Edo guber: Esan youths slam dep speaker over endorsement of Obaseki

The Deputy Speaker of Edo State House of Assembly, Mr. Justin Okonobo, has come under attack by Esan youths over his alleged endorsement of All Progressives Congress, APC, governorship aspirant, Mr. Godwin Obaseki.
President of Esan Youth Movement, EYM, Kingsley Ohens, in a statement on Sunday, in Benin, said: “It is laughable that it was only the Deputy Speaker of Edo State House of Assembly, Mr. Okonobo, who endorsed Godwin Obaseki on behalf of Esan people and Edo central. That shows that Edo central will produce the next governor.

‘’Let us advise Governor Adams Oshiomohle to be careful of bad advisers around him. It is now obvious that Obaseki is Oshiomhole’s candidate and not a candidate of APC or the people of Edo State. However, Oshiomhole should be more concerned about how to leave a more united state and stronger APC by allowing Edo Central to produce his successor.”
