Crusoe Osagie, the special adviser to the governor of Edo State on media projects, has claimed that Adams Oshiomhole’s recent comments on the outcome of Governor Godwin Obaseki’s reelection in the Edo State House of Assembly elections reveal Oshiomhole’s cunning plot to remove Obaseki through impeachment.
Osagie expressed his trust in the Edo people in a statement on Sunday, saying that, like in 2020, they would turn out in large numbers to support the Peoples Democratic Party and elect a PDP-controlled House on Saturday, March 11.
Osagie said, “The recent statement by the former Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole on the fate of governor Godwin Obaseki in the Edo State House of Assembly polls exposes his insidious plan to oust the current governor through impeachment.
“We are, however, confident that, like it happened in 2020 when Edo people stood with the governor despite the bullying and intimidation by Oshiomhole and his paymasters, Edo people will again rise in defence of the governor at the polls on Saturday, March 11; vote massively for the Peoples Democratic Party and elect a House controlled by the PDP.
“Obaseki has never placed his confidence in any man or godfather. He has placed his confidence in God and the people.”
However, Victor Oshioke, Chief Media aide to Oshiomhole said Obaseki is scared of the looming consequences of his reign of terror.
He said, “Godwin Obaseki is a corrosive politician whose attitudes are patently leprous in nature. He contaminates and destroys any party, place, or person that he associates with.”
