Governor of Edo state, Adams Oshiomhole, has accused the Peoples Democratic Party, of oppressing Nigerians.
Oshiomhole said Nigerians
have continued to suffer under the 16-year leadership of the PDP as a result of
the party’s dedication “to preserve the privileges of the few.”
The governor made the
utterances while receiving defectors from the PDP to the All Progressives
Congress (APC) in Benin, the Edo State capital.
Oshiomhole accused the
Federal Government of not allowing Nigerians enjoy the benefits of the
country’s rich oil deposits, adding that the ruling party is similar to “an
impotent man”.
He said: “Today is not
just the fact of the huge number in this hall but it is also about the quality
of the brains that have now join us; and in a world that is knowledge-driven,
it is only the party that can parade the best brains that can drive the
sustainable change that Nigeria is currently battling with in order to bail our
people from its present political quagmire.”
“The man who has a shop
must close by 6 pm. If he operates beyond 6pm, he must put on a generator, and
buy petrol or diesel. For 16 years, PDP can’t give us light. But if they were
to leave us in peace even in the dark, it will be bad enough but for them, that
is not bad enough.”
“From Otuoke to Benin
City, to Lagos, to Ekpoma, to Iyahmo, to Sokoto, kerosene is now between N150
and N160 per litre. For every N150 you spend in buying a litre of kerosene, PDP
steals N100 because in the books of NNPC, they have it on records that kerosene
is N50 per litre.”
