A new video has emerged online showing Philip Shaibu, the impeached deputy governor of Edo state, mistakenly praying for Godwin Omobayo to surpass him in his political career.
This incident bears a striking resemblance to the viral video of late Governor Rotimi Akeredolu speaking highly of his former deputy, now the Executive Governor of Ondo state, Lucky Aiyedatiwa.
Following the release of the video, the incident has sparked intense discussions among political commentators, who view it as a compelling demonstration of the power of words. Local political actors have been left in a state of uncertainty and heightened caution in their choice of rhetoric during political campaigns.
