Barely forty eight hours after former Vice Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Chief Francis Inegbeniki, tendered his letter of resignation from the party said ‘political tsunami’ will soon hit the Edo state APC on a scale never seen before just as he insisted that he has left the party for good.
Inegbeniki spoke while addressing members of the Nigeria Union of Journalists, (NUJ) in Benin after a viral post surfaced showing the All Progressives Congress, governorship candidate Senator Monday Okpebholo visit to Inegbeniki to prevail on him to rescind his earlier decision.
He said his decision to quit was in the best interest of the people of his senatorial district adding that it was a hard decision for him to take.
He said , “I was in my house consulting with all my friends and political associates and I can tell you that I have received calls from far and wide. The only person that has not called me is President Bola Tinubu.
“Okpebholo appeals that I should rescind my decision and as usual what is about to happen in APC will be a political tsunami, I’m only leading the way. I cannot rescind my decision because it is about the state. It is not about me but for the improvement of Edo State.
He used the opportunity to clear the air that his decision has nothing whatsoever to do with the recently constituted APC Edo campaign council where some party chieftains were said to have been dropped.
