Edo deputy governor under fire over assault on Oshiomhole
On Thursday, Elvis Presley, a media advisor to All Progressives Congress senatorial candidate for Edo North Adams Oshiomhole, called Philip Shaibu out for allegedly introducing Oshiomhole to politics.
Presley referred to Shuaibu’s remarks as disgraceful and complete falsehoods in a statement that was made accessible to journalists on Thursday.
According to a statement, Mr. Philip Shaibu, the deputy governor of Edo State, “took up the character of a complete ideological misfit and an inglorious opportunist in a State he has grossly demonstrated his embarrassing level of mental and intellectual deficiencies” recently during a visit to HRH, Peter Osigbemeh, the Onwue-weko of Okpekpe kingdom, Etsako East LGA of Edo State.
The statement said that Mr Shaibu’s attempt to discredit Oshiomhole’s political activities while he was speaking to the monarch was unsuccessful.
It continues: “It is important to remember that Philip Shaibu began off very incorrectly when he claimed to have introduced Comrade Oshiomhole to politics.
What a manner the evil pursue falsehoods and inexactitudes!
He spoke like a prodigal son bragging about having fathered his father as he basks in the glory of his miserliness.
It’s a regrettable claim that only a completely credulous audience could find believable.
Thank God, the residents of North Ibie are not only well-informed, sage, and critical-thinking, but they are also aware of Philip’s past mishaps and his reputation as a mere loquacious.
Accordingly, for the record, Shaibu was just another rolling stone in sideline politics before Comrade Oshiomhole took him and forced him to work in the light of his (Oshiomhole’s) goodwill and widespread acceptance, adding that Philip Shaibu ran for office in 2003 but was ejected and humiliated by Hon. Abdulai Imodagbe and his few political supporters attempted to have him display alleged thuggery but were unsuccessful.
“Perhaps it is important to point out how politically ignorant Philip Shaibu was before the arrival of the People’s President, as Oshiomhole was affectionately known.
Emperor Jarrett Tenebe was named chairman of the Metallurgical Training Institute, Onitsha, by former president Obasanjo in 2006.
Alhaji Yakson Musa, Alhaji Aneru Abu, the late Hon. Zakawanu Garuba, Hon. Matthew Udueriyekeme, Mr Akeem Zibiri, Mr Solomon Obomighie, Chief Richard Lamai, and many others planned a reception for Tenebe at Polaris Hotel, Afashio-Uzairue in Etsako West LGA to identify with him.
The elegant dining room of the hotel was fairly nearby the area where the wedding was held.
Among the dignitaries who were present at the event were the late Chief Tony Anenih, who served as the PDP Chairman of the Board of Trustees, Dr Liyel Imoke, the Minister of Mines and Steel at the time, Chief Mike Oghiadome, the Deputy Governor of Edo State, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, the PDP Chairman of Edo State at the time, Chief Solomon Aguele, and Chief Dan Orbih, the First Member
The dignitaries were requested to relocate to the upscale dining room after the customary speeches for a special treat.
Shaibu tried to enter the hall, but he was immediately barred from doing so since his personality could not ensure his admission.
Hon. Matthew Udueriyekeme tried to intervene at that moment, but his request was rejected. It wasn’t until Comrade Adams Oshiomhole arrived and expressly addressed Alhaji Yakson Musa as the event’s chief host that Philip was finally permitted to enter within with Comrade Adams Oshiomhole.
In an attempt to de-market Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, the Deputy Governor has paraded Senator Alimikhena for a third term while pretentiously posing as an advocate for young people running for elected office. Everyone is aware that Philip exemplifies the ideal Nigerian youth in the worst possible way. Therefore, he cannot try to facilitate a process for the articulation of Nigerian young political engagement. Even though he had a very bad performance in the last 9th Senate, Comrade Oshiomhole is unquestionably and astoundingly miles superior to the PDP factional candidate being paraded by the Deputy Governor in terms of agility, and physical, mental, and intellectual health.
