The Upcoming Edo Election Is A Matter Of Life And Death For Oshiomole – River State Gov

The Chairman of the National Campaign Council of the Peoples Democratic Party and River State Governor Governor, Mr Nyesom Wike, has said at the media briefing in Portharcourt on Monday that for the sacked national chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Mr Adams Oshiomhole, the upcoming Edo State governorship election was a matter of life and death and it is either he wins or loose because of the issues on ground .

Wike said, “The best he (Oshiomhole) could do is to lay low and let Ize-Iyamu campaign. You can see that if Mr Ize-Iyamu talks for two minutes, Oshiomhole will talk for 20 minutes because he knows this election will determine whether he will remain in politics or not.

“So, he takes it as a matter of life and death. He knows that losing this election, he is completely out. He has been decimated in the APC national leadership. So, the only thing now is to hold Edo to see that anyhow they treat him in Abuja, he has where to fall back to.

“Now Obaseki is winning, Abuja does not want him, Edo does not want him. So, he has nowhere to go to. This third term agenda is trying to run and Edo people must resist him.”
