The Deputy Governor of Edo State, Dennis Idahosa, has refuted claims of nepotism and state capture regarding the recent appointment of Cyril Oshiomhole, the son of former governor Adams Oshiomhole, as the state’s Commissioner for Health.
Speaking on Channels Television on Wednesday, Idahosa disclosed that the former governor actually opposed his son’s nomination.
“This position has nothing to do with Adams Oshiomhole. In fact, Adams opposed it. He was against the nomination because of the vision the governor has for the people of Edo State. The governor made the decision to appoint Cyril based on competence, not because of his father,” Idahosa explained.
Idahosa further emphasized that Cyril Oshiomhole is a highly qualified medical professional, with extensive education and training both in Nigeria and the United States. He assured that the appointment was purely merit-based.
“Senator Adams Oshiomhole is a Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, and his son, like any other individual, has his own destiny. Cyril is a seasoned medical doctor. He studied in Nigeria and went on to further his studies in the United States. He is fully qualified to be in the cabinet,” Idahosa continued.
He concluded by asserting that Cyril’s competence, rather than his family ties, was the determining factor in his selection as the Commissioner for Health. “The fact that he is Oshiomhole’s son does not disqualify him from holding a position he is competent to manage. He will serve as Commissioner for Health based on merit.”
