Edo State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has fired back at Crusoe Osagie, the Special Adviser to the State Governor on Media Project for his outburst against the party.
Responding, through its Publicity Secretary, Prince Peter Uwadiae-Igbinigie, APC said, “it is instructive to note that Mr. Crusoe Osagie has taken delight in continually misinforming and standing on the pedestal of aggrandisement and political grandstanding in encapsulating the poor state of governance of his mere political relevant Governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki.
“Crusoe Osagie should know that the pot of porridge that he is served by the rotten government of Godwin Obaseki cannot atone for the pains that his unsavory voice has caused Edo people.”
Going further, the APC stated that “has Crusoe Osagie shot his computer against the well documented disenchantment of the State Executive Committee of the party he represent(PDP) which culminated in the well advertised press release authorised by the State Vice Chairman, Hon. Omagbon and the State Secretary, Mr. Hillary Otsu and the chairmen of the eighteen local government chapters of their party, the PDP, to the effect that they rejected the list of the State Campaign Council and the reason for the rejection is that they abhorred the secrecy surrounding the chambolic visit of their embattled Presidential candidate to Edo State come 22nd October, 2022.
“It will do Crusoe Osagie personal and political good if he restrained from making public statements which further demeaned the battered image of the party(PDP) which is almost now near non-existent in Edo State.”
Still talking about the PDP Presidential Campaign rally APC stressed, “so, we must remind Mr. Crusoe Osagie that the Edo people are not unaware of the unholy move by the Governor to hoodwink the Civil Servants to suffocate themselves in the muddy water of politics by making the Heads of Ministries, Parastatals to deploy them to the stadium on Saturday, 22nd October, 2022 for their party(PDP) Presidential rally.
“We challenge Crusoe Osagie to stand on the corridor of truth to deny the moves by the Edo State to buying people in other political parties, market women, civil servants with paltry sum of N5,000 and wrappers for the purpose of flooding the venue of the event as if they’re members of the PDP, a move to cover up the dwindling fortune of the party in the state.”
