Earl Osaro Onaiwu, the founding Director General of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governors Forum has described a controversial Edo-born businessman, Captain Idahosa Wells Okunbo as a brazen, double-faced and ruthless deceiver.

Onaiwu's strong remark is coming on the heels of an address made by the businessman to the people of Edo State.

In the video address which was shared online, Okunbo who is a supporter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate in the September 19, 2020 governorship election, Osagie Ize-Iyamu enjoined the people of Edo State to shun violence in the said election.

But in a strong rebuttal, Onaiwu described Okunbo's address as a "deft move of an hardened beguiler", apparently to cover his tracks. He wondered why an unabashedly partisan man who has been caught pants down funding and arming cultists and political thugs to cause chaos all over Edo state would now turn around to be sermonising Edo people to eschew violence.

Onaiwu stated that the Edo businessman cannot extricate himself from the violence that erupted at Oba's palace during the visit of PDP's delegation to the royal palace. He further alleged that Capt. Hosa is also heavily fingered in instigating the forceful takeover of the State House of Assembly, albeit a failed adventure.

The former Governors Forum boss therefore called on discerning Edo residents not to pay any attention to Okunbo's address as it is a quest to use reverse psychology to shortchange them.

He said Capt. Hosa does not even possess the locus to address Edo people in the first place as he is just a stakeholder in APC and not the generality of Edo state.

Hmmm...

Everyone has issues with Everyone

It is well
