Adams Oshiomhole Has Ridiculed Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki And His Wife, Betsy, Over Their “Childlessness.”
The Former Edo State Governor, Now Representing Edo North In The 10th Assembly, Made The Comment In Response To Betsy Obaseki’s Statement That PDP Candidate Asue Ighodalo Is The Only Gubernatorial Candidate With A Wife.
During The PDP’s Campaign Flag-Off At Ubiaja Township Stadium In Esan South-East Local Government Area, Mrs. Obaseki Introduced Ifeyinwa Ighodalo To The Crowd, Highlighting The Significance Of Having A Woman In The Government House.
According To Him; “I Was Shocked Yesterday To See Mrs. Obaseki, The First Lady, Saying That Our Candidate Has No Wife. She Is The Most…I’m Sorry That She Has To Say That, Because Here Is A Woman Who Has No Child. Between Him And Obaseki, They Have No Child, They Are Childless,” Oshiomhole Said.
“They Are Not Even Ready To Adopt. I Mean, I Don’t Blame Anybody Who Should Not Have A Child. But People Who Have Love For Children, They Go To Motherless Homes And Adopt Children.
“They Have Not Adopted, They Are Both In Their 60s. So You Married, I Don’t Know Whether It’s A Contract Or Whatever It Is, But They Have No Child.
“Now Our Candidate Not Only Have Children, He Has Invested In The Education Of Those Children, Such That You Watch Them On Live Television, Covered By Your Media Stations, Where The First One That Spoke Is A Lawyer, The Second One Is A Medical Doctor, And They Had Dressed The Crowd In A Edo South, In A Edo Central, In Edo North, And Their Mother Was There.”
