SS & SE are one family, similar identity - religion, food, skin type, dress code, politics,
inter-marriages and geography. Edo state must realign politically with its regional sisters.
.
Buhari is a disgusting tribal and religious bigot.and APC has nothing in stock for SS and SE.

Enough of Oshiomole's gangsterism and godfatherism. Such nonsense only work in Lagos (not SS & SE)
The APC Chairman should learn from Orji Kalu/Theodore Orji, Amaechi/Wike, Akpabio/Udom, Okorocha/Uche Nwosu

daddytime:
Lol..politics yeye sha...

I don't want to be that short black man with a yellow pawpaw wife right now..

My heart oo

blackpanda:
He is just trying to send message to oshiomole and APC in Edo. Lol

frugal:
The next logical thing to do would be to decamp to the pdp, pick ize-iyamu as a running mate, then coast to victory.

Ultimatezlant:
it won't happen sha, e just want to play mind games.

Its the same way he inaugurated hoa.


Naturally obaseki is just trying to get every other block on his side since he doesn't have agbero and a section of his party.


He has the people, he has some APC group and PDP, las las people would sympathize with his plight

Ultimatezlant:
you see you know nothing cos the two are from same Edo south.

Obaseki defecting would create chaos in the state, he isn't ready for that.

He just wants to get every block

Indispensable85:


Obaseki will remain in Apc and get a second term.In due time everyone will be on the same page to return him. The little shaking has done some jobs already. He now calls regular meetings of the party,it wasn't the case before,the water storm he abandoned has kicked off across the state,the abandoned central hospital has commenced operation and he has promised to realease board appointments by next week. He has done well in my opinion but he has to improve on his interpersonal skills.

SoNature:


Why is it difficult for everyone on Nairaland to spell OSHIOMHOLE?

frugal:

I understand. But there has to be some compromises here. Ize-iyamu won't give up his ambition without a solid ROI. Being a deputy gets him closer to being the governor in the next four years.

*Modified
He would if apc schemes him out. He's trying to have a plan B if it goes that way.

The

Ultimatezlant:
you have said it all and you really know politics.

He would get his ticket, I don't see him defecting, that is the major reason oshomole hasn't spoken out against him or attack him like he normally would.

Oshomole didn't expect he won't be his stooge so he difinetely won't be happy but Adams knows las las obaseki would prevail.

internationalman:
My state is blessed with ugly governors...

Indispensable85:


Oshiomhole is an intelligent politician,he knows obaseki has the support of the people,he won't deny him a second term ticket. But he'll use proxies to push him to get certain things done.

Ultimatezlant:
Ize iyamu has contested for governor and I don't see him stooping for deputy seat.

Obaseki isn't decamping to PDP just know that, he only trying to appeal to different front as he can becos if you have a section of party against you, you need the people and other political party to have a soft landing for you if not na crashing

zolajpower:

The person u quoted is right , oshiomole 's silence should not be taking with a pinch of salt. He is waiting for the primary election come next year. And him obaseki doesn't want to leave any stone unturned . Reason why he's fraternising with the opposition party . In the last two to three years of his adminstration have u ever heard the opposition castigated or criticized him ? Just watch as the drama unfolds

frugal:

This is the same thing I wrote to you in my last reply na. You just rephrased it.

Also, there's nothing wrong in settling for a lower position if its going to get you closer to your main goal. It doesn't even matter if he ran for a governorship position in the past and failed. I would only agree with you if he had been a one time governor and lost re-election. Only then would the post of a deputy be beneath him.

Otuegbe:
Edo men dey fine well well

tesppidd:
Yeso.

Like Chris Oyakilome, Osaze Odemwinge and Frank Edoho.

Ultimatezlant:
lol, you don't know politics, why has obaseki not decamped since to PDP if he was so sure.

Truth is if obaseki decamps to PDP today he would win but he himself knows what oshomole did for him that made him governor.

Oshomole with federal might would shortchange obaseki when he goes to PDP (the general election and nass election should tell you Edo election na small thing to Adams).


Obaseki to PDP would only cos chaos and embolden his enemies to go full scale.


The APC state chairman support obaseki cos he knows its only personal issue Adams has with him and not a decamping issue.


PDP is only silent becos its natural their enemy is oshomole and to see an independent governor is OK with them, obaseki operates a peace for all system not the way oshomole tenure was to pdp

Oblang:


Yes like this..

IamSoProlific:
This Peter Obi man sha, ever since the defeat he has been shining teeth all over the place like an under-smoke Christmas goat, he doesn't even care. Maybe because those money wasted on campaigns wasn't his.

You hardly see Atiku carelessly not even to think of shining teeth in merriment.

I just hope Atiku dumps his a$s come 2023.

chozzy:



Used to think Frank was from Akwa Ibom/Cross River

Aurielfinizu:


So he should die or drink sniper cos he lost election.. what of Saraki?
These are mature men who don't get moved by things of the world..

Ultimatezlant:
you sabi the matter, in fact oshomole is always the first to shout party supremacy, he would deny amosun, ndume etc.

But he still hasn't said a thing against obaseki which tells you something, even ojezua as state chairman is backing obaseki becos he knows eventually Adams would free obaseki las las.

If oshomole denies obaseki ticket he himself would be creating enemy with Edo people particularly Edo south people who sees obaseki is been victimized for working for them.

It would make Adams an hated politician that even rigging can't help, he would have killed his political career in the future when he can't command his state politically.
