@kosovo,
     U are just a mediocre,  u know nothing about edostate.Even if u are base in edo state maybe in a place like auchi or esako.So come stay n benin and see things.U suck man,

mess

*******************

People have every right to question their elected officals. It took almost ten years of mismanagent between Lucky and Osunbor to destroy Edo state. The expectations of Oshiomole have to be realistic. His budget was only approved last month after being held up by the majority PDP in the state assembly. The Oba of Benin had to appeal before the budget was adopted.

Indiscriminate awards of contract without proper planning or oversight will yield the same misery of the past.

The present condition of Edo state has everything to do with Lucky. Lagos state was not as backward as Edo when Fashola took over. The internal resources are not comparable. I lived in Midwest state from 1970 to 1980 and I still have business and family interests in Benin.

It is not cowardice of the past but rather it is still present today. Do you think the common man is currently protesting against Oshiomole today. Most of the attacks are from political opponents fighting for the spoils of power. The doctors are upset becau


GOOD POINTS!

WHAT COULD HE HAVE DONE WITHOUT THE BUDGET BEING APPROVED?
I THINK THE GUY NEEDS SOME TIME.

Of course we'll wait and see but tell him to stop making so much noise. He is always in the news  

I full ground my broda o , me just dey take back seat they observe most times. How u dey nah and how china dey treat u 

*shakes head*

do you think Oshiomhole knows where to start from? Edo state has been battered by numerous regimes; not only Lucky or Osunbor. What do think of Oyegun, and a host of military administrators? the last time Edo had good governance was the regime of Ogbemudia (then it was still Bendel State). Today the same Ogbemudia is one of those destroying the same state he pupportedly built then. what a shame! i pity poor oshiomhole, because he doesnt know where to begin from. I think he needs time to plan properly, it is too early to start judging. let's watch and see what happens after one year in office
May God help him!

Ify how are you?

how do you mean? i dont seem to understand your idiomatic expression. am good 2

@Kobojunkie
shebi Obama has rescusitated America in his few months as president? why would people know the truth and try to hide it because of bad belle they have against someone. what are you expecting Oshiomhole to produce to you in few months. you are talking of Obama as if he has turned America to something else since January - he is still planning. Are you educated sir? did you learn problem solving? have you heard of srategic planning before? do you want Oshiomhole to use his personal funds for Edo state projects? Or you would support the state projects with your own hard earned money? The State House only approved budject last week and you are here talking about Obama? Is Oshiomhole Obama? Is Edo State United States? If yes. then bring Obama to Edo State without the necessary co-operation from the House of Assembly. He would be handicapped and able to execute nothing. However, let's watch and see what happens henceforth, since he has gotten approval for budject now 

You seriously believe I am the one here with bad reasoning? May I suggest you think again? Definitely Obama has not RESCUSITATED AMERICA and I do not believe he can do that either since the American economy is not controlled by the government. If you knew that, you would have noticed the error in your statement there. The president has however done so much since he took office. He has addressed most all of the promises he made during his campaign. I did not even vote for him and still am not a fan of his but I can definitely tell you this because it is the truth.



Now passing off all opposition as simply bad belle is signs that you are not yourself being honest. I am not sure where you are or what company you work for but can you tell me for a fact that you can get a job with a reputable company today, sit back for 30 days without some actual work done within that period?

If you read my thread well, you will see that you are proving my point on why the Obama example is not always a good idea. I will try this another way so you can maybe better understand why your reasoning there remains flawed.  Are you saying Fashola waited till budget was approved before he made public his plans? YES OR NO. What about contracts with budget already approved by the ex administration? Do you mean he could not have worked on ensuring even those were properly applied or investigated even as he waited for the new budget to be approved?

I say you go back, read my post and then investigate how government works again. Just because we have a new governor does not mean it is not work as usual. Do you think all other state workers sit at stand still until the new budget is approved when a new governor comes in?

So you do admit that the same state workers ( governor included) has been collecting salary for the past 6 months? What work has he done in that same amount of time to show for the money he has been collecting as pay during the same period? Can you please provide a concise answer to the questions?



