Oshiomhole made this known as he rallied governors of the party in support of Ambode.
The moves came as Ambode, following his screening in Abuja met with President Muhammadu Buhari in a last minute move to rally the discontented party base in Lagos to his side.
Adams Oshiomhole, however pointed out that the Lagos State chapter of the party was in sound health, irrespective of the discontents against the governor.
Below is his words,
"Now, the attempt to say an embattled governor, there is no APC governor that is embattled and because we are democratic, the best way to measure democracy is the presence of more than one person showing interest in an office.
"That does not make any other person embattled. But, of course, the media can create this impression that there is an earthquake in Lagos; there is no earthquake.
"At every level, I have seen people claiming that in one or two offices there was no opposition.
"In every other office, we have more than one candidate expressing interest. Those people who are currently occupying those positions are not by reasons of those new expressions of interests embattled.
"Three, to say that you have never seen Lagos State governor in our meetings is to the extent that your lens is blurred. My records and minutes of our meetings will show the participation of Lagos State governor in all the meetings in which he has been invited.
I think our party in Lagos is at peace," he said.
