The Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has said that he will show no mercy to his former benefactor and ex-national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole.
Obaseki, who was just re-elected for a second term, gave the hint on Tuesday when he appeared as a guest on Arise TV, monitored by Igbere TV, in Benin City.
When asked about an alleged plot to chase Oshiomhole out of Edo state, Obaseki said he will, if the former governor continues to be disruptive.
“I don’t have any plans to. But if he continues to behave the way he has always done, if he continues to be disruptive, if he continues to fund his lions and tigers in Edo state and tries to create problems for us here then we will not have any mercy.”
Obaseki emerged victorious after a keenly contested election last Saturday defeating his closest rival and Oshiomhole’s anointed candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Osagie Ize-Iyamu.
