Edo North Senator, Adams Oshiomhole, says Senate President Godswill Akpabio thinks he is the devil, alleging that there are many agents he does not know.
Oshiomhole made this remark on Sunday during a Mic on Podcast interview, warning that the 11th Senate will not be like the 10th Senate.
When asked if he had become a threat to Akpabio, the former Edo state governor stated that fellow senators are quietly complaining about the approach of Akpabio’s leadership style.
“He is paranoid about everything that has to do with me. Everybody in the Senate knows that if Sen. If Akpabio has his way, he will lock me out of the Senate because he has misled himself into thinking that I’m probably the devil he knows.
“However, there are many agents he doesn’t know, and the 11th Senate will not be the 10th Senate. This I can say, senators are groveling about his style of leadership,” he said.
Recall that the sour relationship between both former governors, who are now senators started when the Senate amended its rules ahead of the 2027 political cycle.
The rift escalated into a volatile shouting match on the floor of the Nigerian Senate when the upper chamber amended Orders 4 and 5 of its standing rules.
GISTSMATE MEDIA reports that Oshiomhole also alleged that Akpabio’s daughter secured a “juicy position” in the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPC, without following due process.
Oshiomhole made the allegation while speaking on the Mic On Podcast hosted by Seun Okinbaloye, where he defended his comments on the Senate’s handling of issues relating to the NNPC and a bench warrant issued against former NNPC Group Chief Executive Officer, Mele Kyari.
The former Edo State governor also accused Akpabio of having a personal interest in the NNPC, claiming that Kyari facilitated the appointment of the Senate President’s daughter.
According to Oshiomhole, information available to him suggested that the appointment was not made through the normal recruitment process. READ MORE
