My Father, Oshiomhole Has Derailed – Shaibu, Edo Dep Gov
The Deputy Governor of Edo State, Comrade Philip Shaibu has said that the national chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC has derailed from the core values he taught his political subordinates.
Responding to issues about his relationship with his one time political patron, Shaibu in a statement said the present dispute in Edo State was centered on bringing the immediate past governor of the state back to good manners.
Shaibu in a statement issued by the Special Adviser to the Edo State Governor on Media and Communication Strategy, Mr. Crusoe Osagie, affirmed that Shaibu has not in any way betrayed his political father, Comrade Oshiomhole, in the ongoing challenges facing the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo State.
In a statement, he said what Comrade Shaibu is doing in the ongoing face-off is exactly what Adams Oshiomhole taught him through the years which is to fight for the oppressed and downtrodden in society.
He said: “It is the dream of a father for his son to imbibe his principles and surpass his achievements, and that is what he has been doing. Oshiomhole taught us activism, forthrightness, and standing for what you believe in. He is still our father and we are living by the principles he taught us.
“The unfortunate thing is that for some unexplainable reasons, our father seems to be deviating from the principles which he taught us. The real fight is against those trying to take him away from us, and others trying to shake him off the very principles he has lived by almost all his life. His position in our lives is intact and the principles he taught us, we hold sacrosanct.”
