The national deputy secretary of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Victor Giadom has secured a court order which backed his resumption as the Acting Chairman of the party.
Giadom on Friday, June 19, 2020 wrote the Independent National Electoral Commission, INEC, introducing himself as the ruling party’s acting chairman.
Though another high court in Rivers state has restrained Giadom from parading himself as chairman of the APC, he told INEC in a letter dated June 18 to serve all processes and documents concerning APC elections as well as other correspondences to him.
His letter read:
“I want to respectfully through this medium bring it to your attention that I have been appointed as the acting National Chairman of the APC. A copy of the order of the FCT High Court, Abuja affirming my authority as the acting national chairman of the APC is herewith attached.
“Please note that the earlier of the FCT High Court suspending Comrade Adams Oshiomhole from office on March 4, 2020 as affirmed by the Court of Appeal, Abuja on June 16, 2020.
