This can best be described as the most shocking remark ever made by a
State Governor to a poor woman. The heart of a man who can say such

This POST shows Governor Adams Oshiomhole ostensibly leading
officials of the state to sanitize the city of Benin, the Edo State

roadside hawker. The poor widow knelt before the governor, a former labour leader, begging for her little means of livelihood to be saved. She pleaded that she’s a widow. But her pleas fell on the governor’s deaf ear. In what could be
regarded as the most unkind cut of all, the governor said the widowed
woman should “go and die”! Afterwards he stood for some seconds looking indifferently on how the
officials took the women’s belongings away, and he left the scene of
the drama. The huge crowd which witnessed all these was too shocked to say, or to do anything…
