EDO: Oshiomhole to detractors: I’m not down, I feel good

FORMER national chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Adams Oshiomhole, on Wednesday night said he was hale and hearty.

The former labour leader said contrary to the expectation of his detractors, he was not down with the shame of defeat his candidate suffered in the Saturday’s governorship election in Edo State.

Speaking for the first time on the outcome of the election, which his party lost to the People’s Democratic Party, Oshiomhole said that losing was also part of life.

In a video recorded in his personal gymnasium, the former governor of Edo State was philosophical as he posited that life was about winning some and losing some.

“In life, you work hard and leave God for the outcome. You do your best and trust God to bless your efforts. I feel good, I feel strong, thank God. In life, you win some and you lose some but life goes on,” he said

Oshiomhole added that he was aware that “a lot of people will be thinking now, ‘oh, Comrade must be down’. But I’m not down. When God says you are not down, you are not down and I am not down.”
