Oshiomhole

The immediate past National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Adams Oshiomhole, says he made a costly mistake by supporting Godwin Obaseki to become Governor of Edo State in 2016.

The former Governor of the state disclosed this while addressing a mammoth crowd of supporters who trooped to his private resident in Iyamho, Etsako West Local Government Area of the state.

Oshiomhole said the incumbent Governor’s failure to continue on the plethora of projects he started has hindered development in the state in the past three and a half years.

The former APC National Chairman, who expressed delight at the warm reception he received from his people, said he will correct the errors he made in 2016 which saw Obaseki emerge as the Governor in the next September 19 governorship election.

He, therefore, appealed to his people to vote for the APC governorship candidate, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, across the 192 wards in the 18 local government areas of the state.
