The former Chairman, Board of Trustees of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Chief Tony Anenih has declared that he has forgiven his foremost political foe and Governor of Edo State, Adams Oshiomhole.

He made the declaration weekend, at the 10th Anniversary of St Anthony’s Catholic Church, Uromi, where the Governor was given an award for his services to the Church.
Anenih who referred to the Governor as his son, said a recent health challenges he suffered made him realise the need to rise above politics and embrace peace with all men.
“I was in St. Paul’s Church in Benin, and as my son, Comrade Adams said, we were all there appreciating the efforts of the Archbishop.

“I want to say this, it is not because Adams is here. Last night, I was telling my wife that I met Adams in the church, and with my immediate medical experience, I have decided to forgive all those who offended me. And I specifically mentioned Adams.

“Adams, without you saying it, I have forgiven you. As you said when you were in labour, as President, you were my son and you know it. You came into politics and you remain my son. So, the common cook that used to cook ogbono soup for us is still there,” he said. ‎

Earlier in his speech, Governor Oshiomhole who could be best described as Anenih’s worst political enemy who taunted him for several years, referred to him as “my daddy. “
He thanked the church for reuniting him with top members of the opposition party, just as he lauded their efforts in nation building.
“I believe that, the fact that Nigerians live in relative peace and harmony in spite of the failings and weaknesses of political leadership at all levels, is due to the power of your intercession, the power of your prayers.
“We cannot thank you enough for your prayers and your support in spite of our weaknesses,” he said.

The Governor praised the Catholic Church for bringing people of different political persuasions together under one roof for the Church programme.

“Yesterday, I found myself sitting in the front row, and then I realized that most of those drivers and shakers of politics and ‘politricking’ in Edo State, are all Catholics. That, for me, is revealing.

“For me, the church has caused all of us to reunite in the State. So, I reunite with my daddy Chief Tony Anenih and several other PDP leaders and APC leaders. And the Catholic Church brought together the national Chairman of APC sitting side-by-side with the national leader of PDP.

“May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ continue to moderate our actions and remind us of our oneness, of our commonality and of our shared commitment to work together to uplift our state and our great nation.”

Commenting on the award conferred on him, the Governor thanked the Church, saying “I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for the honour done to me by being invited to receive an award.”

The Church anniversary was attended by Mr Anselm Ojezua, APC Chairman, Edo State, Mr Dan Orbih, PDP Chairman, Edo State, former Governor of the State, Prof Oserheimen Osunbor as well as former Governor of Delta State, Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan, among others.

Abeg Bro add Imo State... Rochas has failed us

Abi make Oshiomole forgive Anenih for Anenih's sins against Edo people during PDP's locust years despite the most intimidating PDP credential possessed by the state then eg the wife of the President Obj ,Stella ; Minister for Works and Housing Tony Anenih , NNPC GMD Obaseki Gaius, INEC Guobadia, Igbins the governor's family etc were all from PDP but Edo was bled to comatose state before God sent Oshiomole to fix all the mess including Mr Fix it - an appellation for bad reputation. all the noise about PDP winning Edo gubers has no foundation but mere propaganda from yesterday thieves who saw Edo as something to be looted. we dey wait for una...

Shame on small people. These big guys always know how to sort out their differences to the nearest convenience while the small people die over them. i can see wailers vs zombies quarrel starting here. meanwhile these small people don't know any possible backdoor agreement between pmb (or p. o. box) & gej. while gej & pmb are not only alive but also feeding fat, it is a fact many wretched souls have died for them. & one day u'll just see gej & pmb grinning ear to ear, embracing each other & 'reconciling'! & Who knows: supporters of Anenih & Oshiomole may have killed each other somewhere. Now here they are. <sighs> Poverty stinks.

Leav dis gu jorh

Don't fight yourselves over politicians, they always have a meeting point.
