No clash between Obaseki and deputy, Shaibu – Gov’s spokesman

The Special Adviser to the Edo State Governor on Media and Communication Strategy, Mr. Crusoe Osagie has flayed rumours that there was a clash between Governor Godwin Obaseki and his deputy, Rt. Hon. Comrade Philip Shaibu.

In a statement, Osagie said the falsehood could only have emanated from the All Progressives Congress (APC), who have no substance in their campaign and are only adept at spinning the rumour mill and concocting alternative facts to massage the egos of their paymasters who cannot run an issue-based campaign but rely primarily on tale-telling and propaganda.

According to him, “The lie that there was a clash between the governor and his deputy should be dismissed in its entirety. Whatever incident they allude to only exists in the imagination of the purveyors.

“There was indeed a meeting with key stakeholders of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which ended with everyone in high spirit. There was a spirit of cordiality and everyone shared their ideas and inputs on how to deliver the party in the September 19 governorship election.”

Osagie advised the general public to disregard the falsehood and any other such tales the band of dishonest people would spin in the days ahead as the election draws near.

He urged Edo people to ensure they are kept away from government by voting en-masse for Governor Obaseki and his Deputy, Rt. Hon. Comrade Philip Shaibu, in the September 19 governorship election.

Governor Godwin Obaseki and his deputy Philip Shaibu they are best of friends to deliver Edo people from the hands of political godfathers, and there is nobody that can separate them and by the special grace of God. Edo people are solidly behind governor Godwin obaseki and Phillip Shaibu re-election bid. 4+4 is Non-negotiable. PDP own the land, since the former national chairman of APC now Sack Chairman of apc, he has be using money to buy some SSA and board chairman just because he knows it well that Edo people have rejected him and decided to vote for governor Godwin and Philip for second term re-election bid in office. Edo State is now PDP.
