Paul Ohonbamu Resigns Obaseki's Commissioner Ahead Of Edo Governorship Election by BleedingPen: 1:34pm On Jun 04, 2020
The Edo State Commissioner for Communication and Orientation, Barr. Paul Ohonbamu, has just resigned his appointment.

The Commissioner tendered his resignation in a letter exclusively obtained by Igbere TV on Thursday, which was addressed to the governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki.

He said he has “decided to step aside as a cabinet member and operate outside it for the general good of Edo State and pursuit of happiness for the citizens.”

Ohonbamu’s resignation comes barely a month after the governor’s ex-Chief of Staff, Taiwo Akerele walked away, amid the trend of high-profile exit from the Obaseki-administration

Reliable sources in the Government House say several other senior aides, including serving Commissioners, are planning their exit ahead the Edo 2020 governorship election.

The latest resignation comes weeks to the Edo All Progressive Congress (APC) primaries, in which Obaseki is seeking to fly the party's ticket in the September 19 governorship election.

The, governor, however, have top contenders to battle to clinch the APC ticket, including a former Secretary to State Government and Peoples Democratic Party 2016 governorship candidate, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu.

Rumours are rife that the now resigned Commissioner had pledged loyalty to Adams Oshiomhole, Obaseki’s estranged godfather and national chairman of the APC. Both Obaseki and Oshiomhole have been at loggerheads for some time now.

More details later...

Let me make it clear for those who isn't aware but come online to boast of how Obaseki will defeat Oshiomhole in this political battle. Majority of those in Obaseki government were once with Oshiomhole and they are die-hard Oshiomhole foot soldiers, including Osaro Obazee that picked nomination form and Osaigbovo Iyoha (Gbovo) that's Obaseki PA. Now this is the secret, so many persons would have wondered why Obaseki has been going on with this battle like a political novice, the person advising him on this is Chief Osaro Idah, he is Obaseki political adviser, he was also Oshiomhole political adviser and foot soldier, lastly, he was and still part of Ize-iyamu clique. So he has been advising Obaseki wrongly just to finish him politically. Expect more defection before the primary, the kind of defection that will surprise and shock Obaseki.
Hon Paul Ohonbamu was a member of Edo State House of Assembly and one of those that stood by Oshiomhole during the time EDHA had issues with PDP and Goodluck. He was personally compensated by Oshiomhole to run for HOR representing Ikpoba-Oka/Egor Federal constituency but lost to Hon EG Agbonayima in 2015 and because of his loyalty to the course, Oshiomhole personally recommended him to Obaseki as a commissioner...is this this same person that will end up betraying Oshiomhole when the die is cast? Someone should please tell Obaseki to go and sleep because he would have totally dissolved his cabinet and appoints new people when the battle with Oshiomhole started, but rather he continued using Oshiomhole and now also Ize-iyamu cliques and expect to win. So sad of him

Obaseki is in

When I pass Ikpoba river this morning I noticed some on unusual change in d river then my instinct told me that someone is about to get drown

The worst thing Obaseki did is to fight a hand that once feed him.
Oshiomhole has never fought nd loose any battle
He fought Obasanjo as NLC chairman nd won.
He fought PDP in court to claim his mandate he still won.
He fought Osunbor nd still won
He fought Tony Anenih nd Igbinedion nd won.
He fought Pius Odubu his former deputy nd he won
He fought John Oyegun to clinch APC national chairman nd he still won.
He fought Saraki nd still won.

I doubt if Obaseki will win this fight

People like this are dangerous and the other camp too might be weary of him

You can't wine and dine with someone for close to four years and then ditch him for the 'enemy's' camp at the most crucial time, it's unfair.

I see Obaseki as a political novice. He ought to have decamped to PDP and muster support from grassroot.Align with Tambuwal and Wike together with d faction of APC that's with him.
There are some fight you lose as a member of a family but will win if you are not in that family.
His fall is imminent. The Oshiomole camp will win Edo even if they will leave Ondo for d Fayemi Camp.

Its very simple! They have seen the empire crumbling, they want to pitch their tent with the incoming government to stay relevant in Edo Politics.
If Obaseki loses(which ofcourse they have seen the handwriting on the wall), they become irrelevant for the next 8 years in the state and nobody wants to risk that. Besides, most of these guys resigning are political progeny of Adam Oshiomole

Happiness for the citizens or your self interest, our Politicians always believed every citizens are gullible, must you operate outside, audio resignation.
