Edo State deputy governor and the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship aspirant, Pius Odubu, on Monday, denied that he once contacted native doctors to kill his boss, Governor Adams Oshiomhole, saying the allegation was being created by people who are not comfortable with the friendly relationship existing between him and the governor.
Odubu added that the plot to destroy his cordial friendship with his boss had not ended, alleging that some people were plotting to package lies in leaflets that would be distributed round Benin, with a view to further destroy his image.
In a statement signed by Odubu’s Chief Press Secretary, Kelly Odaro, Odubu said as a practising Catholic faithful, he would not do anything unbecoming of a true Christian in the name of politics.
“God knows that I have never had any pact with any witch/native doctor to kill anyone or avenge for him and I will never condescend to that extent as long as God lives. It is against my faith.
“I will by the special Grace of God, continue to disappoint the dubious expectations of those who are bent on driving a wedge between the Comrade Governor and me. It is my nature and character to be loyal to those who God has set over me because they are His instruments.”
