The Edo chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has urged the State House of Assembly to immediately commence impeachment proceedings on Governor Godwin Obaseki, for allegedly threatening to burn down the country.
The State chairman of the party, Emperor Jarret Tenebe, said this in a statement in reaction to a video of the Governor speaking on the shooting incident that led to the death on Inspector Akor Onuh, the police orderly of Senator Monday Okpebholo last Thursday.
The is even as he linked incessant deaths occasioned by alleged inter-cult fights to state-sponsored extra judicial killings.
Tenebe described the viral video as a “melodrama wherein the Edo State Governor Mr. Godwin Obaseki gloated like a villain in a video, threatening to burn down Nigeria, if the murderers of Inspectors Akor Onuh at the Benin City Airport are arrested by the Police.”
The Edo APC chairman likened the Governor’s alleged violent threat to Nigeria and Nigerians as a descent into madness that must quickly be tamed to avoid anarchy and breakdown of law and order in Edo and Nigeria.
