“My Father, My Leader”: Edo Deputy Governor Shaibu Extends Heartfelt Message to Oshiomhole

Amidst ongoing political differences and impeachment proceedings, Edo State’s Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu, extended a heartfelt birthday message to Senator Adams Oshiomhole. Despite their current discord, Shaibu acknowledged Oshiomhole as not only a remarkable leader but also a father figure.

Both Shaibu and Oshiomhole were previously allies within the All Progressives Congress (APC). However, they later defected from the party along with Governor Godwin Obaseki to join the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Despite their political realignments, Shaibu chose to commemorate Oshiomhole’s 72nd birthday with a message of respect and admiration.

Taking to Facebook, Shaibu expressed his joy in celebrating Oshiomhole’s milestone birthday. He highlighted Oshiomhole’s significant contributions to humanity and wished him continued strength and success in shaping the world.

Shaibu’s gesture serves as a reminder that amidst political differences, personal respect and appreciation can transcend party lines. It underscores the importance of acknowledging individuals for their positive impact, regardless of differing ideologies or current disputes.
