On November 9, Patrick Obahiagbon, the chief of staff to Governor Oshiomhole, was attacked by angry protesters who pelted him with stones.
People were protesting against what they called multiple taxation and the introduction of land use charges, and insisted that the governor must address them in person to listen to their grievances.
Meanwhile, Lucky Igbinedion, a former governor of Edo state, blasted Oshiomhole, calling him the biggest thief in Benin City. He also called on his successor to explain to the people of the state how he spent the federal allocations and internal generated revenues running into trillions of naira in seven years.