So in essence you are saying Yar adua is unable to successfully manage Nigeria simply because Nigerians are not united behind him? Are you willing to apply the same excuses you so willingly apply to this man to Yar adua himself? YES OR NO?

Sigh!!! And herein lies the difference; something I think we seriously need to change. Over here, we require that from day one, our politicians start to prove to their worth to us, not after one year in office. If you remember well, we did that whole bit on not crucifying yar adua until after one year and he has been there for 2 years, collecting salary and benefits pay,  yet he has still to show us he is worth anything to us. Fashola on the other hand, came in to the most difficult and most populated state in that country. Within the first couple of weeks, he was able to prove that he was about action and not just for words.  You say you are not willing to crucify Oshiomole until after 1 year in power, fine!! I on the other day choose to see this as a business venture and would demand my employees start proving their worth from the first day. It has been 6 months—during which time oshiomole has been collecting his pay and his benefits. What has he got to show for the money we have spent on his so far? Notice this is not asking for miracles. Just what portion of the job he was hired to do. . . his responsibilities … can he boast of having taken care of so far? If we evaluated his time in office so far, can we say he has passed or are we only able to come back with excuses and nothing substantial for 6 months paid period? Have you ever personally worked at any company where you do nothing for 6 months and your Oga pays you for doing just that?



Why these pathetic attempts to discredit those who question your man now?

Oh boy!!! Still more excuses. I ask you again, what is the government doing to ensure these contracts are completed and done right within the expected period? Telling them this and that is nothing different from what we know of doing so well in that country to date, unless you are trying to tell me that Oshiomole is no different from his predecessor when it comes to managing state projects.

No need to get too hot about this,  An attempt was made on his life. but he didn’t go about crying about it period! If you are not from Edo State and don’t know it's history, then you might wanna take some time to find out,  Oshiomole will remove Edo Sate from its shackles of Bondage and it's not going to happen over night,  Give him 1-2yrs before judging him,  Again you have to know where the State is coming from before wanting over night success,  If he is able to achieve half of Fashola’s success, I will applaud him, because truth be told, they’ve totally destroyed the state. You have to be strong, courageous and have a thick skin to move that State forward cause there are obstacles almost everywhere you turn, some from people that are supposed to be moving the state forward. Obama has money to work, he has patriotic, people, America is over 200yrs, and most things on the ground are already working,   If Obama enter Benin, dude go run cos im no go sabi where to start from. I am not making excuses for Oshiomole, but if u know the history of Edo Sate then,

The Comrade Governor will do fine, by next year we will visit this topic again, meanwhile no need for fights/insults as if he has been there for almost 4yrs

I have one more thing to add, those who are using Lagos state and fashola as an example for Edo state and Oshomole should be realistic and stop being bias. how do you expect Edo state to be like lagos?? even in 10 years, it's not possible.  THERE IS NO ONE BRIDGE IN EDO STATE RIGHT FROM IT EXISTENCE, so you expect Oshomole to just turn Benin into an overnight Lagos state,

Now, let me come to why Edo state can never be like Lagos state for at least 15 years,

Revenue allocation is never balance, Lagos's revenue tripples the one in Edo state

Investment opportunities in Lagos is 10 times greater than what we have in edo state

Human resources is 10 times greater than what we have in edo state

Manpower is 10 times greater than Edo state


Federal allocation is 4 times greater than Lagos state

the stage lagos state was at before Fashola got in is 15 times better than what Edo state looked like before Oshomole entered.

The co operation in Lagos state's government is 3 times better than what we have in Edo state,

I can continue naming, but i don't want to give excuse for failure in any way,

what i am trying to say here is just to correct people trying to use Lagos state as a yardstick for what Edo state should look like within a  few period of time.


GIVE oSHOMOLE TIME, HE IS GOING TO CARRY OUT HIS PROMISES ONCE THE HINDRANCES GIVE WAY A LITTLE.

when did Oshiomole become a governor? i totally was ignorant of it
