APC has uprooted ex-Senate president and his cronies in Kwara - Oshiomhole
The national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole, has said that former Senate president Bukola Saraki, and his cronies, have been uprooted politically in Kwara state by the party under his leadership. News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Oshiomhole spoke after meeting President Muhammadu Buhari at the presidential villa in Abuja on Monday, July 29.
Oshiomhole while speaking, said: “Remember I was saying that Saraki must be removed, people would say how would I do it? I said okay if he resists removal then we would uproot. We went to Kwara, we did Otoge, we uprooted Saraki and you cannot commend me for this? You know who Saraki is? If you are talking of the most smartest political player, seasoned smart guy, he is. The APC national chairman said even though Saraki was smart, he had a superior smartness, which was able to help the APC uproot the former Senate president in Kwara state. Oshiomhole added: “But for every smartness he has, I have a superior smartness. At the end of the day who won? As a Senate president, we uprooted him as senator, we uprooted his nominee for governor and senators, we put our own. “Today, he doesn’t have one senator in Kwara, he doesn’t have one House of Representatives in Kwara. Everything in Kwara is APC and you can’t commend me for that? “If you don’t, then I will be like lizard, I will praise myself.
