, you have to work out a solution that will be long-lasting.

“If people want to play to the gallery they are at liberty to do so, they know why they are doing what they are doing.
