The Director General of Senator Abdullahi Adamu Campaign Organisation, SAACO, Hon. Lawrence Onuchukwu has declared that the leading aspirant for National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC), Senator Abdullahi Adamu is a loyal party man to the core and could never be a double agent in the party.
Reacting in a statement to those insinuating that Adamu’s loyalty is more to the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) than to the ruling APC, Onuchukwu said Senator Adamu’s activities and contributions to the progress of APC since he joined the party in 2013 has been excellent and fruitful ones geared towards moving the party to greater level.
He stated that Sen Adamu as a responsible and decent politician could not descend so low to be a PDP mole in APC, describing those peddling the rumour as enemies of progress, who wished the party to be handed over to those who had nothing to offer to deliver the party in future elections.
While faulting those who said Adamu that crossed from PDP to the party should not be trusted with the party national Chairmanship, because he wasn’t a foundation member, the Director General, explained that nothing wrong for Adamu who came from PDP to the party to become the national Chairman of the party as it has happened in the PDP before when it was a ruling party.
He said Chief Vincent Ogbulafor, one of the former PDP National Chairman, was never a foundation member of the party, he was a founding member of ANPP, that he even contested governorship position in Abia state in 1999 on the platform of ANPP, but later defected to PDP and he eventually became its national Chairman.
Onuchukwu however, expressed confidence that Adamu would be a successful National Chairman who would turn around the electoral fortune of the party to greater heights.
He said he would use his vast knowledge in party politics that he has garnered since the second republic to build a robust reconciliation mechanism, where all those aggrieved in the party would have settled minds and roles to work for the party.
