Oshiomole cost APC edo state by ousting obaseki from the party, if obaseki had been given the apc ticket the state would have still belonged to the party.

By the evening of Sunday, September 20, 2020, the ballots count had ended, and the electoral umpire, Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC), wasted no time in announcing the result. According to INEC, Godwin Obaseki, the incumbent governor, polled 307,955 votes to beat his closest rival, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, who got 223,619 votes.

This outcome renewed the mandate of Obaseki for the next four years and expectedly, triggered varying reactions in Edo state and across the country. Just like the election, celebrations and criticisms are dependent on the side of the divides, causing sentiments and emotions to flow freely.

What just happened? That question rang like a bell in the mind of political observers, many of who least expected the outcome of the poll. While Obaseki secured a fresh term as Edo governor, something big had happened, and in the process, altered the political configuration of Edo state.

It was not unexpected, but the timing and how it happened is what must have caused a sensation. The re-election of Obaseki pointed to one thing– and that is the depletion of Oshiomole’s relevance in the scheme of things in the state.

Before that election, Oshiomole was seen as the ‘kingmaker’, who dictate the political direction of Edo state, and without his blessing and backing, becoming a governor or holding any other political office in the state, would be a herculean task. So, when he withdrew support for Obaseki and queued behind Ize-Iyamu, some presumed it was game over and that the outcome would produce a new governor for the state.

But that didn’t happen, and without much prompting, the Edo electorates put a final seal on the political fortune of Oshiomole and left him with nothing. Edo is not Lagos sentiment pushed Oshiomole to the brink, and he could not withstand the defiance of a multitude of electorates, who resoundingly opted for freedom. Before that election, Oshiomole’s political fortune had dwindled, and winning Edo state for Ize-Iyamu could have offered a reprieve, but that didn’t happen.

Well, Oshiomole has himself to blame for the outcome he got. The signs were there for some time now, but typical of people oblivious to the ephemeral nature of power, Oshiomole failed to read the mood of things properly, or perhaps, as some people have insinuated, allowed himself to be pushed to the extent that he blew everything away. Yes, Oshiomole is left empty, just like the first time he joined politics.

Whether in his home state or elsewhere, Oshiomole’s influence has nosedived significantly, and the huge goodwill he enjoyed over the years, seemed fast gone. The problem, as several events in the past have shown, is his high-handedness and insatiable lust for control, most of the time, for personal benefits and to massage his ego.

All these were enough motivation for resistance, and before you know it, Oshiomole turned an aging fighter who has lost touch but keeps flailing away while his opponents easily throw punches. This is evident in the manner in which he was unceremoniously sent packing as the National Chairman of APC, and with the outcome of the Edo governorship election, he could no longer be a godfather.

If there was any good news in how things turned out for Oshiomole, it would be the valuable lesson on the transient nature of power and how no human should play ‘god’ in the face of other people. That was the impression that the disqualification of Obaseki in the APC’s primary suggested, and the subsequent moves from Oshiomole, including that of a former governor of Lagos State, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, who went as far as to canvass against the governor’s re-election in a viral video, gave to the public.

As things now look, Edo did not only decide who govern them for the next four years, they made an even important choice– and that is saying no to godfatherism. In 2016, Oshiomole was able to maneuver his way and get the electorates to agree to his choice, but as the just concluded governorship election showed, they resoundingly say no this time, leaving the former governor empty handed. A sad turn for him!

WHAT DO YOU EXPECT FROM AN AGBERO AND A MOTOR PARK TOUT?

Education matters in life.

Lack of Education is part of Oshiomole 's problem.

Yes, he blew his opportunity as a political leader away.

Not just in Edo state but across Nigeria.

Britain, the EU and the United States and a host of foreign countries will be disappointed with Oshiomole and his mannerism, the political scripts he acted in Edo state and across several states of Nigeria while he was Chairman of the Apc.

OSHIOMOLE CAUSED THE APC TO SUFFER VARIOUS POLITICAL SET BACK AND HE WENT AS FAR AS DIVIDING THE APC.

Consequently, Buhari had to handover the remainant of what was left of the party to his kinsmen led by the governor of Yobe state, Mai Mala Buni not minding the fact that governor Buni is preoccupied with more official duty as governor of a troubled state which is under boko haram siege.

At a particular point Professor Itse Sagay cautioned Oshiomole about his COMBATANT BEHAVIOUR AND TROUBLESOME TANTRUM.

Oshiomole refused to give up his style of running the APC political machineries.

Oshiomole learnt nothing from Dr. Samuel Osaigbovo Ogbemudia.

He learnt nothing from Ambrose Alli

He learnt nothing from Chief John Odigie Oyegun

He learnt nothing from Lucky Igbenedion.

He was so confident that he will make Governor Godwin Obaseki see hell.

But what is the result today?

Oshiomole has been bitterly humiliated at the election polls.

The Godfatherism himself and Tinubu were planning to use SLEDGEHAMMER to institute in Edo state has crumbled.

Edo people told Tinubu in one strong word "EDO STATE IS NOT LAGOS"

The Godfatherism culture Tinubu cultivated in Lagos state for many years can not work in a place like Edo state.

Edo people spell out that guidelines on the election day through their votes for Governor Godwin Obaseki and his Deputy, Comrade Phillip Shaibu.

IT IS HIGH TIME THE GOOD PEOPLE OF LAGOS STATE ASK THEMSELVES THIS LITTLE QUESTION.

Is it worthwhile allowing Lagos democracy to be selfishly hijacked by one man who call himself TINUBU aka JAGBAN?

Moral lesson, a win-win situation is far better for everyone than a win-loose situation. Compromise doesn't mean weakness. It's signifies strength and openness

Nice post.

Edo North Senator comes to mind.


Even though APC is dead already IMO,

If somehow and someway someone in the Tinibu and Oshiomole camp of the APC becomes President in 2023,

Oshiomole will surely bounce back with thunder.
