Former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole has been bursted by Edo State Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu.
Shaibu who happened to be Oshiomhole’s loyalist before now, has burst his bubbles.
He said; “Oshiomhole wanted to use me to impeach the Governor knowing that I was closer to the members-elect as of that time and members of the State Assembly because I spent 8 years in the House of Assembly here and 18 months in the House of Reps and I have goodwill among the legislators because of my own style.”
“And he wanted me to use the same member when they’re elected to remove the Governor and for me to be the Governor and I said no.”
“And I said, If I didn’t betray Oshiomhole when I was given money and a plot of land in Maitama to sign his impeachment as at then, I will not betray my own Governor. I don’t have the tendencies.”
“I knelt down to beg Oshiomhole for forgive, no matter what Obaseki would have done, which all the questions I asked him, he had no tangible reasons for wanting to remove Obaseki.”
“I knelt down and I begged him. I said ‘I’m your son. Why not because of me and forgive.”
“When I realized that Oshiomhole has declared war against Governor Obaseki, I told him that I will stand with Obaseki come what may.”
“I will fight to the very last to ensure that Governor Obaseki is defended, the same way I fought for Oshiomhole when there were plots against him in Edo State.”
“It is time for Oshiomhole to come and test his popularity when the votes are to be cast. Oshiomhole has lost his integrity and is no more the man of the people.”
