Oba of Benin, Omo N’Oba N’ Edo, Ewuare II is sad and has bared his mind to President Muhammadu Buhari…

“Mr President, we as traditional rulers in Edo State, are concerned about the crisis between Oshiomhole, APC National Chairman and Governor Obaseki of Edo State, and Edo State House of Assembly.”

“If this crisis is not resolved now with immediate effect, it may jeopardise the progress of the state. On behalf of the good people of Edo State, we kindly appeal to Mr President to use your good offices to intervene and stop this crisis.”

“We pray to Almighty God to help you put in place a formidable team of men and women of proven integrity that will join you to take this nation to the next level.”

“Considering that Edo State is the only APC state in the South-South, may we crave Mr President’s indulgence to have two ministerial slots in the yet to be constituted Federal Executive Council.”
