Anenih will fail again in Edo -----Oshiomhole
Speaking at a rally of the All Progressives Congress, APC,
at Ekpoma in Edo Central senatorial district, Oshiomhole said the people of
Esan land should ask Anenih the role he played in the alleged humiliation,
rigging and eventual incarceration of the late governor of the defunct Bendel
State, Professor Ambrose Alli.
According to the Oshiomhole, the time has come for the
people Esanland to know who played what role in the development of Esanland.
He urged the people to be wary of the antics and lies of
expired godfathers whose stock in trade is to mislead and deceive the people.
Oshiomhole said, “The people must know the truth. Once upon
a time, Bendel people from Delta to Edo elected one of your sons, Prof Ambrose
Alli of blessed memory. He was elected not only by Esan people but by the
entire Bendel State. He established the Ambrose Alli University. You cannot
forget the roads he built in Esan land and beyond Esan land. Who removed
Ambrose Alli from power? The NPN and their Chieftains in Esanland.”
Oshiomhole continued: “Chief Anenih came here to say it was
General Buhari who jailed Ambrose Alli. You voted for Alli but we all know who
removed him. They declared somebody else a winner and declared Alli the loser
in an election that he won, exactly what they did to me. Anenih must be told
part of his sins against Esan people for which he will never be forgiven.
“He can never rewrite history. He cannot run away from his
own shadow. The sins he committed against Ambrose Alli will never be forgiven.
He must be punished with your votes. I was shocked they have gone to recruit
one of Alli’s daughters to join them to campaign.
“The lady needs to think again. You cannot dine with the
people who removed the crown from the head of your father. So when they say Buhari
was the Head of State when Alli was jailed, do you know what they jailed Alli
for? It was that Alli gave a contract to a leader who is a top notcher in PDP
today. The man did not do the job. That was what led to the military
investigation of Alli.
“Never again should they come to lie to you. I have given
you several reasons why PDP must go and APC must come. I urge you to go home
and spread the good news. We want General Buhari to come. They say he has no
certificate but he became a General”
The aovernor also accused the PDP Federal Government of
further impoverishing the poor through its kerosene scam. Speaking at separate
rallies at Ikpoba Okha and Oredo Local Government Areas in Edo South Senatorial
district, Oshiomhole said, “From Otuoke to Benin City to Lagos to Ekpoma to
Iyahmo to Sokoto, kerosene is now N150-N160 per litre. For every N150 you spend
in buying kerosene, PDP steals N100 because in the books of NNPC, they have it
on records that kerosene is N50 per litre.
“When a government cheats the poor people to enrich few
people who are buying private jets, will you vote for that kind of party again?
When we say President Jonathan should go home, it is not out of hatred. After
16 years, PDP is like an impotent man, it cannot bring development to the
nation. They cannot give light, they cannot provide jobs, they cannot repair
refineries, they can only produce poverty.”
