Rivers-State-Governor-Nyesom-Wike
The Rivers Governor, Nyesom Wike has lambasted his Edo State counterpart, Godwin Obaseki, describing him as a serial betrayer and ungrateful person. Governor Wike said this while responding to Obaseki’s diatribes against him in an adversorial.
Earlier, Wike had this while speaking at the inauguration of the Eastern Bypass Road in Port Harcourt lambasted Edo State, Deputy Governor, Philips Shaibu asking who’s his father?
Wike also reminded Shaibu of how he was running ‘helter-skelter’ to beg for the PDP ticket during the Edo 2021 gubernatorial elections.
Obaseki while responding said he will not accept political bullies and overlords, reminding Wike how he had dethroned bullies and high handed leaders.
Obaseki said Wike shoul have taken a cue from the way the national chairman, Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, responded to Shaibu’s remarks.
He collaborated Shaibu’s complaint that “the leaders, executives and members” who defected along with him from the All Progressives Congress (APC) have not been accepted, integrated and harmonised into the Edo PDP.
He lamented that the defectors were being vilified and ostracised by a cabal led by Chief Dan Orbih.
Obaseki wondered why Wike is always fond of threatening the party and party leaders.
Wike said Edo Governor’s former godfather and former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomole, had been vindicated.
He tendered an unreserved apology to Oshiomole for ignoring his warnings about Obaseki saying everything Oshiomole said about the character of the Edo Governor had come to pass.
Wike said, “If you ask anybody or check the DNA of Obaseki, you will discover that he is a serial betrayer and an ungrateful person.
“I apologise to Oshiomole who told us about Obaseki. You have been vindicated.”
