There is palpable tension in Edo state following the rumored endorsement of chairman of the state's economic team, Mr Godwin Obaseki, by Adams Oshiomhole to be the next governor of the state.
According to Vanguard, the tension is due to the calibre of aspirants in the party, including the Deputy Governor of the state, Dr Pius Odubu, former governor of the state, Prof. Osarhiemen Osunbor, Oshiomhole’s Works Commissioner and political son, Osarodion Ogie, former Minister of State, Works, Dr Chris Ogiemwonyi, Kenneth Imasuagbon (Rice man) and Gen. Charles Airhiavbere.
However, a chieftain of the party, Rev Michael Egharevha, dismissed such threats.
“If Obaseki is the governor’s choice nobody will stop him. Oshiomhole made most of us what we are today and if he decides it is Obaseki, so be it, we will all support him. So if anybody is threatening, it is only a waste of time.”
