Edo North Senator, Adams Oshiomhole has revealed that some Senators are concerned about the leadership style of Senate President, Godswill Akpabio.
The former Edo State Governor who spoke in a recent interview on the Mic on Podcast interview stated that Akpabio thinks he is the devil alleging that there are many agents he does not know.
He cautioned the Senate President that the 11th Senate will not be like the 10th Senate.
When asked if he had become a threat to Akpabio, the former Edo state governor stated that fellow senators are quietly complaining about the approach of Akpabio’s leadership style.
“He is paranoid about everything that has to do with me. Everybody in the Senate knows that if Sen. If Akpabio has his way, he will lock me out of the Senate because he has misled himself into thinking that I’m probably the devil he knows.
“However, there are many agents he doesn’t know, and the 11th Senate will not be the 10th Senate. This I can say, senators are groveling about his style of leadership,” he said.
Recall that the sour relationship between both former governors, who are now senators started when the Senate amended its rules ahead of the 2027 political cycle.
The rift escalated into a volatile shouting match on the floor of the Nigerian Senate when the upper chamber amended Orders 4 and 5 of its standing rules.
