Ignore Gov Obaseki’s Complaints, I’m Yet To Receive Post-Election Congratulatory Call From Him-Okpebholo

Edo State Governor-elect, Monday Okpebholo on Sunday, accused Governor Godwin Obaseki, of doing everything possible to frustrate a peaceful transition of power ahead of his swearing-in ceremony on Tuesday.

Team@orientactualmags.com learned that the Governor-elect has done this in reaction to Obaseki’s complaints that no one has invited him to  Okpebholo’s upcoming inauguration ceremony.

In a statement issued in Abuja by his media aide, Godspower Inegbe, Okpebholo submitted that the complaints made by Obaseki ought not to have come from him given that he has not called to congratulate him after winning the guber election.

‘Again, Obaseki also claimed that Senator Okpebholo did not invite him to the inauguration slated for next Tuesday. This is laughable, absurd, and questionable. Since Okpebholo was declared the winner, Obaseki has employed every means to frustrate a peaceful transfer of power.

As a sitting governor, Obaseki should tell Edo people and Nigerians if he has ever invited the governor-elect to Government House for a meeting or a tour as a responsible man. Has Obaseki called Senator Okpebholo to congratulate him since he won the election?

We urge Edo people to disregard Obaseki’s reckless statements and support the incoming administration of Senator Okpebholo to remedy the many wrongs of this government’ he said.

Okpebholo  also said Obaseki had not been seen in the Government House despite the fact that he still has 72 hours before his tenure will end-Team@orientactualmags.com   Do you have any information you wish to share with us?
