Edo: Oshiomhole Finally Finds His Voice, Says ‘You Win Some, You Lose Some In Life’
After about three days of silence following the defeat of his party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), at the Edo governorship election, Adams Oshiomhole, has finally found his voice.
Oshiomhole broke his silence on the election that saw his political foe, Governor Godwin Obaseki, defeating his favoured candidate, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, in the September 19 governorship election in Edo.

According to the former APC Chairman and two time Edo governor, he has accepted the outcome of the election as God’s plan.
Oshiomhole spoke in a short video clip circulated on social media on Wednesday.
He said, “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.”
Oshiomhole said he knew that, “a lot of people will be thinking now, oh, Comrade must be down, but I am not down. When God says you are not down, you are not down and I am not down.”

He added, “And I ask our people to have faith in our country because we are not going to have another one. This is our country and we must make it great. We must strengthen democracy, we must improve on it. No matter the outcome of an election, or a particular edition of a process, have faith in God and have faith in our country.”
