Immediate past governor of Edo
state and a former Chairman of Nigeria Labour Congress, NLC, Adams Oshiomhole,
was on Wednesday disgraced at the ongoing colloquium organised by the Nigeria
Labour Congress, NLC, at Sheraton Hotel and Towers, Abuja.
The former governor got more than
he bargained for when he claimed that those agitating for restructuring were
those who lost out in the 2015 election.
He had said, “The debates on
restructuring in Nigeria today, however, should bear in mind that all federal
systems are dynamic and evolving in response to changes in elite perception of
power and demand over available resources.
“The trend in most federal
systems is toward a stronger central government that guarantees minimum
standards for the constituent parts and capable of making interventions that
promote the welfare of citizens.
“That is the tradition of
organised labour. And, of course, if there are some people who have other
issues; …I just want to plead with you that what is at stake; is not me. What
is at stake is our country. And the country is yours. The country is mine. The
country is ours.
“I believe in the unity of
Nigeria. I have said, and I am not saying it for the first time, the unity of
Nigeria is not negotiable. Just like the unity of the NLC is not negotiable.
But, the governance of our country, the quality of leadership, we must continue
to review it and continue to engage it.”
Before the former labour leader
could finish his speech, the entire hall went noisy with many calling on him to
‘drop the microphone and get out.’
Also speaking at the event, the
lead speaker at the colloquium, Samuel Egwu, explained the that restructuring
agenda was not often clearly explained by leading voices.
He said the campaigners were
either genuinely confused or outrightly mischievous.

Oshiomhole deserved more than just booing; he deserved being stoned to death. In organised, civilized, big nations like the US, the center is being made weaker. His position shows he is alien to goings-on around the world. He's a bigot; he has an irredeemable knack for selective stupidity and foolishness.

ReplyDeleteOshiomole has long lost his integrity. He needed to be stoned. He still wallows in dark and still in his shallowed mind thinks he is a good leader who has done well or can do better than any other person. All his speech were tantamount to hokus pokus. He is a failed leader and a betrayer of the people.
