After weeks of tough battle for the leadership mantle of the All Progressive Congress (APC), the coast is now clear for victor Giamdom as he has now been granted an order to convene the party's national executive council meeting.
Legit.ng recalls that Giadom, a factional chairman of the ruling party, has been embroiled in a ripple of controversy after he was pitched against some members of the APC NWC over leadership of the party following the suspension of Adams Oshiomhole.
NWC had initially settled for an "unavoidably absent" Senator Abiola Ajimobi, but the decision was kicked against by Giadom and his loyalists.
