Oshiomhole Fights Back, To Return To Nigeria To Face Accusers

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, is on his way back to Nigeria from the UK.
He had travelled out of the country after he was quizzed by operatives of the Department of State Services (DSS) over allegations of collecting bribe during his party’s primary elections.
His wife, Iara, is said to be indisposed and receiving treatment in the US hence the trip.
Oshiomhole, however, diverted to London from the US on Thursday where he met with Bola Tinubu, chieftain of the APC but departed London for Lagos by British Airways on Friday morning.
The former Edo state Governor is at loggerheads with some APC governors over the manner in which the party’s primaries played out.
The aggrieved governors, including Rochas Okorocha of Imo and Ibikunle Amosun of Ogun, failed to get the gubernatorial tickets of the APC for their preferred candidates and have publicly slammed Oshiomhole.
