Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State is
not receiving any treatment abroad for alleged
internal injuries he sustained when his official
car was involved in an accident last week, the
state Commissioner for Information and
Orientation, Mr. Louis Odion said yesterday. He
was responding to the confusion and tension in
the state over the health of the governor, who
is yet to make any public appearance since the
accident.
Odion said the governor was healthy, hale and
hearty and would preside over the weekly state
cabinet meeting that will hold at the
Government House tomorrow.
The commissioner said he met Oshiomhole
abroad before returning to the country during
the week, stressing that the governor should
have been back from his journey by the
weekend.
He also blamed rumors of the governor’s ill-
health on detractors, who he said were bent on
creating confusion with aim of destabilizing the
government.
“Quote me that I told you the governor is hale
and hearty. He is fine. He did not sustain any
injury as his enemies are claiming and we
could not have lied that he did not sustain any
injury if he actually sustained any injury. The
rumour is the handiwork of those that want
him to die.
“I also travelled abroad and just returned to
the country. I met him and spoke with him. He
is fine. Right now, I cannot be so certain to tell
you he is back into the country because I am
not in town yet. But he will be in office to
preside over the cabinet meeting on Monday”,
Odion said.
It would be recalled that a J5 Peugeot bus
reportedly loaded with plantain and tomatoes
rammed into the governor’s official car owing
to brake failure on Saturday, 28th December,
2013.
