A former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomhole, has revealed that the executive governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki remains his close brother and friend.

Obaseki and Oshiomhole had clashed about two years ago when the Edo governor was campaigning for his second term bid.

This led to Obaseki’s exit from the APC to the Peoples Democratic Party,  where he ran and defeated Osagie Ize-Iyamu, whom Oshiomhole’s anointed APC candidate.

However, in an interview with The PUNCH on Friday, Oshiomhole said that Obaseki remained his close brother and friend despite their reported frosty relationship.

The two-term governor of Edo State also affirmed that he still had fond memories of their time together.

He said, “For me, I have moved on. Obaseki remains my brother and friend. I have had the honour of working with him and God in his infinite power used me to ensure that he became the governor of Edo State.

“Sometimes, God wants us to know that He is the only one that is all-knowing. He is the only one who knows the beginning and the end. When, as human beings, everything seems to add up, we celebrate our intellect. But sometimes, God intervenes just for us to know that we don’t know it all and it is meant to remind us of our limited knowledge of life. He remains my brother and friend.

“When I was governor and he worked under me, my relationship with him was not that of boss and subordinate. He was one of the very few who called me by my nickname. When we travelled together on foreign trips, we didn’t book different suites in a hotel. Instead we shared the same suite in a hotel but slept in separate rooms. That’s how close we were.”
