They know that the tiger do not offer his back for a ride without a price.<br \/>\nVery soon Oshiomhole and President Buhari would find themselves alone in the cursed \u2018Black Pearl\u2019 that the APC has irredeemably become.<br \/>\nWhile we understand Oshiomhole\u2019s frustration over his inability to stop the coalition, the fact remains that he and President Buhari are fighting a lost battle in trying to destroy it.<br \/>\nNigerians have already reached a consensus to coalesce and vote-out President Buhari come 2019 and replace him with a more competent, pan-Nigerian President. No amount of intimidation, threats, violence or even enticement of any kind can change this iron-cast resolve.<br \/>\nThe PDP therefore counsels Oshiomhole not to think that clinging to a sinking ship and its deserted captain can save him from prosecution from allegations of humongous corruption and siphoning of billions of naira while serving as Edo state governor, for which he will surely stand trial.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u2026APC In The Throes Of Death By Kola Ologbondiyan, National Publicity Secretary, PDP.
