What is PDP's problem on election day both PDP and APC members were sharing 1000 and 2000 while people were voting and the police was there. The police neither harrassed both parties so which one be the protest now? Shio!

After the international observers said that it wasn't free and fair, they(apc) are still saying that it was the most credible election..if this is the most credible election for apc then,i fear for whats going to happen in 2019..

it is unfortunate to read some comments here in support of the abnormalities orchestrated during the Edo governorship election. some even say these people are jobless et al. are you guys in tandem with what is happening to our electoral principle in Nigeria? the joy of democracy is when masses are given opportunity to elect their leaders respectively. Edo election Election is nothing but a rape on the hard earned democracy our forefathers fought for. Nigeria can only get better when we jettison party affiliations and interest.

It was a case of the best rigger won the election, regardless of the protest, it might be difficult for PDP to recover Edo State from the claws of APC, Oshomole sent all the god fathers of EDO politics to permanent retirement without benefits according to Modath grin grin

Look at ur sense, wats the difference between APC and PDP, are they not bed of the same feathers? Even PDP did worst things during the past 16yrs and senseless he goat will come here and be saying rubbish. All I know is that, Nemesis is catching up with PDP. Life is all about give and take, PDP is only getting wat they gave Nigeria back.

You are extremely silly and very uncivilised.Most of the protesters are engaged in meaningful and legal jobs and they earn more than you.

Hmm interesting. Am sure Oshomole did not factor this into their equation.
The quest to reclaim stolen mandate is on.
Lets fold our hands and watch activities unwind

This people protesting ugly die. See them..I wan puke. Is dis ao Dem look 4 Edo?

Back to d topic, d Edos comprises of many tribes e.g d Afemai, Akoko Edos, Esan, Binis isoko etc
Many Akoko Edos and Afemai that constituted higher population of Edo voted for Obaseki in large numbers but to d Binis and Isan dat voted for pdp pls go and relax..cuz ur man **Igbinedion** a benin and pdp man looted edo for 9years without extending works to other regions ( that is still fresh in d memory) he lost his candidature to oshiomole of Labour party(unknown party then)
..Oshiomole has worked for the people, is a man of d people and dat has paid off and yeild results mey una go and sleep jor.

APC is absolutely d right party for Edos till 2020 I cannot wait to see Oshiomole contest for president under APC...I will cast my vote for him even yorubas and d northerners will vote for him

The Afonja people of the Brown Roof republic and sophistication are honestly "words and opposite".
If they are truly sophisticated like they claim they are,they should know that democracy is for the people and by the people - whether it suits their political sentiments or not.
The people of Edo state want the whole world to know that the result of the just concluded governorship election in the state - as announced by INEC - is not a true reflection of the will of the people; and they have decided to do so thruogh a peaceful protest (non-violent o!).So why calling them 'jobless people'?Oh,they should sit down,fold their arms,and watch their mandate stolen away,right??Ko le werk,mehn!

You guys just assume erroneously that a particular tribe supporting apc, no its the over 6 media aides doing their job, those are their foot soldiers working for their pay.lets remove ethnic sentiments

All those of you commenting against the protest, my question for you is that, why are you pained? Are they protesting with your legs or your hands? Stupidity is when you protest because your APC candidate won an election in 2008 and it was rigged in his opponent's favour and suddenly you're against protest when your APC candidate rigged an election in his favour

That election day was a day of joy for Edo people because there were APC agents offering voters 2k to 7k each for voting Obaseki.
Everyone knows it was a festival of money sharing, people were calling relatives and friends who didn't want to vote to come and do it for money, con see na!
I watched from my window.
Edo people should endure the next 4 years, they sold it at the polling centre. If APC paying people at voting centres counts as rigging, then that election was seriously rigged.

This is the most ridiculous protest I've ever seen.
Wait o these guys are actually protesting for the election to be void?
Even the dreaded election in Rivers, Bayelsa, Ekiti weren't void, why would the edo election that was largely peaceful, free and fair be?

Hypocrites everywhere!

These guys are simply asking for the impossible!

I have always maintained that ize iyamu is not a true man of God.
I advise he faces his church business and leave this headless protests.
