It is rather heartbreaking that Edo state Governor Godwin Obaseki has ceased to recognize the fact that there is a pandemic Coronavirus disease which the world seriously is currently battling with.

It was discovered very sadly and regretfully that the Governor who is supposed to be monitoring closely that his aides do not go contrary to federal government laid down precautions to curtail the pandemic disease, he has even sent one of his lousy and noisily boisterous aids out to the United kingdom, a country that has become notoriously redolent with the corona virus, on a vicious propaganda campaign as if his second term ambition will be realized for him by nigerians in the diaspora.

And guess who OBASEKI has chosen to spirit out of Nigeria to United Kingdom just for propaganda at the expense of Edo states resources? He is the noisy and anti Benin ADAZE EMWANTA of course.

Adaze Emwanta, a Senior special assistant to the Governor who was used by Obaseki to speak ill of the National Chairman, Comr Adams Oshiomhole on National TV, seems to be getting his rewards for coming against the latter. Emwanta who is presently frolicking and cavorting in London having the best time of his life courtesy of Edo state governments resources and hard earned tax payers money, is seen posing on pictures on a tour to London and adding weight on the alters of our collective edo state finances.

Even as we understand that he is been financially rewarded for his constant porous and senseless rantings against the National Chairman, it still does not stop the need to show interest in this state sponsored trip of his out of the country as it concerns the finances of the people of Edo state.

It is a known fact that London fall under the places under travel ban by the federal government of Nigeria. How then will a reasonable person travel to such place to parade himself around when the people living there are self isolating themselves as a result of the COVID-19 disease?

Is this not rather a poor judgement on the part of OBASEKI and ADAZE EMWANTA?Are they not heartlessly exposing edo state citizens to the risk of the dreaded corona virus decease upon the return of ADAZE EMWANTA to Benin?

This is to humbly ask that Emwanta on his return to Nigeria anytime from now should be adequately quarantined by the federal government for rigorous investigations lest he unleashes the COVID-19 disease on our hapless edo state citizens. We fear because he has regularly posted in the social media pictures and videos of his London gallivanting spree.The good people of Edo state cannot risk suffering from this deadly virus because of the ill thought out decision on the part of OBASEKI to spirit out ADAZE EMWANTA to London at this ominous times.

God forbid we experience COVID-19 in Edo state but if it ever happens, now we know the history. OBASEKI and ADAZE EMWANTA are to be held responsible. God forbid.
