Adams Oshiomhole Is Not Under House Arrest – John Mayaki

Oshiomole naijavibe.netEx Executive Director on Media and Publicity to the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Prince John Mayaki has said Comrade Adams Oshiomhole is not under any house arrest.

Reports have said he is under house arrest amid the present crisis surrounding the rally organized to celebrate the return of Pastor Osagie Ize Iyamu to the APC from the PDP.

However, according to John, it is not true and Oshiomhole is a man that can never be denied his freedom.

He added that Nigerians should ignore the false reports.

His words, “Reeling from the public humiliation suffered over the clear abuse of power and instigation of violence in the state today, the Edo State government is trying to save face by spreading the false and fictitious reports that the National Chairman of the APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, is under house arrest,”

“Nothing could be further from the truth. The National Chairman has committed no crime or wrongdoing and thus cannot be denied his freedom.”

“Members of the public are urged to disregard this false report concocted by the government after it was unsuccessful in its attempt to block the peaceful rally held to herald the homecoming of Pastor Osagie Ize Iyamu to the APC.”
