Prophets of doom put to shame – Oyegun reacts to tenure extension

John Oyegun, national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has reacted to his 12-month tenure extension.

The party announced the extension of the tenure of the national working committee led by Oyegun at the end of its national executive council (NEC) meeting on Tuesday.

Oyegun speaking after the party’s national caucus said prophets of doom who predicted his removal from office had been put to shame.

He said this when he briefed state house correspondents after the APC national caucus meeting which was presided over by President Muhammadu Buhari at the presidential villa, Abuja, on Monday night.

Oyegun also dismissed the assertion that the caucus discussed his exit date as party chairman, describing it as mere media speculation.

“The outcome of the meeting was beautiful and pleasant

“In fact, I want to ask the media where did they dig them out (of) because we just had a pleasant meeting and all what I have been reading in the media none of it (happened), all the prophecies of doom none of it even came near for mention.

“It is the media we should ask where do they get those stories from, where do you get them? Nothing like that ever happened; nothing like that was ever discussed; nothing like that came up – beautiful, pleasant, intellectual, deep reasoning today about issues”, he said.
