Former Governor of Edo State and the suspended National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Comrade Adams Oshiomhole has stated that Governor Godwin Obaseki is not a threat to his party in the forthcoming Edo governorship election.

Oshiomhole made the statement while responding to a question on if Obaseki’s popularity was a threat to his party in an interview on Channels TV Sunday Politics.

Oshiomhole stated that Obaseki who is the flagbearer of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) is not a threat because he is not even eligible to contest elections.

He further described the Edo state Governor as a snail involved in a race tigers are in.

Oshiomhole said;

“How can he be a threat? A man who is not even eligible to contest elections? How can a snail be a threat in a race where tigers are involved?”
