Obaseki Makes U-Turn, Gives Kudos To Oshiomhole For Making Him Governor

BENIN – It was a sight to behold at the ongoing 2023 Alaghoda­ro Investment Summit in Benin City as Edo State governor, Godwin Obaseki gave kudos to his predecessor, Senator Adams Oshiomhole, for his contributions to the de­velopment of the state and for making him his successor.

Governor Obaseki had be­fore now, been antagonistic to his predecessor, now Senator, representing Edo North in the National Assembly, following a face-off with him ahead of the 2020 Edo gubernatorial elec­tion, where Obaseki emerged victorious for a second term as governor against Oshiom­hole-backed Osagie Ize-Iyamu.

While it was clear that Os­hiomhole was instrumental to his emergence in his first term as governor in 2016 under the All Progressive Congress (APC), Obaseki in November 2019 told a gathering of APC members in the state capital that the former labour leader did not contribute to making him governor.

According to Obaseki, “No­body, but God made me gover­nor of Edo State.

“I am not an ungrateful person. No one made me gov­ernor. I became governor by God’s grace, with the support of many other people.

“If God had said I would not be governor, no way would I have been a governor. It is wrong for someone to say he made me governor,” he told the gathering then.

However, four years after, at the ongoing economic summit, Obaseki made a u-turn, prais­ing Oshiomhole for making it ‘possible’ for him to emerge governor, to the surprise of many.

Oshiomhole, who was pres­ent at the summit alongside former Governors John Odi­gie-Oyegun and Chief Lucky Igbinedion, was presented with an award by the governor.

“As governor of Edo state, you made it possible for me to become the governor of Edo state.

“If you did not, I will not be here tonight… I will forever be grateful to you,” Obaseki told Oshiomhole while presenting him with the award.

Nigerians Living In Niger Republic Cry Out — We Are In Support Of The Nation; We Don't Want Any Attack On Niger Republic

"PETE: First of all, Yul is 41 and I really don’t interfere in his affairs, no. Suddenly we heard he’s picked up a second wife.

CHUDE: You didn’t know before he picked the wife up?

PETE: There is one thing you must know about me. I don’t lie, it’s not necessary. God created me so well, If I tell you this thing is black, it is black. You know, it’s like when he want everything to run for governor or something. When I saw his photograph, I thought it was introduction they were doing. There was someone who called me and said do you know something? Yul is running for governor and I said he must be crazy, how? I never heard it. I have 5 sons, I don’t interfere with their lives you know. If they say daddy, so and so thing is happening, good, if they don’t tell me, I don’t bother. If they tell me, beautiful. We just heard it and that’s it.

CHUDE: So you suddenly heard that he had taken a wife?

PETE: Yeah, we did, we did. There is something we always say in igbo: ‘if you go and pick up ant infested gays, it’s a direct invitation to the lizards, come to roast, right?’ So, here I am and that’s all."

During an interview with media personality, Chude Jideonwo, veteran Nollywood actor, Pete Edochie said the way Peter Obi handled Tinubu, Soludo's insults shows he is an intelligent man.

The protest in Niger Republic against Tinubu who is chairman of regional bloc, the Economic Community of West Africa (ECOWAS) is coming after a coup in the country which removed the democratically elected President, Mohamed Bazoum.

It is also coming after BBC reported that Nigeria cut off power supply to Niger Republic in line with an order from the Nigerian presidency.

ECOWAS has already said that military response will be the last option it will seek to restore the democratically elected government removed by the military junta.
