Obaseki Finally Reacts To Shaibu’s Apology
Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, has embraced the apology extended by his deputy, Philip Shaibu, acknowledging that to err is human, but to forgive is divine.
The two leaders have been in a disagreement regarding Shaibu’s aspiration to lead the oil-rich state. Last week, the deputy governor sought forgiveness from his superior for their political divergences.

“I use this medium to appeal to Mr Governor, if there is anything that I don’t know that I have done, please forgive me so that we can develop our state together,” he said in Benin while addressing journalists.
A week later, the governor issued a personally signed statement, characterizing the petitions initiated by his deputy to restrain him and security agencies from commencing impeachment proceedings as needless provocations.
He further dismissed the purported impeachment as non-existent, emphasizing that he is inclined to accept the apology.
The governor stated that he has faith in the sincerity of Shaibu’s public apology and hopes it will be followed by sincere efforts to enhance conflict resolution skills.
He said, “Although these unwarranted provocations caused me severe personal discomfort, as a person of faith, I am under obligation to accept this apology because as they say, “to err is human, to forgive is divine.”
“In good faith, I trust that the public apology as expressed by the Deputy Governor is genuine and followed by contrite steps to improve his conflict resolution skills. I also enjoin the Deputy Governor to guide his proxies to act in accordance with his piety.
“It is my sincere hope and that of my other colleagues in government and all well-meaning Edo people, that these rhetorics will be put to an end forthwith to enable this administration finish strong and deliver the dividends of democracy to the greatest number of Edo people over this final twelve (12) months.”
