Obasanjo's days is numbered and he know's that.

Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by uluocha: 7:19pm On Apr 16, 2007
Why do we need 800 policemen to arrest a single armless civilian. This is intimidation at its highest. Where are we going in this nation. God bless Nigeria
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by 9ja4eva: 7:26pm On Apr 16, 2007
They are scared of him.The policemen themselves are silly.They dont want to get out of the curse of bribe shey?Let dem continue worshipping Obj na dem sabi.

Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by stanech: 7:27pm On Apr 16, 2007
In my own view he should be arrested. For leading the violent protest that destroyed properties worth millions of Naira.

I think he should be arrested

here we go again, a politician that is instigating violence in the state was arrested and people are so quick to blame OBJ. did OBJ tell this politicians to engage in violence activity or to recruit thugs? people lets be careful how we judge people.

Thank you.

OBJ is not perfect. But the way people pass out judgement in this country is very surprising,  Na wah oh

He should wait to channel his case to the court politics is not NLC the Nigerian Labour Congress?

How do you know he was rubbed?  was he an INEC official? was he or you counting the election results?  this act is stupid and foolish. people should take their looses and coconced with dignity and stop promoting violent.  we all can't win
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by uluocha: 7:38pm On Apr 16, 2007
Please can someone tell Adams Oshiomole that he no more NLC president, he can be dumped and forgotten in jail and nobody would stand for he defence. This is Nigeria were human rights are not respected, if u have no immunity, your are finished in this country

I don't like it when people act naive just because they hope to prove some point. We both know that in a free and fair election, there is no way Oshiomhole is going to lose to anyone in Edo state but let's keep acting naive and hiding the truth, because we think OBJ is a demi-god or something.

Uluocha If he oshiomole is saying PDP is not a good government and that he is an example of a good leader why did he not wait to take his grieviance to the court



crazykid:

Am telling you the truth, if the military plans a coup and it succeeds, I would be the happiest person on earth.
Because our so-called democracy has ruined the country.


Inviting the military? This is a big joke

Donzman you are assuming that Oshiomole won the election you are not so sure but I can boldly tell you that it is only in Oredo and Ikpoba-Okha local government areas of the state that there is a protest.

Every other parts of the state including Edo north (Oshiomole's home town) is Calm
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by donmayor(m): 7:56pm On Apr 16, 2007
Obasanjo is a shame. [s]His level of thinking compares so well with the animals in his farm.[/s] The rate at which he is going, he is going to end up destroying what he built in 8 years. it's only a fool that would say elections in many states were not rigged from the results released and the manner it was released.
Adams Oshiomole was rightly arrested for trying to instigate a riot but his arrest won't solve the issue on ground. Instigating a riot was the best option also available to Oshiomole.
God help Nigeria and prevent us from self destructing. May we never become another Darfur or Liberia

If oshiomole thinks that disturbing the peace of the state is the only way to prove he won the elections then he is not worthy to lead Edo state. There are better ways to do that

In which civilised society has viloence ever solved anything, If that is what Oshiomole has resorted to, I am afraid he is loosing my respect
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by CrazyMan(m): 8:01pm On Apr 16, 2007
God forbid that Nigeria would become like dafur.
Everyone that has violence at the back of his mind, nemesis would catch up with him be it the president himself.
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by donmayor(m): 8:01pm On Apr 16, 2007

I am not saying that rigging is good that's if there ever was a rigging.  All I am saying is that there are other ways

donmayor:

If his aim is to serve the people, then it is worth waiting for. What he has done is an example of "two wrongs can't make a right"
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by donmayor(m): 8:17pm On Apr 16, 2007
If his mandate was really stolen, it is the people that are meant to rise up and defend it and thats what he is trying to do. Not that it is right but u shuld know where he is comin form
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by omon(m): 8:20pm On Apr 16, 2007
What proof does Oshiomole has to show that he won?

He should have sent a message to his soppurters to remain calm and go about thier normal duties. Instead he is leading a violent protest he may have to be in jail for sometime so that he will know the difference between NLC and politics.
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by frenchman(m): 8:31pm On Apr 16, 2007
I think many Nigerians in the diaspora have lost touch with what is on round in Nigeria. Rigging is something that is opened, and the evidence is not far fetched. For example,When the incumbent deputy gov hijaked voting materials in Ondo state, and even INEC confirmed this. I am sure some people will still be asking for evidence of rigging. Gosh!!

stanech just shut that mouth of urs ebe like say u sef follow join for the rigging process abe make una leave the guy alone let him defend his mandate.

it is only by false the FG will ever succumb to our idea so let him use it. and take note nigeria is not zimbabwe
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by donmayor(m): 8:43pm On Apr 16, 2007
Read this:
Rivers State: 2.1 million people was said to have voted, even in the face of violence , absence of electoral materials and officials in most part of the state. PDP claimed they won the state with 1.8 million votes. It is more that all the votes in Lagos State, with four million voters registered (some of the highest in the country), where there was relative peace on election day. 99% voters voted in Rivers State, if we go by this calculations.

Ekiti State: opposition AC won 14 seats in the house of assembly, ANPP won 3 seats, NDP 1 and PDP 6 seats, yet PDP won the gubernatorial elections.

Osun State: Accused murderer of Chief Bola Ige, Senator Omisore was caught with ballot boxes in Ilesha, miles away from his ward.

And you say Oshiomole should siddon look.
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by Imani(f): 8:47pm On Apr 16, 2007
Only in Nigeria!   angry


God help that country.


I still dont understand why we like confusion so much.


Did any state actually get a governor that the people rather than PDP actually want?
Re: Adams Oshiomole Arrested In Benin by omon(m): 8:48pm On Apr 16, 2007
I thought the deputy gov who misbehaved in Ondo was arrested,
