A former governor of Edo state, Adams Oshiomhole, has stated that the President Muhammadu Buhari-led All Progressives Congress (APC) did not promise the electorates miracles.
Speaking to Channels TV, the former labour leader said the party has done very well so far.
Oshiomhole said,” The party has done very well, we didn’t promise miracle, there are no miracles in the life of a nation.
”What took several years to be destroyed cannot be fixed in two years. Yes, we have less than two years to go, but I believe that a couple of things have changed; in fact many things have changed.”
Tension
The former governor also praised the president for his Monday speech.
Oshiomhole said the speech doused tensions, adding a lot of the tensions are being sponsored by people who have lost out of power.
”It is those who were victims of some of the struggles of this government, whether they were benefiting from insecurity or they were merchants of free money from the NNPC and other sources, those who are being called upon to account for the things they stole.
”They have a lot of money to throw around, and given the level of unemployment in the country, it’s very easy to assemble people, give them N2000 each to protest with placards. Suddenly these people have become ethnic champions,” he added.
