Reacting to the development, Oshiomhole, a former two-term governor of Edo State, south-south Nigeria and ex-chairman of the Nigerian Labour Congress (NLC), said President Buhari had two years ago invited him to come and reposition the APC and that “since the president has also agreed to the dissolution of the NWC, I am bound to obey him as the leader of the party.”
