John Oyegun, former national chairman of the All Progressive Congress (APC) says Adams Oshiomhole, the incumbent chairman of the ruling party talks before thinking.
Mr Oyegun also threw his political weight behind the recent call for the resignation of the former Edo state governor.
The travails of Mr Oshiomhole began last year during the party’s primaries to pick its candidates for this year’s general election.
Some of the aggrieved aspirants who lost the tickets of the party accused the former governor of receiving kickbacks from the highest bidder for the tickets of the party. They also urged the top official to step aside.
Recently, the deputy national chairman of the APC, Lawan Shuaibu, called on Oshiomhole to resign, accusing him of incompetence.
Stakeholders of the ruling party in the South South region recently attributed the travails of the APC chairman to the legacy of his predecessor, Mr Oyegun.
But denying the allegation, the former party chairman backed the call for the resignation of the former governor saying the latter talks before thinking.
Oyegun said the continued stay in office of the embattled chairman is degrading and demarketing the party, rather than seek to bring more people on board.
