Edo State deputy governor, Philip Shaibu, has apologised to the former governor of the state, Senator Adams Oshiomohole, over his choice of words in the time past as a result of political differences.
Shaibu also said his ambition to succeed Governor Godwin Obaseki, was borne out of a divine conviction to serve the state and take governance back to the people.
