Arise Television Anchor and former presidential aide, Reuben Abati, has chided the people of Edo State over the inability of Governor Monday Okpebholo to pronounce the acronym, GCFR.
Speaking during Arise Television’s ‘Morning Show’ on Wednesday, Abati said the people of Edo State had the opportunity to choose a highly educated man but decided to choose Okpebholo.
He said Edo people should live with their choice.
He was reacting as Governor Okpebholo stumbled in pronouncing the ‘GCFR’ suffix added to President Bola Tinubu’s name.
“Like Yoruba people would say, it is finished. Edo people had the chance to choose a highly educated man who was very intelligent. They did not want him. But they chose Monday Okpebholo.
“Simple series that they teach children in school Okpebholo could not pronounce. GCFR becomes DSS, GSM, GSSM,” Abati said.
