\nGovernor of Edo State, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has accepted the public apology tendered by the State Deputy Governor Mr. Philip Shaibu, noting that as a person of faith, he was under obligation to accept the remorse shown.<\/p>\n

In a letter titled, \u201cRe: Public Apology By The Edo State Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu,\u201d the governor said in good faith, he trusts that the public apology as expressed by Shaibu is genuine and followed by contrite steps to improve his conflict resolution skills.<\/p>\n

The letter reads, \u201cI have noted the public apology made by the Deputy Governor of Edo State, His Excellency, Comrade Philip Shaibu. This apology followed an aberrant behaviour that contradicts what the people of Edo State stand for.<\/p>\n

\u201cTo name a few, the Deputy Governor needlessly filed unfounded petitions in the Nigerian courts restraining me, the State House of Assembly and Security agencies from a non-existent impeachment process, followed by repeated breaches of protocol; unwarranted and unprovoked attacks in the media on my person and the State Government. The media frenzy as a result of the above and more, provided an impression of crises that has been precarious and distasteful to Edo people in the State and across the world.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlthough 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, \u201cto err is human, to forgive is divine.\u201d<\/p>\n

Obaseki further noted, \u201cIn 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.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt 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 to finish strong and deliver the dividends of democracy to the greatest number of Edo people over this final twelve\u00a0 months.\u201d<\/p>\n

PointblankNews.com reports that embattled Shaibu had been seeking forgiveness from Obaseki since their once cordial relationship turned frosty a couple of weeks ago.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n
