He alleged that national chairman of the party, Chief John Odigie-Oyegun received N10m to accept Bolaji Abdullahi from Kwara State as the party’s new spokesman.
He has therefore called on President Muhammadu Buhari to probe the act.
Frank, who has been suspended by the party, alleged that Oyegun was bribed by Senate President Bukola Saraki to allow Abdullahi, an ally of Saraki become the substantive spokesman of APC.
The APC Deputy National Publicity Secretary has also threatened that he was going to sue Abdullahi for contempt of court if he dares assume his new office and begins to speak for the party.
Abdullahi, a former Minister of Sports, was confirmed the new spokesman of the ruling party on Thursday at the North Central Zonal Congress of the party which held in Abuja.
But Frank, reacting on the development in his Maitama home in Abuja on Friday, labelled the zonal congress as a meeting of North Central supporters of APC, arguing that none of the resolutions taken there would stand legal scrutiny when juxtaposed with the party’s constitutional provisions.
He said, “Another act of impunity has been executed once more by my party and the National Chairman. Those people behind what took place yesterday (Thursday) know the truth; they know what they did yesterday will not stand the test of time.
“I can assure you, Oyegun cannot retire me from politics. He’s my father, he’ll go before me. No meeting was held by any caucus of the party. I read online that my chairman compromised his conscience.
“We have to investigate the allegation that Oyegun collected N10million and a jeep to conduct the zonal convention held yesterday. The President must direct security agencies to investigate this allegation against the National Chairman.”
