Former Governor and Senator representing Edo North Senatorial District, Adams Oshiomhole, has said that the outgoing Governor Godwin Obaseki is politically dead.
Oshiomhole made this statement during an interview on
Channels TV’s programme, Politics Today, while commenting on the outcome of the
just concluded governorship election in the state.
Recall that the Independent National Electoral Commission,
INEC, on Sunday declared Monday Okpebholo of the APC as the winner of the
election.
However, during the interview, Oshiomole said the outcome of the election represented the will of Edo people.
Speaking on the comments trailing the declaration of the APC
candidate as the winner of the election, Oshiomhole said Edo people would not
sacrifice their blood for anybody.
“We subscribe to President Jonathan’s school which says the
election of even a president is not worth the blood of any Nigerian. And you
have the PDP national chairman who is acting with all the crises around the
status talking about bloodbath for election.
“You have Obaseki, I watched him on Channels insisting it
was do-or-die. And when you asked him, he said, if they did, then they would be
dead. Now the people have done it. I guess he is politically dead.
“The people have decided that Monday, who was elected last
year as a senator, has been elected; and now has been declared the
governor-elect,” he said.
