Tracereporters –EDO Solidarity Forum (ESF), a group of concerned professionals from the state has called for peace and all forms of hostilities at the Edo State House of Assembly aimed at derailing peace and development in the state.

ESF said in a Press Statement signed by its President, Prince Ameer Idris that the coalition of Governor Godwin Obaseki and former national chairman of APC, Chief John Odigie Oyegun against the chairman of the APC, Comrade Adams Aliyu Oshiomhole was unacceptable.

The Statesman said that the sacrifice of Oshiomohle in supporting Governor Obaseki ahead of his Deputy on his road to the Edo State Government House deserve respect and appreciation.

It further said that the role the Governor played in the defeat of President Muhammadu Buhari in the state in the last presidential election has its negative effect on the State therefore the Governor should not behave a drowning man looking for who to go down with.

It added that people will stand against any ploy by the governor to cover his failure.

ESF also said that much as it’s not exonerating the APC national chairman on the crisis and allegations, it believe that the APC National Chairman does frequent the State to enable him plan any upheaval to derail development in the state.

It explains that if the chairman was interested in distracting the Governor, he wouldn’t have supported him ahead of his deputy which everybody thought would have succeeded him.

ESF expressed disappointment that the former National Chairman of APC, Chief John Oyegun could term with the governor in fighting Oshiomhole on false allegation.

It advises the former Edo governor to play fatherly role to both Governor Obaseki and Oshiomohle instead of taking side.

The Statement added that Oyegun should remain a statesman rather than involving himself in any rancour in the state.

Osho baba behaving like a Good father.
