The Chief of Staff to Governor Adams
Oshiomhole of Edo State, Patrick Obahiagbon,
has revisited the feud between the Head Coach
of the Super Eagles, Stephen Keshi, and a
member of the national team based in England,
Osaze Odemwingie.
In a message posted on Twitter on Tuesday,
Obahiagbon, who describes himself as a verbal
‘contortionist’, called for a truce between the
coach and the player, saying, “Keshi and Osaze
need to bury the hatchet …”
Although the post could pass for a random and
casual tweet, it did not go unnoticed by his
numerous followers on Twitter.
One Abidemi responded to the post in a tweet,
accusing Obahiagbon of being sentimental. He
wrote, “I think you are in support of Osaze
because he is from your state. Osaze’s time in
the Super Eagles is gone, he barely starts in
Cardiff.”
But Abidemi’s post didn’t go down well with
some other followers of the former lawmaker
who immediately hit back. One of them, known
as Andrew, said, “Haba. Bidemi what has
football got to do with location or tribe?”
Within a short time, what was meant to be just
‘another’ tweet opened up a debate on whether
or not Osaze is still needed in the national
team.
Adetunji argued against inviting the striker to
the Super Eagles. He wrote, “Osaze has no
business being in the Super Eagles. My
grandma knows that it is IK Uche any day, any
time.”
Subsequent tweets by Adetunji read, “If we have
to bring Osaze into the team, then we should
bring in the likes of Obafemi Martins, Seyi
Olofinjana, Pius Ikedia, etc. Osaze’s time is
gone.”
Surprisingly, as the debate raged, Obahiagbon,
who appears to be an avid supporter of the
Super Eagles, moved on to other subjects
without further comments.
Over the weekend, he had managed to
bamboozle his followers in his typical manner,
while commenting on the controversial
governorship election in Anambra State. He
actually succeeded in leaving a follower named
Gular confused after tweeting a message, which
read, “I don’t know about you, but I find
conventionality all too stifling…”
The fan simply asked, “Meaning what, sir?”
Obahiagbon keeps wowing his audience with
tweets on the ASUU strike. The most notable is
his take on Prof. Festus Iyayi’s death.
He had tweeted, “It is a lancinating loss of
another stentorian voice…”
As expected, the message had ignited frenzied
comments on Twitter. In response, one Ostatics
remarked, “This grammar is enough to make
ASUU call of the strike.”
Although respected in some quarters for his
unusual command of high-sounding words,
Obahiagbon was once severely criticised by his
followers for making a minor grammatical error
in a tweet posted in January.
However, he has kept on doing what he knows
how to do best on Twitter — mesmerising his
fans with jaw-breaking statements.
When he was recently attacked by a fan, who
described his statement as ‘unnecessary
English’, Obahiagbon subtly ridiculed his young
follower saying, “Exactly when you have easier
words like tbh, smh and lol.”
But one Oluwatosin challenged him, tweeting,
“Sir, please speak what we will understand.
Speaking and communicating are two different
things.”
Obahiagbon enjoys a large following of
undergraduates who delight in reading his
tweets. In what could perfectly pass for the
‘marketing strategy of the year,’ hip hop artiste,
Ice Prince has contracted the ‘crowd puller’ to
be the host of his album concert, which takes
place in Lagos this weekend.
