Deputy governor of Edo state, Phillip Shaibu on Monday says Governor Godwin Obaseki is an ingrate who has offended a lot of people in the state.
Speaking in an interview with Arise TV, Shaibu who worked for the victory of Monday Okpebholo, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), urged Obaseki to start apologising to use the remaining time he has in office to beg all those he has offended.
“Obaseki has never won any election before. We have always assisted him. But unfortunately, he got the power and he decided to start kicking us and removing the ladder. It is very unfortunate. I hope he learns his lesson”.
“What is left for him now is to go back and start begging and apologising to people of Edo state and he has a lot of them that he needs to go and apologise to”.
“We made Obaseki governor. I continue to insist because Obaseki was never a politician. Obaseki never voted just like Asue in Edo state but when Oshiomhole convinced us on why we should support him, we all came together to support him. Second term, you also saw the role we played. We also made him the governor”
“Today, all of us that God put together to assist Obaseki to become governor of Edo state, first and second term, Obaseki has offended all of us and pushed us out of PDP”.
