Ex campaign spokesman for ex-Vice President, Atiku Abubakar, Kassim Afegbua has come out to say that Godwin Obaseki is currently manipulating his Deputy, Philip Shaibu amid the ongoing verbal war occasioned by an intra-party crisis.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, he is in doubt if they (Obaseki and Shaibu) will live to enjoy the spoil of their new agitation, and he just cannot understand how arrogant both Edo leaders have become.

Kassim added that Obaseki is only making Shaibu the fall-guy of a system that has been heavily compromised in terms of failed promises and empty rhetorics.

His words, “For being an insider to all processes that threw up Governor Obaseki and his Deputy, Governor Wike knows exactly what he was talking about. And the solution to all these is the 9-lettered word; gratitude.”

“Just show appreciation and gratitude… Otherwise, the present political impasse in the state will continue its macabre dance.”

“Governor Obaseki and his co-travellers often behave like political asylum seekers. As migrants who were helped to cross the border, they got into the asylum camp, participated in the internal politics of the camp, and got familiar with it. Having been given residency, they now want to undo the real citizens of the country.”

“In fact, they are telling the real citizens that though they are migrants, but that the other integrative laws apply to them. And that if the host country refuses to accord them the leadership, they are ready to tear down the walls, flag, and other insignia that the country holds dear. I doubt if they will live to enjoy the spoil of their new agitation.”

“What Governor Obaseki cannot say, he pushes his pliant Deputy to vomit, making him the fall-guy of a system that has been heavily compromised in terms of failed promises and empty rhetorics.”

“Obaseki’s Deputy, Phillip Shuaibu, often wants to be seen as fearless, outspoken, and more political than his boss.”
