Adams Oshiomhole apologises to Gov. Obaseki, Oba Akiolu and Chancellor

Posted: 02 Nov 2019 05:26 PM PDT

Comrade Adams Oshiomhole

Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, the National Chairman of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC, has tendered apologises to Godwin Obaseki, the Governor of Edo State; Oba Rilwan Akiolu, the Oba of Lagos, and Chancellor of the Edo State University, Iyahmo, Dr. Makanjuola, over the recent embarrassment by a group of suspected thugs on their convoy at his (Oshiomhole) country home in Estako West Local Government.

The APC National Chairman and former Governor of Edo State said the people that carried out the attack were the thugs who invaded the university community on the orders of the Deputy Governor of the state, Hon Philip Shaibu, Daily Post reports.

According to him, the tension in the community started last Friday when Shaibu allegedly imported thugs into the community with a view to intimidate political opponents.

Oshiomhole's claim was contained in a press statement delivered by Mr. Simon Ebegbulem, his Chief Press Secretary, where the APC National Chairman pointed out that he left the convocation lecture on Thursday through the back so as to avoid being attacked by the thugs who laid siege at the entrance gate of the university.

"Security operatives accosted them at the gate and refused them entrance. The thugs started threatening the security operatives who insisted the deputy governor can enter the venue but they will not allow the thugs to gain access.

"Following their threats the security operatives tear gassed the thugs and the deputy governor. The thugs were dispersed while the deputy governor joined other dignitaries at the venue. This created tension already in the small community.


"However, after the event, Comrade Oshiomhole invited the Oba
of Lagos, the Chancellor and others for lunch at his country home which is right opposite the university. Consequently, he left instruction at the gate that he was expecting these respected leaders.

"So when the visitors came, the governor drove in a bus with other officials but following the incident that occurred earlier where thugs sponsored by the deputy governor invaded the university, Iyamho youths barricaded the gate of the national chairman with a view to protecting him against any harm.

"Unfortunately, these youths sighted Andrew Momodu, Osaigbovo Iyoha in the bus which conveyed the governor to Oshiomhole's residence. They decided to stop them from entering the compound because these were the same people who led the thugs that attacked Oshiomhole's residence in Benin City penultimate week.

"While this confusion was on, the thugs brought by the deputy governor started destroying the vehicles belonging to Oshiomhole's kinsmen.

"I want to state clearly that the vehicles destroyed were not in the convoy of the governor. The thugs targeted the vehicles belonging to Oshiomhole's relations and friend and destroyed them. Thank God for the intervention of soldiers and other security operatives who came to restore peace.

"This would not have happened if not for the thugs who invaded the community loyal to the deputy governor.

"However, Comrade Oshiomhole expresses his sincere apologies to the governor, the revered Oba of Lagos and the Chancellor over the unfortunate incident."

'Since I've left Big Brother House I haven't really explained what's been going on and when my fans will get to see me next, so here's a little update on the situation & my life overall.

I've been out of Big Brother's house 3 weeks now. I've stayed in 2 hotels, 1 apartment, and I'l be moving to another location soon. I'm loving every minute of being back on home soil and spending quality time exploring lagos with my beautiful wife, this city is so electric and fulfilling.

I came with a goal to make the most of the opportunity of a lifetime and I'm embracing the uncertainty of it all. I've had to figure out how to maneuver in Lagos traffic.

I learned that I can't just walk into a local grocery store or bank because I cause too much attention, plus I hardly ever turn down a selfie with my people

I've had some incredible opportunities present themselves already, and it's exciting thinking about the plans. Taking a leap of faith into the unknown is daunting, but it's honestly one of the best decisions I've ever made. I'm going to keep doing these flash life updates of how I'm transitioning back to Nigeria.

Im also working with my managment @theofficialeme_ and road team on something big for my official meet and greet tour which I'll be announcing ASAP you know me, I'm all about details so I can deliver the best

Once again thank you all for being so supportive and understanding with all of this.
P.S It's crazy to think last year I was a homeless Athlete fighting to represent Nigeria, and now I'm a household name. Gods Plan #ManLikeMike'

I'm saying it again, we need to restore sanity to our system and stop tolerationg public nuisance! its mediocracy for anyone to applaud an obviously deliquent and unproductive dead duck _deemed a bad influence) hiding under the guise of making music, obnoxious musice for that matter.

My advice to younger ones: let no one confuse you. To hav a good body part is great……… but to have educational or vocational qualification is more important!
Infact its non negotiable! Your body part cannot give you sustainable existence only good educational or vocational qualification will do…. be guided
