RHE BROMANCE AND CLIMAX OF OSHIOMOLE AND OBASEKI
The Bromance and Climax of Oshiomole and Obaseki
The political tussle between Obaseki and Oshiomole finally reached a height when Obaseki was declared not qualify to run with the same certificate he used in bidding for his first term ticket. Ironically, it was his A’level certificate that was in question and more ironically, he (Obaseki) decides not to contest the decision. Strange.. isn’t it?
Frankly on this matter, his disqualification isn’t any of my headache, I don’t mind if a former mistake or discrepancies Is been capitalized on to disqualify him, but my worry is if he (Obaseki) have greater enemies than just Oshiomole.
In April and early March 2020, Adams Oshiomole must have went through the biggest crisis of his political career when he was suspended at his ward as an APC member an action funded by some people within the party, suspected culprits are: Obaseki, Gov. Fayemi of Ekiti, Gov. Akeredolu of Ondo and some host of others.
The suspension by his ward gave room for his foes at the party to seek for his suspension and subsequent removal as the national party chairman, a high court in Abuja led by Justice Danlami Senchi issued a court order instructing political parties to obey their constitutions and act accordingly, that since he’s not recognized as a member of the party in his ward, he’s not suppose to be functioning as the nationally leader.
But upon appeal, a federal High court in Kano cancels Abuja high court decision to suspend Oshiomole as the national chairman. Justice Lewis Allagoa upturn the decision to suspend him saying it doesn’t have the judicial power to do so, he ordered the Department of State Service and Nigerian police force to provide security for him to resume office with immediate effect.
Subsequently so, in preparations for the primaries, the APC disqualify him (Obaseki) from participating in the party gobernatotial primaries scheduled June 22. The announcement was made by the chairman of the party that Obaseki and two other aspirant didn’t meet the requirement set by the party to contest in the primaries.
With all the drama climaxing in the last few days, it seem Obaseki is a threat to someone’s ambition in the greater office. Here, we will show you how their bromance started and what happened along the line and eventual result.
Reactions had differed as to what, when and why things starts falling apart.
