OBASEKI REVEALS WHY OSHIOMHOLE IS ANGRY WITH HIM

Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, has explained why he and the former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomhole, fell apart.
Obaseki, in a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Communication Strategy, Mr Crusoe Osagie, said Oshiomhole was disappointed because he refused to be used in the former APC chairman’s quest to become a godfather in the state.
The statement added that Oshiomhole’s outburst was just an expression of his frustration over his failure to achieve his goal to govern Edo State for a third term using Obaseki as a proxy.
It stated, “In 2016 when Oshiomhole nominated and supported Obaseki, his hidden motive was to use Governor Obaseki. who he thought would be a pawn in his game to defraud Edo people and enthrone himself as the ultimate godfather of Edo politics at the expense of the will and wishes of Edo people.
“However, Obaseki’s refusal to mortgage the interest of the majority of Edo people for the satisfaction of Oshiomhole and his handful of greedy followers is the cause of Oshiomhole’s bitterness which has led him to bury himself in pursuit of an innocent governor who is trying to do the right thing for his people.”
