Oshiomhole Affirms No Hostility Towards Peter Obi
Adams Oshiomhole, the former Governor of Edo State, clarified during an interview with Symfoni TV that former Anambra State Governor Peter Obi is not his enemy, despite his recent criticisms of Obi’s governance and economic record. Oshiomhole explained that both he and Obi faced political oppression from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP)-led Federal Government while serving as governors under different political parties.
He stated, “Peter Obi is not my enemy. We both suffered at some point as governors.
I was ACN, he was APGA. We were both oppressed by PDP federal might.” Oshiomhole also mentioned that he had invited Obi to Edo State to commission projects during his administration, highlighting that political disagreements should not hinder developmental benefits for the people.
He expressed that his invitation to Obi was not due to any dislike, stating, “Even today, I do not dislike Obi. Don’t misunderstand me.”.
