Adams Oshiomhole, the former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has confessed that the bond between him and the governor of Edo state is stronger than mere friendship.
The Punch reported that the ex-governor’s confession is coming in about two years after he clashed with his political godson during the electioneering for his second term ticket.

The rift made Obaseki leave the APC for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), despite efforts by some stakeholders to resolve the differences.
The governor later sought re-election under the umbrella party, where he defeated the anointed candidate of Oshiomhole and the candidate of the APC governorship flagbearer, Osagie Ize-Iyamu.
