Don’t Join Me In Your Gangsterism, Oshiomhole Tells Fayose

    All I can say is wow wow wow…  Oh my God, If you read this ‘warning’ to Governor Fayose, you really won’t like to be him right now. Come on, Governor Oshiomole isn’t even nice when it comes to using words… Oh well…
    The Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole, on Thursday urged
    his Ekiti State counterpart, Governor Ayodele Fayose, not to drag his
    (Oshiomhole) name into the “political gangsterism that has become peculiar with
    the Ekiti State Governor.”
    Oshiomhole spoke in reaction to a statement credited to the
    Ekiti Governor that he (Oshiomhole) shut down the Edo State House of Assembly
    and relocated sitting to the Government House.

    The Edo Governor, in a statement by his Chief Press
    Secretary, Mr. Peter Okhiria, said that there was no crisis in state assembly,
    adding that 15 of the 24-member Assembly were members of the All Progressives
    Congress, while the other nine were of the Peoples Democratic Party.
    He explained that of the nine PDP members, three were on
    suspension while the seat of another member had been declared vacant, which he
    said reduced the number of PDP lawmakers in the house.
    While noting that decorum, respect and responsibility were
    elements of governance, Oshiomhole urged his Ekiti counterpart to “stop
    dropping the name of Governor Adams Oshiomhole to shore up his jaded image.”
    Oshiomhole said, “We find it utterly laughable and as the
    height of political childishness for the Ekiti State Governor to hide behind
    his media aides and seek to drag the name of the Governor of Edo State, Comrade
    Adams Oshiomhole, into his crude gangster tactics which he has re-introduced
    into Ekiti politics, less than two months after assuming office.
    “If the Ekiti Governor is too lazy to read and too
    politically illiterate to know what is happening in Edo State House of
    Assembly, we expected his psychedelic media aides to simply shut their loud
    mouths rather than behave like capering neophytes.
    “Even a kindergarten knows that 15 is greater than 5. So if
    five PDP members decide to sit with three suspended members and another, whose
    seat was declared vacant in a chamber which is undergoing renovation, then we
    can at best regard that as the height of crass legislative irresponsibility.
    “It is ridiculous to even contemplate that the Ekiti
    Governor and his media aides do not know that 15 is greater than five! For
    sure, they seem engrossed with their stomach infrastructure mantra, such a
    dubious contraption which can only be contrived by an ideologically clueless
    and gluttonous administration.
    “But for the kind of democracy we practice in Nigeria, where
    the PDP promotes and condones all manners of illegalities, inanities and
    shenanigans which have become the second nature of that party, Ayodele Fayose
    would have been cooling off his heels in gaol rather than brandishing the
    appellation of being a Governor.
    “We are thoroughly ashamed that Ekiti, hitherto known as the
    fountain of knowledge, is being reduced to a mindless bubble by a man running
    her affairs without a discernible direction like a drowning man clutching
    desperately at flotsam.
    “If Ekiti people, with all their avowed sophistication and
    intellectuality, have elected to present a political rascal as their number one
    citizen, so be it; but they must understand that there is a huge difference
    between character and infamy.”
