Wike: Why I Did Not See Obaseki When I Visited Edo by Maxymilliano(op): 1:39pm On Apr 22, 2022

Rivers Governor, Nyesom Wike has revealed why he did not meet Edo Governor Godwin Obaseki when he visited the State last week.

Wike, who was in the Edo State capital as part of consultation for his presidential aspiration, neither met with Obaseki nor his deputy, Philip Shaibu.

He also avoided the Edo Secretariat of the party in Benin because the Edo PDP Chairman Dr. Tony Aziegbemi believed to be an Obaseki loyalist.

Wike stated his reasons in an interview with BBC News Pidgin.

He said: “I did not visit Governor Godwin Obaseki because that was not where the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) sent me.

“They sent me to meet the delegates (not the Governor) concerning how our party will win the 2023 presidential election.

“It is not written anywhere that I must go through the Governor before seeing the party delegates.

“Governor Godwin Obaseki is not in a relationship with me, he is not my girlfriend, so why should I be quarrelling him?”

Orbih was joined by teeming supporters to receive Wike, who held talks with Edo PDP delegates at the residence of a former Chairman of the Board of Trustees (BoT) of PDP, the late Chief Tony Anenih.

Wike and Obaseki have been engaged in a public spat with the Rivers GoVernor describing his Edo counterpart as a serial betrayer and an ungrateful person.

He tendered an unreserved apology to Obaseki’s former godfather and predecessor Comrade Adams Oshiomole for ignoring his warnings on the Edo Governor.

Problem started when Obaseki attacked Wike stating the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is not the personal property of the Rivers Governor.

The Edo Governor said he will not accept political bullies and overlords, reminding Wike how he had dethroned bullies and high handed leaders.

Obaseki emphasised that Edo cannot be bought.

Wike, in return, described obaseki as a serial betrayer and an ungrateful person.

He said: “If you ask anybody or check the DNA of Godwin Obaseki, what you will see in that DNA is serial betrayer and ungratefulness.

“Let me stand today to apologise to Adams Oshiomole, who had been vindicated by telling us that we would see the true colour, the insincerity and the ungratefulness of governor Obaseki.”

Obaseki doesn’t have to be your GF Wike, it’s called Protocol.

Just hurry up and step down along with your friend Fayose for the Incoming President PGO, your top appointments in his cabinet will be guaranteed.

Why should you visit him when you have been busy fighting everyone.

Isn't it obvious that Wike is only positioning himself for the VP position. A presidential candidate would rather make friends with others not the other way round

we all know that obaseki is not good, yet Edo people still vote for him just to prevent godfatherism in Edo state, worse is that Adams went to bring someone he called thief for Edo people.

Well Obaseki have 2 years left and I hope he use the remaining year to work for the good people of Edo state
