Prof Sagay Bombs Oyegun: ‘You Are Come And Chop Politician’

There seems to be no end to the war between the All Progressives Congress (APC), and the Presidential Adviser on Anti-Corruption, Prof. Itse Sagay.

In response to the APC branding him a “a rogue elephant,” Sagay has taken a fiery shot at the National Chairman of the Party, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, describing him as a “come and chop politician.”

He alleged that the APC has failed under Oyegun’s leadership, while accusing Senate President Bukola Saraki of working to destroy the party.

“I am an accomplished man long before any appointment. I am not a ‘‘come and chop’’ politician like you lot.

“My loyalty is to the President and not to the party which has continued to fail under the leadership of Chief John Odigie-Oyegun.

“To start with, I am not a ‘come and chop’ person as you are. I did not come to ‘chop’; so the party is not doing me a favour. You are the ones that have come to ‘chop’.

“Secondly, my criticism of APC is not against President Buhari who I think is a man of great honour, integrity and whom I admire and who inspires me.

“I took this job because of Buhari and Osinbajo, who I admire greatly. The people I am referring to in my criticism are John Odigie-Oyegun and one Bolaji Abdullahi, who is (Senate President Bukola) Saraki’s Man Friday. They are dining with the devil who wants to destroy the party.

“They are appeasers, who are acting the way (former) British Prime Minister, Neville Chamberlain, appeased Adolf Hitler and in the process, they will destroy the party because they are weak and unable to confront evil and they will end up helping that Hitler to destroy the party.

“What is APC without Buhari, Osinbajo and Tinubu? The Oyegun-led executive, which is doing a policy of appeasement, will destroy the party.”
