Tinubu's plans are really working, first he appointed muslim Adamu Aliyu Oshiomhole as governor, now we have Hon Shaibu, Hon Abdulrasaq etc.
You now have to be a muslim to be anybody in Edo state yet we're predominantly a Christian state, how did this happen?



We're slowly being Islamized and in future I bet our Oba would be given the title >Emir of Benin.
