How Jonathan threatened to cage me —Oshiomhole


Edo State Governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole has revealed how former President Goodluck Jonathan threatened to cage him after May 29 2015, for throwing his weight behind the candidature of President Muhammadu Buhari in the last general elections.

Speaking at a meeting with APC leaders across the three Senatorial Districts of Edo State yesterday, Thursday 14th January 2016, , a highly elated Oshiomhole said "around this time last year, the tension in Nigeria was such that Prophets of doom around the world were almost unanimous that Nigeria would not survive 2015 but as you can see, man proposes, God disposes.

"Around this time last year, in January, a few weeks to the election, many were saying quite recklessly on radio and television that we were finished.

"The former President, Goodluck Jonathan told our National Chairman, Chief John Odigie Oyegun to inform me that after the election, he will put me, Adams, the son of Oshiomhole in a hole and I told Chief Oyegun to inform him to dig that hole very deep because although I am short, in the course of pushing me into the hole, nobody knows who will get there first.

"Since he is taller than me, he needs to dig the hole deep enough so that either of us can get in. In the end, he is inside the hole and I am busy putting dust into that hole".

Oshiomhole continued, "In this hall, around this time last year, we held a meeting to share information about what was going on in various local governments and the specific challenges in each of those local government in order to fashion out appropriate response.

"Some of the statements that we shared in those meetings included threats that by June, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole would have been impeached because PDP would write results whether we liked it or not. They would overrun the House of Assembly and once the House is proclaimed in June, before the end of June, Comrade would be banished to his house in the village and from there to prison.

"Those who made those threats, who supervised those processes, even now in their early 90s are writing letters to explain how they shared money meant for defence. Every evil weapon they fashioned against me did not prosper and even the ones they are fashioning now will not prosper.”

Reminding the party leaders of the journey so far and how the Party has risen from ground zero to become the leading party in Nigeria, Oshiomhole said, "When we came in about 7 years ago, my party had no control even of one ward. We had no control of one local government, but today, we control wards, local, state and by the special grace of God, federal. Things have changed. The one who tamed a lion with bare hands, now with automatic weapons, no antelope can dare us in our own forest.”

Typical wailers.
Flee from the haunting message, join the bandwagon to attack the messenger.
You will never see them discuss the issues in a post/report. All they do is expose their defficiencies by throwing insults here & there.

You think you can better your lots this way?

You just have to read the comments up there to discover the reason why Nigerian youths are no longer taken seriously by the politicians that rule over them.

I don't understand a thing you just wrote. Decrypt please

Jonathan was hated and loved in equal measures.
But this is the first time, I'm hearing he personally used such uncouth language.
And why will he tell the APC chairman what he plans to do with an APC Governor.
It just does not add up.
Is the caging metaphorical or literal?
I think there is some bad blood between Oshiomole and Jonathan and Okonjo iweala. The way he spends energy on them is unusual.

when will apc ever stop wailing? useless party.

sure

Oshiomole!!! Devil has caged you inside that black bad looking container already. You stil dey find caging again? Women are courageous o! So you will wake up in the middle of the night beside this guy and be happy??

Only God knows what Jonathan and his cronies would have turned edo state into if he had won re-election.
They had their plans rolled out already, and had started causing chaos and making the state ungovernable in the months leading to the last elections.
But God made them to know where ultimate power resides.

Remember how Oshiomole hosted a party to celebrate Jonathan's defeat?

There were so many things that happened, and are still happening. They are not too complex for the discerning minds. But (some) Nigerian youths just chose not to understand.

Jonathan is just been ridiculed every here and there not for anything but for the fact that he doesn't understand how to use the power at his disposal, he was gradually becoming a dictator in a democracy. If he had won re-election, we would by now be experiencing the beast in him. This is a lesson to us all, whatever position we are privilege to hold we should dispense our authority judiciously because no matter how long we may wish to stay, it will always come to an end one day, and we will become an item of ridicule or we are respected and honoured.

We have to clearly choose the path of the legacy we wish to be remembered for.

Where is lara, he's taking pictures without her.

oshiomole is just making political statement.

Whom God has blessed no man can curse, Jonathan the hunter later became the hunted.

Tokt:
[b]Jonah-daft is a fool. the same way he planned evil against the General of common sense, Amaechi himself thinking that after his election, he will finish up Amaechi. Shame on him. Till date his people in Otuoke are still crying.............No water to drink

Yes o!
Jonathan's loss will forever remain a testimony to good people in Nigeria.

Na God get power!

Who later caged OshiOmoOle?

I wish he did.


You and APC finally caged Nigerians with hardship, but we will liberate ourselves at the polls.
