South-South Politicians Drum Up Support For Oyegun

Perturbed by the gamut of accusations heaped on Chief John Oyegun, politicians and political office holders in the South-South zone, Monday, praised the national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), describing him as a man of conviction, who cannot be bought, no matter the price.
The call for Oyegun’s resignation drew fire from the leaders, describing it as ridiculous and unfortunate.

“All kinds of invectives have been hurled in the direction of the national chairman. Politicians behind this wicked agenda want to remain relevant in the political terrain” they said.

In a press statement issued in Port-Harcourt and signed by the national chairman of Politicians and Political Office Holders in the South-South (PPOHSS), Chief Julius Ikuru, the leaders said Oyegun had served the party well and needed to be commended by all well-meaning people in the country.

Praising Oyegun for playing politics with integrity and honour, the leaders said there was no basis asking him to resign.

“Oyegun is an administrator of high repute, brilliant and excellence. He has dignity and integrity and he has humility.”
