National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) has issued a note of warning to the governor of Bauchi state Bala Muhammed over his refusal to inaugurate members-elect of his party, saying such act could invite trouble into the state.
Oshiomhole said if the ruling APC did not use state institutions like police, against the inauguration of Senator Bala Mohammed to be governor, “it is a shame to use federal institutions against the inauguration of state Assembly” in Bauchi by the governor.
Speaking Friday at the national secretariat when he received the state House of Assembly members-elects who had come to formally inform the party national leadership on the development in Bauchi, Oshiomhole said “if the governor insists then he is inviting trouble.
“If we have not misuse federal might and institutions from preventing Bala Mohammed from being inaugurated, it is a shame to use federal institutions against the inauguration of state Assembly,” APC national chairman stated.
While assuring the members-elect that the party will follow the rule of law to get justice, Oshiomhole revealed that his leadership will write a letter to the Inspector General of Police over the matter.
He, however, described the scenario as “the worst form of robbery,” adding that he was ashame to discourse the same scenario which happened in his home state of Edo state.
