Former President Goodluck Jonathan has said that the 2015 general elections which he lost to late former President Muhammadu Buhari were full of betrayals.
Jonathan said Nigeria’s political atmosphere was full of betrayals and lies.
He spoke in Benin City at the 70th birthday ceremony of his former Chief of Staff and former Edo Deputy Governor Chief Mike Ogiadomhe.
The former President named Ogiadomhe as an ally he could trust at all times.
“I became president , then post presidency, one of the few friends that can give up their necks for me is Mike. You know politics, in the Nigerian standard, is about betrayals.
“You find it difficult to see somebody who will say the same thing in the morning and in the evening. I’ve witnessed a lot of betrayals, especially my 2015 elections, and Mike is somebody who would take a bullet on my behalf.
“He is somebody that you can take his word to the bank. Most other politicians, you cannot take their words to the bank. They will tell you something, the next one hour they are saying another”.
Governor Monday Okpebholo, who was represented by his Deputy, Dennis Idahosa, said the foundation the celebrant laid as Deputy was still being followed.
Former Governor Lucky Igbinedion said he used to hand over affairs of the State to Ogiadomhe as Deputy Governor whenever he travelled abroad.
Other dignitaries present were Professor Osarhiemen Osunbor; former Gombe Governor, Ibrahim Dakwambo as well as Edo former Deputy Governors Rev. Peter Obadan, Pius Odubu and Marvelous Omobayo.
