"The Comrade In Oshiomhole Has Died, He Is Now Wearing Imported Safari Suits" - Gov. Wike

Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has blasted Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole over his penchant for lies and his confirmed inconsistencies.

Speaking when he granted audience to the Inter-Party Advisory Council (IPAC ), the Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Ezenwo Wike has berated Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole over his penchant for lies and his confirmed inconsistencies, simply because he is in a panic mode over the rejection of the APC in Edo State.

The Governor who spoke at the Rivers State at the Government House in Port Harcourt on Wednesday, denied the false allegation by Oshiomhole that he sent N2billion to the Edo State PDP Governorship candidate, saying that it is shocking that at his age, Oshiomhole still believes in drama and lies.

He said that he was shocked by Oshiomhole’s allegation because on the day of the campaign, he met with the outgoing governor alongside other APC Governors at the Benin airport where they all embraced. "Oshiomhole even cornered me and said ' don't mind these people, they don't know that we meet and talk," he said.

He said: "If Oshiomhole has lost the confidence of his people, he should not blame me. He brought the President and 10 APC Governors and he was not satisfied. Only because two PDP governors visited Edo State, Oshiomole is panicking. Oshiomhole at his age should stop dramatising and telling lies. What will his children say when they see him behave like that."

Governor Wike added: "If you cannot win election, you cannot win election no matter the number of security reports that you write.

"Oshiomhole doesnt know when to stop lying. Why do you think that you will continue to deceive the people. This was the same man who praised former President Goodluck Jonathan for promoting free and fair election, one man, one vote which saw Oshiomhole win a second term. Today in his notorious inconsistency, anywhere Oshiomhole goes, he insults the former President. When President Buhari leaves office, Oshiomole will do the same to him."

He noted that he was in Edo State to campaign for the PDP the same way that Oshiomhole stormed Rivers State in 2015 to campaign for the then APC Governorship candidate in the state.

The governor explained that : "What I told Edo people that has set Oshiomhole in panic mode is that they should not trust INEC or the security agencies because they will never be neutral. I still repeat that the Edo people must remain vigilant so that they their votes will count."

He charged Nigerians to disregard Oshiomhole’s lies as he is no longer pro-people. "The Comrade in Oshiomhole has died long ago. There is no Comrade in him. From Khaki, he is now wearing costly imported Safari Suits."
