Oba of Benin, Ewuare II has made a revelation.

He said; “I have known Governor Obaseki since he I was serving as an ambassador. I cannot tell what went wrong that led to the fierce face off between him and Oshiomhole.”

“I was very sad, shocked; what I thought was going to be a smooth ride for everybody, tranquillity in the state, tranquillity in the kingdom, turned to unprecedented conflict.”

“I could not believe it that I tried to intervene several times; I even went to the President about their matter.”

“I have put in several efforts to reconcile the two politicians. I sought the intervention of President Muhammadu Buhari at some point in the matter.”

“The fight between the two elephants is already having negative effects on the State and its people.”
