The Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, has disclosed why he
fell out with Adams Oshiomhole, former National Chairman of the All
Progressives Congress, APC.
Obaseki explained that Oshiomhole’s ulterior motive was
responsible for the IAS between them.
The governor disclosed this while recounting how he helped
Oshiomhole develop plans when he was governor of the State.
Oshiomhole, a former National President of Nigerian Labour Congress, APC, was governor of Edo State from 2008 to 2016.
Following the expiration of his second term, Obaseki
succeeded him.
But, their relationship soon turned sour and Obaseki had to
defect from APC to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, where he is running for a
second term.
However, Obaseki in a series of tweets wrote: “I supported
@A_Oshiomhole when he ran for office. I developed his plan as governor. When he
was done, he felt I can continue this plan.
“So, I ran for office; he had an ulterior motive and felt I
was going to be subservient. He didn’t know I was going to be this
independent-minded.
“The @OfficialPDPNig gave me umbrella when I weathered my
political storm and I am grateful to the leadership of the party for their
large heart.”
