Nigeria Decides: Why No Candidate Comes Close To Oshiomhole's Match In Edo North Senatorial Contest

Underdogs, veterans, favourites, and other terms like these are frequently used to describe participants in certain sporting events or competitions.

There are some fighters who are viewed as a god with a small g in some clash of the titans-style Roman battles, and they are unbeatable not because the judges are on their side or the crowd is chanting their names, but rather because of their antecedents.

Troy, for instance, faced no opposition; if he challenges you, think of it as your last day on earth.He was regarded as a god with a small letter g. His rivals and their supporters are well aware that they would never stand a chance against him in a contest.

They are more than veterans and favourites; they have never lost a battle. Because they have paid their dues—for instance, the training these people go through is not intended for mortals, so how can they lose—they are supreme on the battlefield.

When it comes to the senatorial race for Edo North, Adams Oshiomhole perfectly embodies this description. Oshiomhole resembles a god with a small letter g, and this is due to the fact that he has paid his dues.

Some would say Oshiomhole was humiliated in the previous Edo gubernatorial election, and I would laugh at their ignorance; was Adams on the ballot? He was never humiliated because, despite the fact that their son Philip Shaibu was running on a joint ticket with Obaseki, he delivered Edo North to the APC.

Even the percentage of victory recorded by Obaseki was not different from what he used in emerging in his first term aided by Oshiomhole, Obaseki as a sitting Governor was never an underdog in that battle because he not only had the war chest, but he went to a party, the PDP, which had enormous structure across the state.

Therefore, Obaseki's campaign for reelection wasn't particularly impressive.  Oshiomhole still holds the title belt of undisputed champion in Edo State politics, as evidenced by his victory in his reelection bid for a second term, which he won with a score of 18 out of 18 across the LGA's.

Look at the sorry state Obaseki has left the PDP in the state. With only a few weeks until the election, they are polarised with two factional candidates. What kind of morale boost are they sending down to their party members? Nothing but treachery and distrust among themselves is being taught to them.

A look at the [/b]current senator representing Edo North Senatorial District, Sen Francis Alimikhena, who has spent eight years in the current position, is at best appalling.

[b]His representation is seen as a huge failure that has not brought a single development to Edo North despite the huge constituency allowance in his care consistently over the years.
[s][/s]
His membership in various committees has not resulted in a single job opportunity for his constituents, and his lack of interest in infrastructure development has earned him the moniker Senator Obioma, owing to his fondness for purchasing a few sewing machines for a few widows and thereby  converting them into mobile tailors.

Worse, the senator can hardly express himself and speak up for his constituencts and thus a hold back to national debates at the Red Chambers.

The senator's service is itself a step backward that the good people of Edo North would not want repeated for the following four years. It appears that his protracted stay at the NASS has been motivated by a lack of alternatives.

Without a doubt, Oshiomhole's arrival has rendered his quest for a third term impossible, because, as they say with 7up, the difference is clear.

Oshiomhole is a creative thinker, persuasive speaker, and well-known performer. In the unlikely event that Alimikhena even secures the PDP nomination, his chances of defeating Oshiomhole are one in a hundred.

Oshiomhole's performance as governor of Edo State is still unmatched to this day, and his personal touch with his people in Edo North has tactically knocked out any aspirant in the race, regardless of political party affiliation.

Granted that Oshiomole has no opposition in Edo North for that position. What a 70 years old man would be doing at NASS is what baffles me. Greedy lots everywhere. Only Uzamere is a politician with tact in the whole of Edo State.

Only ipob sympathizing idiots think otherwise
Oshomole remains a hero to us.

Shut up your rotten mouth.
Oshomole at his age is more intellectually and physically sound than Peter obi. Go to the USA senate see far more elderly people. Commenting as if the senate is a place where dey go for weight lifting

Senator Alimikhena
Hon Andrew Momodu.

You see the foolishness you folks exude with confidence. The question is, oga when will it be YOUR TURN? or your brother's, or the average young people singing their praise every election cycle? When I say education alone doesn't make one rational, this is a clear example. PO represents a paradigm shift, if you can't see it, then get off my mention. Agbaya.

This comment shows how naive you are. When it comes to presidential election majority of electorates cast their votes for a political they intend to vote for for senatorial, house of rep and president. Many are not able to differentiate, especially the illiterates and the aged. Buhari tsunami brought in many senators for APC in 2015 and 2019. Many Labour party candidates will win senatorial and house of rep seats in the southeast if Peter Obi wins presidential elections in the zone. So if Oshiomhole wins in Edo North, the probability of Tinubu winning in Edo north is very high. That is how it works and leave sentiment

Hmmmm

Oshiomonkey will still lose the election

Because he is your god. Sycophant. I understand, he is footing your pay cheque.

You just successfully exposed your hypocrisy. So politics is a turn by turn and not about competence? No wonder you folks gather to support the pandora Lieing machine notwithstanding his failures as governor
