LordKO:
The governor is a poor student of conventional politics. A shrewd student of conventional politics in his stead ought to have known that in a setting, like in our country, where almost all politicians don't play politics of principle and conviction, including himself, a beneficiary of political order doesn't deny their benefactor both loyalty and gratitude at the same time. He ought to have remained grateful to comrade Osh. while withholding his loyalty immediately after he gave him reason to question his own loyalty towards him. He boxed himself, but it's a good thing as he has put a strong fight so far.

Once you play politics of expediency like that of principle and conviction, you'll get yourself boxed.




I’m quite surprised that he’s yet to defect. There’s no way he’s gonna clinch the apc ticket,it’s either he get disqualified or lose to someone else.

Oshomole is even to destroy APC in Edo State just because of his hatred for Obaseki- he fails to realize that if the court upholds the certificate thing, Obaseki is removed, IZE IYAMU - although the flag bearer in 2016 will not get the position automatically. The PDP will instead swear in his running mate if that person is still in the PDP because as of the time the judgement is delivered- Ize Iyamu is no longer a PDP member


if you want to know where I am drawing this analysis from - revisit the case of Rotimi Amaechi and Celestine Omehia in Rivers State


The PDP won the election and not Ize Iyamu as a person - the party first, hmmmm - Osho is ready to “cut his nose to spite his face”


and since he is working against the APC in Edo State, why can’t the APC leaders remove him as the national chairman ?

Very good analysis

note true Sir...if obaseki is somehow disqualified,The candidate of the PDP at the time of the said 2016 election will take it...in this case ize iyamu...not being a member of PDP now doesn't change anything...

That AMAECHI judgment you referred to no longer subsists...it has been reviewed.


If that was the case,The supreme court would have asked APC to nominate another person after David Lyon was disqualified.

Obaseki is in a fashola situation during his 2nd term and tinubu wnated to stop him bt like fashola he will triumph.
the only difference is that Fashola was more matured and diplomatic in both his approach and responses.
the governor would have waited till after he has won second term before ventilating all these.
do you Know that even Oshiomole once played along with late anenih and stabilize his government before taken his stand.
wisdom is always profitable.

Yes perhaps bt still obaseki has stood with and even helped Oshiomole to be governor. He deserves better treatment from Oshiomole to be honest. It is quite different from tinubu and Fashola history in origin.

ok. I pray things work out for him. but he ought to know that this is Nigeria and Buhari doesn't seems to be standing by anybody.
if he is unable to us court to stop this, then he may just be rubbish before the week runs out

If he doesn’t stop it, it will ultimately lead to an eventual disqualification for Apc now or later. That’s why I said Pdp is the only winner in this battle.

Obaseki will not get overwhelming votes from PDP because they have a candidate in the election

You can vote and elect Obaseki online like you did for Atiku, Saraki, Melaye etc but Obaseki knows the fire burning him. Unless he is forgiven by the owners of APC, he is gone.

Those hoping and wishing that what happened in Zamfara and Rivers state will play out in Edo are in for a big disappointment because no judge will invalidate a direct primary election. The primaries held for Rivers and Zamfara States were indirect primaries organized by different factions.

who reviewed the case ? I guess you

do not forget the party owns the ticket not the candidate- the candidate is only a flag bearer of the party - that is why on election day, you only see PDP logo on the ballot paper and not the candidate’s name- so with Ize Iyamu decamping to APC, the PDP as a matter of fairness may award the governorship to Ize Iyamu’s running mate (if he is still a member of the party) and then a new deputy governor will be selected by the PDP state delegate

THIS IS WHY THEY CALL THE CANDIDATE AS THE PARTY’s FLAG BEARER!

the reason Diri was made governor in Bayelsa is because he was still in PDP when the courts awarded the victory to PDP - if that dude had decamped to APC - he will not be not be sworn in- because it was PDP THAT WAS CHEATED IN THE ELECTION BY APC - that is how the law looks at it

when ballots are counted stand announced by INEC have you realized that they do not mention the names of the contestants? They only say the PDP CANDIDATE GOT ABC VOTES AND THE APC CANDIDATE GOT XYZ VOTES- it is only when they collate all the results they now mention the name of the candidate who won

Lastly - why do they give the state party flag to the man who wins the primaries at the convention?

It is a reminder that you do not own this ticket- it is the party that owns it

guy- do your research, I know these things don’t happen always and it can be very technical but it is a teachable scenario

not being a member of the party at the time of the judgment is meaningless...the main thing is who is flying the party ticket at the time the election was conducted.
