As the crisis within the APC in Edo state deepens, Governor Godwin Obaseki, the state governor, yesterday denied claims made by supporters of his predecessor and APC National Chairman, Adams Oshiomole, that the latter facilitated his emergence as governor of the state

. Obaseki denied the claims at a meeting organized by members of the APC in the state to ratify the suspension of Oshiomole from the party.

He stressed that no one made him a governor and that his emergence as a governor is by the grace of God. Speaking at the meeting, Obaseki who has been in a running battle with Oshiomole, the APC National Chairman,

said he is not happy with the recent political developments in the state, especially the disruptions from a once-trusted leader who has thrown caution to the wind to cause disaffection among APC members in the state.

While speaking to the party faithfuls, the governor said when he first met Oshiomhole 12 years ago, they shared a common interest in salvaging Edo State but all that has changed in recent times.”I am not an ungrateful person.

No one made me governor. I became governor by God’s grace, with the support of many other people. If God had said I would not be governor, no way would I have been a governor. It is wrong for someone to say he made me governor.“No one gave me money.

The funds Oshiomhole initially raised for his governorship ambition was raised by me in Lagos. If I can raise money for him for his election, why would I not be able to raise money for my own election.If you came into power on some basic principles, do not expect to change those principles because you have certain ambition.

If you came to power believing no man is God, then the day you start to play God, you will get the consequences.” Obaseki said At the meeting, the Executive Council of APC Edo State, ratified the suspension of Oshiomhole from the party in the state.

The leaders said the suspension of Comrade Oshiomhole became necessary because the national chairman has been deploying divisive tactics to cause disharmony in the party in collaboration with the proscribed group, Edo Peoples Movement (EPM).
