The Secretary-General
of the Edo State Peace Forum, Alhaji Jimoh Aziz has called on the National
Chairman of the APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomole and Governor Obaseki to sheath
their swords.
The Secretary-General
described as unhealthy a situation where, within the same Party, there is no
peace, questioning the rationale behind the chaos.
The Secretary-General
who was briefing Journalists at the Benin Airport wondered what was amiss as
both the Obaseki and Oshiomole had worked cordially for several years before
now. “Now the State is suffering; there
is confusion; and no one is certain about what would happen next”, Alhaji Jimoh
announced.
Explaining further,
Alhaji Jimoh referred to Lagos State where the APC House of Assembly were also
aiming for the throat of former Governor Ambode even in a situation of relative
calm.
Alhaji Jimoh
expressed regret that upon all these, Party Leaders were keeping mum, and
behaving as if it is none of their business.
“We have no other country than our own Nigeria. We should did all our best to make sure we
don’t derail the boat”, he stressed.
However, despite
calls for truce, both camps are unrelenting and increasing the tempo of the
warfare. As both parties dig in, estranged members of the Edo State House of
Assembly have called on federal authorities to intervene. But Obaseki who wields
executive powers has dares the federal might Oshiomole is flaunting against
him.
