Shaibu In Suspense As Obaseki Names Labour House After Oshiomole 

In an intriguing move, the Edo State Governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki has named the Labour House after his predecessor and former benefactor, Senator Adams Oshiomhole.

GWG.ng reports that Obaseki made this move on Monday at the formal unveiling and commissioning of the House, in Benin City by the Governor with Oshiomhole as special guest.

At the event were Presidents of the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) among the guests.

Recall that Oshiomhole, a former NLC President, fell out with Obaseki, his political godson and anointed successor in the Edo 2016 gubernatorial election, during the 2020 re-election polls.

However, both men have been seen lately at public events with the governor repeatedly inviting Oshiomhole to state functions and honoring him.

Some believe that the move is to spite Obaseki’s estranged former deputy, Philip Shaibu, who equally fell out with Oshiomhole, his former godfather, during Obaseki’s 2020 re-election campaign.

GWG.ng reports that Shaibu was impeached earlier in April over irreconcilable differences with Governor Obaseki amid his ambition to succeed his principal (Obaseki) as governor.

He was accused of perjury and disclosure of government’s secrets.
