EDO 2023: OSHIOMHOLE CAUGHT ON VIDEO DIRECTING DISORDER IS ABSURD AND PRIMITIVE- Ogbaloi




The Edo State Labour Party Chairman, Comrade Kelly Ogbaloi has described as primitive and absurd, the alleged  video  in which the former Edo State governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole was seen allegedly instructing  some youths to harass labour party members and its supporters. 

Ogbaloi made the remarks yesterday in a press briefing at the  Party Secretariat in Benin City, the Edo State capital. 

According to him,
"there is before us and the general public, a video, in which the former governor of Edo state, Adams Oshiomhole was spotted,  instructing  APC thugs and their youth wings to intimidate Labour Party members and its supporters.

"This, in our view, is absurd and primitive, that a supposed distinguished person of Adams Oshiomhole could be seen openly directing a disorder.

"More surprising is that the APC and the PDP  in the capacity of their representatives, signed into a peace accord organized by the Edo police Commissioner, where we had a huge embodiment of Security Agencies. To condescend  from this agreement to the very level Adams Oshiomhole spoke is unacceptable.

"The Security Agencies, the Police Commissioner is hereby asked to call Oshiomhole for interrogation and we add that if there is any break down of law and order in the state, that Oshiomhole should be held responsible.

He further added that,
"It is instructive to note  that the  All Progressives  Congress ( APC) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have resolved to bully and intimidate Labour Party members and its supporters but our Party can no longer accept the way things are currently going, so we are handing over these two political parties to the law enforcement Agencies to place them  on their watchlist.

"As we speak, the Liaison officer at  Ovia South West Local government  Council appointed by the Edo state governor  is said to be  harassing our members and supporters  for not supporting their own candidates and we are by this, notifying the general public and the authorities concerned  to call these political parties and their representatives to order.

"Finally, we advise our supporters to continue to be law abiding in all our campaigns but should not yield to any form of intimidations but be reassured in our collective resolve that taking Nigeria out of this national malaise will soon be achieved", he concluded.

All efforts to reach the former governor, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole was not successful, as calls  to his phone were not connecting.
