Let me tell you a simple story about two people. One day, a man named Godswill sat in a big meeting and talked about two other men. One of them, named Godwin, was the governor of Edo State. Godswill said Godwin was not being nice to another man, Adams, who once helped Godwin.
Here’s what happened. Godswill said, “The man (Godwin) you helped become the boss is now not being nice to you and is also not respecting democracy.”
Adams replied, “Just so you know, I didn’t make him the boss; he was chosen by the people. But, I helped him, just like you helped your friend, Governor Udom.”
So, a few years back in 2016, Adams really wanted Godwin to be the leader, even when other people wanted someone else. The other people wanted Pius or another friend to be the leader instead of Godwin.
Adams’ support helped Godwin beat another man named Pastor Osagie, who was representing a different team called the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
Fast forward two years after Godwin became the leader, the team members were sad because Godwin didn’t include them in making decisions. They told Adams about this, who tried to fix the issues, but Godwin said he didn’t want anyone, including Adams, telling him what to do anymore.
This disagreement started a big fight between Godwin and Adams, much like when friends argue over a game on the playground.
Later on, just before the next big election in 2024, Godwin tried to be friends with Adams again because he wanted Adams to like the person Godwin wanted to win. Unfortunately, Godwin’s friend Asue lost the election.
This story shows how friendships can change, especially in politics, where people want to make big decisions. Like when friends at school sometimes disagree over who gets to play on the swings first.
