allisonluvsu: this is the video of the apology
Source: http:www.loadedvilla.com

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jxNTHrMRdKg

i have watched the video & the woman insisted she's not a roadside trader or a hawker. she was waiting for a bus when oshiomole appeared behind her.

oshiomole said his daughters have been harassing him on behalf of the woman but he still did well employing the woman & vowing to train her son if he gains admission into a university.


babseg:
dont quote me wrong. i never said i wanted him to be cricified.

I only said he did it because of political selfishness. lol if there is something like that

if nobody saw him he will never apologize and wont seat down with her drinking whatever was in the cup.

let pastor oyedepo apologise to the witch too for spiritual selfishness.....at least he was seen dishing the slap & he didn't seem it fit to apologise to the witch.

oshiomole na bad guy o - he gave the woman N2m cash in an envelope just like that. benin boys should not kidnap this woman or her kids o.

Two things are very sure:
1. The woman will soon have many toasters.
2. Her inlaws that abandoned her will start courting her attention and favours.

ilugunboy:

Tell me you've never used wrong words in your life in moment of anger.....it's very convenient to give advice from your position.

I vehemently condemned his choice of words on the woman when the news broke....but now he has done what a real man do: sincere apology...

I don't think the issue can affect him now negatively ...but positively.

PDP failed in the attempt to latch onto it.....

God bless you for this corrective statement.

I make mistakes almost everyday but i don't hold any political office. Political office holders are saddled with the responsibility of being civil with their countenance and choice of words. The onyl reason you're having a soft spot for Osho is because of his party affiliation. Had it been Jonathan that told someone to go and die, we won't hear the last of it. Let's learn to speak the truth irrespective of what political divide we align with.
Afam! Afam!! How many times did i call you? Since you make mistakes almost everyday, why do you expect less from fellow mortal? That they hold public office make them perfect, right? Or you just wish to play politics with all body?

Has any PDP politician ever apologized for any wrongdoing before?

Or is it that they're all angels?

To err is human, to apologize is angelic, and to forgive is devine.

Psychedelia: What is this? Some poor attempt at countering the uppercuts from his political enemies?

So, because PDP don give money to the same widow he'd publicly told off in such a barbaric way, na dis PR stitch job im wan do?

From the words of my grandfather, "The best gift offered with the wrong intention, always proves the most dangerous".

I guess this money is meant to cover for her funeral, after she has "gone and died".
What sense does it make to fix a date to give somebody a gift/donation?why not just give them when you made the statement?the PDP is just a party filled with scallywags and their attemt to politicize the error of oshiomole just blew-up in their face.

I condemned the governor's choice of words,however it should be noted that it takes courage to apologise in the face of such backlash and then follow with decisive action.many might see it as just been a publicity stunt but the fact that the governor took the step should be commended.

Kogi governor's convoy killed festus Iyayi and he hasn't even issued a public statement talkless of apologising.oshiomole made a mistake and the greatest mark of a great man is one who realises his error and makes moves to address them.there's no second term at stake for oshiomole so no matter how we see it,he has nothing to lose even if he doesn't apologise but the fact that he chose to apologise shows not just remorse,but an understanding of the fact that ultimate power resides with the people and while their will should be respected,their voices should also be heard and their anger acknowledged

oshiomole warned her not to share the money - he even assigned policemen to escort her to the bank & deposit the money immediately. toasters & in-laws wouldn't even dare.

Unfortunately, your analogy has nothing to do forgiveness, human redemption and compassion.

It's to do with the point being made which you fail to get - the governor has no right to use tax payers' money to settle his whimsical bad behaviours. My post was not about forgiveness and human redemption. My view on that from the start was that he needed to apologise personally to the woman. Now he has done that, very good. Giving her a job was also good if there was a real vacancy and she was qualified for the post. But giving her money was not good, unless it came from his own pocket.

he didn't use taxpayer's money - he used his own personal funds in combo with his daughters. he said so during the interview. watch it before you judge him.

Thank you. No, I didn't bother with the latest video and you will notice that my comment conditional - "unless" - meaning I did not judge him. Now, giving her his own money is good. While private charity of this nature does not bring about the kind of change Oshiomhole was elected to bring about, it is commendable, all the same.

This is your own internet assumptions and not credible facts because he did not use state funds, not at least till you present credible facts to hang your assumptions on.

hey coogar here we go again comparing the opposite.

from the two videos yon can see that oshiomole's widow was apologetic and respectful while Oyedepos's witch was arrongant

what if oshiomole's widow was like Im a widow and I can stand here or sell where ever I want.

Do you think she will get an apology talk-less of getting 2M naira
Re: Oshiomhole Donates N2m To 'Go And Die' Widow by OmoTier1(m): 7:36pm On Dec 02, 2013
I hope those that have been shouting compensation can now let the matter rest! I hope those that called Oshiomhole names can also go and tender their apology!

So glad to see that emphasis is continued to be placed on the LAWS of the land not being violated regardless of who is involved/

All the PDP demons that came in one way are scattered by the wisdom God has given Oshiomhole!

That woman MUST give 10% of her Tithe to thank her God because if not for the conscience of Oshiomhole who choose to look at the human face of the law, in other climes, this woman will get apology and also face a fine at the same time!

This is a lesson learnt for everyone - DO NOT BREAK THE LAW, WHETHER IT IS THE NATURAL LAW OR LAWS OF GOVERNANCE!

cool
Can biafraqueen now tender unreserved apology to the Governor Oshiomhole for her campaign of calumny?

i'm not sure what you think it means when people are drinking tea in your front and you are staring at the tea with a hungry look on your face.

perhaps you dont really understand pictures which dont have breast and butt in them?

should onila or mamagee open a thread to explain this better and source for opinions?


I'm just not spiritually gifted like you with your profound ability to discern and interpret people's intentions, state of mind and desires just by looking at some internet picture.

He was just sorry to save his face and administration from ridicule and different outburst everywhere.
Whether you guys like it or not,[b]that is the "TRUE PICTURE OF WHO HE IS IN REAL LIFE".In that video [/b]he was referring to a man as stxpxd man.
Leaders are expected to guard their utterances everywhere.I have been a victim of such bad temper before.My MD (an Insurance coy) asked me who my father was?who brought you here?what is your qualification?where were you when we were running around to get things done?i will sack you etc all because i was doing my job (compliance and monitoring responsibilities).
Our Leaders see themselves as demi god which is very bad.

Thank you for this. Very level headed post. Leave these people to be blinded by the manipulations of a Machiavellian man.

she doesn't even look like someone that could express herself in english & she might not have meant what she said to bishop oyedepo.

If he actually apologised to her personally then thats commendable but Oshiomhole must stop justifying his action by claiming the widow indulged in street trading, She didnt. It doesnt matter if she's been made to admit doing some kind of wrong to trigger the Governors wrath but its evident She wasnt trading but only waiting for a bus to pick her wares and her supposed crime was keeping her goods at the side of the road which clearly isnt street trading.
Genuine repentance can only come when we admit our mistakes wholeheartedly and seek forgiveness. Someone please tell that to Osho, the woman may be happy and better off today but we still know there's an arrogant and unrepentant tyrant in Edo state govt house.

No, they shouldn't. They have no guilt in the matter. The guilty party is trying to assuage his guilt by the large sum. The other contributors did what was appropriate.
