Details have emerged of how governors of the All Progressive Congress (APC) sabotaged their party in the Edo State governorship election which they lost to the opposition, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

PDP’s Godwin Obaseki won convincingly over APC’s Osagie Ize-Iyamu in the election which build-up was so tension-soaked that the Benin paramount monarch had to intervene and warn both parties not to endanger the peace of the state.

An aide to Kano State governor who was in Edo during the election revealed to Nigerian Sketch that almost all governors of the APC-led states deliberately refused to give financial assistance to the Edo electioneering process because they were unhappy with erstwhile national chairman of the party, Adams Oshiomhole who they alleged had been arrogantly difficult when they were trying to resolve the disagreement between him and Godwin Obaseki.

The governors were said to have concluded that Obaseki would not have left APC if not for Oshiomhole’s “irrational and arrogant stubbornness.”

“There was a time that the governors tried to reconcile Obaseki and Oshiomhole, and the former was asked to apologise to the later. As a governor and before other governors, Obaseki had to go down on his kneels to beg Oshiomole, and soon after the meeting, Oshiomhole went ahead scheming against the governor, thereby pushing him out of the party”, the chieftain said.

“So when it was time to contribute to the election process, no one responded positively. Almost all governors of APC states blocked Oshiomhole’s phone calls. Even candidate Ize-Iyamu who Oshiomhole anointed had a difficult time getting in touch with the governors.

“My governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje had no option because he was the chairman of the Edo governorship election campaign for the APC. So, he was on ground out of compulsion.

“Oshiomhole really overplayed his hands. He refused to listen to anyone, and was annoyingly unyielding. As I speak with you, there are records of

ok

the fly that refuse to hear word will follow the corps to the grave

How is Oshomole's action different from Buhari's? Arrogant stubborn goats is their name.

We know that before, because it would have been difficult for Obaseki to win without sabotage from within

if true, this is really strange... this is a lesson for we all, endeavor to forgive one another.. Obaseki even knelt down before oshiomhole... Oshiomhole have learnt his lessons now and if he rises tomorrow, I don't see him making the same mistake...

"they were unhappy with erstwhile national chairman of the party, Adams Oshiomhole who they alleged had been arrogantly difficult when they were trying to resolve the disagreement between him and Godwin Obaseki"

It was quiet obvious, Obaseki wouldn't have won if not the internal factors

ok well come back !

Yet Tinubu lies on national television that it was Obaseki who refused any attempt at reconciliation with Oshiomhole. How can someone with such stained brown teeth lie so shamelessly ? Does he want his teeth to become worse than they are ? Nonsense

So they knelt to beg him

But he ignored it

Then went round Edo kneeling TO chiefs.
