His comments were widely criticized by some Nigerians who saw it as a threat to Obi not to visit the state.
The chairman of APC in Edo state, Jarret Tenebe, has made a
controvesial statement against Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of
Labour Party in the 2023 election.
He made the comments after the governor of the state, Monday
Okpebholo had asked Peter Obi to always seek permission from him before
he visits the state.
While speaking at a political rally last Friday, Okpebholo said the
former presidential candidate of Labour party must always seek
clearance from him before he visits the state. Read here.
His comments were widely criticized by some Nigerians who saw it as a threat to Obi not to visit the state.
However, at a press conference held in the state over the weekend,
Tenebe supported the governor.According to him, Obi is well h@ted by
many people in Edo state including himself.
In his words;
‘’There have been a lot of criticism all over the press about
the statement the governor made when he was receiving the remaining of
PDP members in Edo central where he said that Peter Obi has to take
permission before he visits and I think the governor was right in saying
that. The governor can say that because of the kind of hatred people
have for Peter Obi in the state including me and when you have so many
of us that have hatred for people like that, most especially when they
came to Edo state and people d!ed, it is proper for him to tell the
governor before he comes so that people like us can be sent on errand
out of Edo before he can come and possibly go. I am sure that is the
reason why the governor made that statement. In that wise, the governor
made that statement and he is correct and we support him in whatever he
says.
Whatever anybody is saying, they are just saying rubbish''
Tenebe also took a moment during the press conference to also tackle members of the ADC.
‘’I also want to send a message to people who call themselves
ADC in the state that they should be very careful because we only have
PDP remaining in the state and not ADC. If you want to identify with
ADC, you have to leave Edo for us. That is the message to them''
