He stated this on Monday during the party’s enlarged leaders’ meeting across Edo north senatorial district of the state, held at Auchi.
Oshiomhole had to step aside as national chairman of the party, following a law suit that affirmed his removal as a member of the party in his ward.
He however said that what matters is that he occupied the office of the national chairman of the party, for which he said he remains thankful to God for.
“I have every reason to be grateful to God for His grace upon me. It is on record that I did not only do eight years as governor, but the party also worked hard to have my successor elected on the platform. It does not matter what happened thereafter.
“I also was privileged to become the national chairman of our party and it does not matter even if I had spent just two days in that office. All that matters is that I occupied the office and it is a history that cannot be changed and for which I am grateful to God.
