Speaking at the Edo Central PDP governorship flag off at Okpujie Primary School, Uromi, the Edo State-born politician alleged that Oshiomole was plotting to obliterate the Esan nation ahead of the September governorship election in the state.
The former PDP BoT Chairman, however, vowed that the Esan people would resist the alleged plot and vote out the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the coming election.
“Today, there is no water Esanland. I pleaded with the president then to give us water, and he awarded a contract of N1.2 billion for Ugbalo Waterworks. Oshiomhole was asked to pay the counterpart fund of about N300 million. Oshiomhole, up till today has refused to provide the money. That is why the water scheme has not been completed. He does not want us (Esans) to have water.
“Esan race is being extinguished by Oshiomhole, but we will not allow it; we will resist it,” he said.
