Meanwhile, a group, Abuja Governance Roundtable (AGR), has cautioned Oshiomhole and his supporters to stop disobeying President Buhari.
The group was reacting to reports that the sacked NWC of the APC headed by Oshiomhole was heading to court over the pronunciation of President Buhari, stressing that their actions are tantamount to treason.
“These individuals are said to be defiant against the presidential directive. It is the position of this group that the refusal of these individuals constitutes a direct confrontation with the president,” the AGR said in the statement.
