Attempts By Rivers State Govt To Malign My Name Is Sacrilegious - Oshiomhole by torgod: 2:18pm On Feb 21, 2020
The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, has read with utter disgust a statement by the Rivers State government that he and Minister of State for Petroleum, Chief Timipre Sylva, “sponsored thugs” to attack the residence of former Rivers State governor, Dr. Peter Odili.

According to the malicious statement signed by the Rivers state Commissioner for Commissioner for Information and Communication, Mr. Paulinus Nsirim, the “attacks” were made because Justice Mary Odili was a member of the Supreme Court panel that gave a unanimous verdict against the APC-governor-elect in Bayelsa State, David Lyon.

This reckless defamation of the character of Oshiomhole is unbecoming of a state government that is supposed to operate under the rule of law including fairness and justice to all.

The statement is an egregious assault on the reputation that has taken Oshiomhole a life-time to build.

For clarity, Oshiomhole was not in any way involved in the action that took place at the residence of Dr. Odili, a gentleman for whom Oshiomhole has tremendous respect as a friend of many years despite political differences.

As a matter of principle, Oshiomhole condemns any harassment Hon. Justice Mary Odili had suffered for a judgment she gave within her powers aa a judicial officer. Oshiomhole as a one-time beneficiary of judicial redress of injustice always holds the judiciary in the highest esteem and the obedience of court orders.

Dissatisfied as a party, the APC under Oshiomhole’s leadership has returned to the Supreme Court seeking the review of the judgment . That is the democratic culture to which Oshiomhole subscribes.

It would be expected that it is the police that should give account of what happened at the residence of Dr. Odili based on investigation and not the Rivers State government in Port Harcourt.

The unsubstantiated allegation by the Rivers State government is , therefore, an insult on the APC National Chairman. It is an indecent thing for a state government to do in the circumstance.

We hereby call on the Rivers State Government to toe the path of decency and withdraw the defamatory statement with due apologies.

Signed:

Simon Ebegbulen

Chief Press Secretary to the APC National Chairman

This Oshomole of a man is always Looking for Sympathy where there's none. His hypocrite is always written all over him like a Billboard.

Those who knows Governor Wike knows he doesn't look for trouble where there is none.

But Bite him, you will receive the Biggest sleepless night of your Life.

We know who is who in this country

It is well. Wike is a trained lawyer. But he talks recklessly. Whether it is Ameachi stealing or Rivers owning the recovered loot at Osborne estate or assassination attempt on him by soldiers the list just goes unending.
I do not know if he is now the personal Lawyers to the Odilis now.

The million dollar question ...

How can Oshiomhole compare himself to me. I’m well-read, a lawyer, life bencher. I have a first degree in Political Science, my second, Law and I went to the Nigerian Law School and I passed very well. Let Oshiomhole tell me which University he attended
.

Wike is a fool. Always making wild allegations that can not be substantiated. That reminds me of his many allegations against Amaechi and the Osborne tower money. Agbero governor!
