‘Mama Oshiomhole’ dragged into son’s feud with Obaseki

Hajiya Aishetu Oshiomhole, the mother of the National Chairman of All Progressives Congress (APC), has been dragged into the increasingly bitter feud between her son, Adams Oshiomhole and his successor as governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki.

As disclosed by Crusoe Osagie, the Special Adviser to Edo State Governor on Media and Communications, Hajiya Aishetu, popularly known as ‘Mama Oshiomhole,’ rejected gift items sent to Comrade Oshiomhole through her on Tuesday evening.

“The messengers said they met the mother of the former governor who rejected the items, stating that her son would not accept the gifts,” Osagie said in a statement on Wednesday.

Osagie said the rejected gifts were conventional Christmas presents reserved for former governors of the state.

He said that messengers from the state government were dispatched to deliver the gifts on Christmas eve.

“The gift items meant for Comrade Oshiomhole include four cows and ten bags of rice”.

He said the distribution of Christmas gifts was an annual ritual by the state government which serves as an expression of love, further strengthening the ties between the government and the people.

He said the gifts were distributed to other government functionaries, political appointees, heads of security agencies, traditional rulers, religious leaders and heads of institutions of higher learning, among other prominent people in the society.

Osagie said Obaseki and Comrade Oshiomhole had been locked in a political tussle over the governor’s policy choices focused on prioritising the peoples’ welfare as against pressures by a handful of politicians to share the state’s resources.

Emnmm. Sending 4 cattle & 10 bags of rice to a single individual in this harsh economy with the state resources all in the name of Christmas. Politicians surely know how to waste our resources.

Obaseki should stop the short man devil pension, lets see if he wouldnt grumble.
