Senator Oshiomhole, representing Edo North senatorial district, offered his sincere apologies in a goodwill message to Igbinedion during his 90th birthday celebration held on Saturday, September 14, in Benin, the Edo State capital.
In his speech, Oshiomhole acknowledged the support he received from Igbinedion during his governorship elections, stating that he would not have won without the elder statesman’s backing in 2008 and 2016.
According to reports, Oshiomhole, who was to take over from Lucky, the eldest son of Igbinedion, who was governor between 1999 and 2007, was defeated by Prof Oserheimen Osunbor, a former senator.
After a year of legal battles, Oshiomhole, running under the platform of the Action Congress (AC), was declared the winner.
Pa Igbinedion, who had a clash with Osunbor, was said to have supported Oshiomhole to win the election. However, Oshiomhole fell out with the Igbinedion family during his tenure as governor, accusing them of extorting the people of Benin.
Years later, in his goodwill message to Igbinedion on his 90th birthday, Oshiomhole pleaded for forgiveness.
He said,
“You brought together people from all parts of the country; north, south, east, and west and across political and religious divides.
I want to publicly acknowledge your support for me in 2007 and 2008, without which I might never have become the governor of Edo state.
As a Catholic, I want to confess that I might have done some things I shouldn’t have done as governor.
At 90, it is only right that I ask for your forgiveness for any of my actions that may have irritated you.
I have always looked for one opportunity to say to the Esama of the universe that I am sorry for any of the things that I said knowingly or unknowingly or any of the things that I did that a son should never have done to a father.
On your 90th birthday, I ask for your forgiveness, and I pray that you grant it.
