A group under the aegis of “Team Alimikhena” has advised former Edo governor, Adams Oshiomhole, to join the presidential race and not engage in an unnecessary battle with Senator Francis Alimikhena over a senatorial seat.
They urged the former National Chairman of All Progressives Congress not to get carried away with the endorsements by people they described as “selfish”.
The group advised the former governor in a signed press statement by the convener, Sunny Ifijen and its Secretary, Omeiza Ogumah.
They urged the former governor not to be carried away with the endorsements by people they described as selfish.
The Team Alimikhena also warned that aside pursuing their personal interest, the endorsement merchants want to place a wedge in the harmonious relationship that Oshiomhole and Alimikhena have enjoyed over the years
The statement read, “If those dragging Oshiomhole to seek for the Edo North senate seat are guinuinely concern about the progress of Oshiomhole, they should have advised him to join the Presidential race which have practically been zoned to the South.
“Of course, they won’t. Their aim will not be realised from this, rather, only see their evil ways manifesting through the Edo North senatorial seat.
“As part of their hatched plans, they have occupied themselves with the task of spreading fake and in some cases, falsed endorsement that is not in tune with the reality in the senatorial district.
“Those of us who genuinely wish Oshiomole well have advised him to stabilize Edo North APC by allowing incumbent Senator and memebrs of the House of Representatives return in 2023.
