Former Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Chief John Odigie-Oyegun, has said he is ashamed that Godwin Obaseki, Governor of Edo State, and his predecessor, Adams Oshiomhole, are at loggerheads over the control of the state.
John Oyegun, who himself is also a former Edo State governor, made his position known in an interview with journalists at his residence in Benin, the state capital, on the occasion of his 80th birthday.
He said the origin of the feud between the two politicians, who he described as friends, was unfathomable, describing the dispute between the duo as unfortunate.
Oyegun said: “All of us are dancing round the crisis, but we do not know what started the conflict between two friends.
“But for me, I listen to the people who said he is performing. Please, let him continue if the people feel he is doing well.
“Quite frankly, what is going on is ridiculous. We are beyond this kind. I am ashamed. Our people have contributed so much to the stability of the State.
“It is unfortunate that Edo State has been in the news for the very wrong reasons, apart from abusing ourselves, you (media) owe the nation a great commitment towards making sure that the truth prevail.”
