A strategic blunder.obaseki miscalculation keeps making it easy for APC to capture Edo state.

Svoboda:


Haha. They were objs right hand men. They pioneered real estate in abj. Their connection isnt minister level o. I fear osumenyi men.

Osumenyi power doesn't extend to abj.wike is the elrufai of the south

Svoboda:


Not just igbo, but osumenyi. They hardly forget an act of injustice. Its like a creed.

Lol but it seems those guys are land grabbers

Taigaban:
Wike and Umahi are working very hard. If Wike have had the opportunity to rule this country, infrastructural development could would have been at it best. But at this point I wish that Nyesom Wike allow Fubara to do his work.

Is wike stopping fubara from working? Is Alia not working

Sheuns:
There’s no way SANWO Olu is better than Ambode in terms of performance and good governance. If you’re talking of playing politics SANWO is better but in governance after Fashola, Ambode comes second in ranking of Lagos governors since 1999.

Also there’s no way Sanwo will or can surpass Fashola’s records. Fashola was so popular that children felt the impact from his government.

Sanwo Olu is just a politician and not anywhere close to Ambode and Fashola in governance.

What are ambode's achievements that sanwoolu didn't better? Under ambode,Lagos was dirty and the light rail slowed down

Nebes:
Dr. Peter Odili of Rivers State

Ye,the only good godfather from the south.another worthy of mention is senator Ahmed rufai sani yerima

raumdeuter:
James Ibori

His godsons are failures,always interfered unnecessarily in governance

Vice president shettima: for me,he is the best godfather.he brought a prof of sterling qualities ready to revamp the fortunes of borno.he gave him a free hand to run the state and borno has now largely recovered from the Boko scourge.zulum alongside otti are the best governors in Nigeria

Senator Wamakko: he brought tambuwal reluctantly in 2015 and gave him a free hand to run the state.he almost defected with tambuwal to pdp.he now enthroned the current governor Ahmed aliyu sokoto and does not unnecessarily disturb or bug him.he keeps his distance.

President Tinubu: He enthroned fashola who was the best governor of the 2007 class.he also brought ambode who did his best and when he derailed from the Lagos master plan,was replaced with a better product in sanwoolu who is about surpassing fashola's record.tinubu is already preparing a crop of candidates with sterling qualities like muri okunola,senator abiru,hon Jimi,Femi hamzat, Benson,prince olurin junior to succeed sanwoolu..
Despite his godfathering success in Lagos,his products in osun and Ogun are failures.ekiti and Oyo are of mixed fortunes.

Senator danjuma goje: he brought a technocrat in senator dankwambo who turned around the affairs of the state and raised it from a sleepy,backward state to a bustling zone before they fell out.he also was instrumental to the election of the current governor inuwa yahaya who is now fighting him but has performed creditably well in gombe.

Senator Al makura: the current governor sule was his product.he has refused to interfere in the affairs of the state government keeping a distance.instead sen adamu is the one interfering and dictating to sule.

Is fubara running mad or what? Why not calm down this first term and unleash the beast during second tenure

quinox947:
If it was you, what would you have done? He wouldn't have been Deputy Governor till now. The likes of Saheed Oshiomhole and some of his colleagues were never inaugurated till their tenure expired. Reason? They stood behind Oshiomhole against Obaseki.

He would have gone to the senate or become minister or DG or agency chair

NaMe4:


It's not about working against or for Oshiomhole, Shuaibu is intrinsically selfish.
Whether he was in good terms with Oshiomhole or not, he wouldn't have a chance at becoming a governor when it was well-known it was time for Edo Central.

Did Oshiomhole not try otherwise during the just concluded primaries? How did it turn out?



That would have been his best approach.
But from his conduct, he would have still challenged his superiors in APC.

Yes but in APC, oshiomhole would have managed him better or suppressed him..you can see how he managed powerful men like iyamu,odubu,osagie,imasuen,agba,profs osunbor,ihonvbere etc. shuaibu has always been rugged and rebellious right from his school days na.oshiomhole used him in the assembly to counter anenih and pdp impeachment moves and then sent him to reps.he is a small version of wike.obaseki cannot manage him,he is intolerant.see how he foolishly picked governor and running mate from his camp abd expect unity,same mistake dickson made in bayelsa.
Oshiomhole made a mistake by making him deputy or bringing him into the executive.the legislature fits him,he should have been left in the reps far away in Abuja and from there to senate.he would have been oshiomhole successor as political leader of the north.

kaludestiny10:
It will help to damage his cv from contesting any elective post in the future.

He will win in court and the ban will be lifted

He would have remained in APC and succeeded tinubu in senate and when gov returns to north,he will be the beneficiary

pingpong1:


This now beyond the Court. After impeachment, the Court can only inquire if the proper process was followed from the indication of the impeachment process from the House of Assembly to the Constitution of the of the 7 man Panel. Even if the charge is that he stole N100 the government coffers, O ti lo

Eventually,shuaibu will win in court, obaseki would look foolish and disgraced and Edo will lose millions so what's all these for? Infact,shuaibu can still rush to court if he suspects a breach of any of the laid down process or breach of right to fair hearing which is the most grievous thing in the constitution

oyeb15:


Hmm . They have impeach a deputy governor just for employing a relative as one of d cook in government house.. any charges. Once they have collect money, u can uptorn it in court after 10 years.

Ask Abiodun Aluko under Fayose

Removing a deputy gov under frivolous or minor charges is why they usually win in court later and make the state pay huge needless amount.the constitution jas made impeachment an important matter.if the charges are not weighty and he is proven totally guilty,then the trial collapses

oyeb15:
Respect your boss wish

I don't see those charges sticking,they look weak

Tolumiide:
Philip should try and survive this moment.
After this tenure, He should humble himself by rebuilding all the bridges he had burnt for Obaseki.
He has a great reputation in Edo, I believe he can win and become Governor in 2028.
He had made mistake by standing against the Governor. The executives are very powerful in Nigeria.

Whatever happens,he will destroy obaseki

IfnobeGod20:
Who doesn't know that money always exchange hands between these lawyers and judges. Know Jupiter can tell me that same didn't happen during the presidential election litigation. It's only God that would save this nation from the hands of these people.

It didn't happen.obi and atiku could not prove anything

Penguin2:
Tor

So Wole Olanipekun is a bribe-giving vagabond.

But ijiots swore he was firebrand.

The ijiot that said that once passport expires, someone’s citizenship has expired and fuuls hailed him.

Now, if he could bribe a lawyer for oil well dispute, imagine what he did with the Presidential Election case.

But one day, monkey go go market, e no go see road come back.

That day no go pass 2027.

We will be there!

It simply means that all lawyers offer bribes in this corrupt system.besides,what olanopekin said about the passport is meaningless but what obi lawyers were able to prove ?
Forget about 2027,obi can never rule.the north will vote tinubu to get power back in 2031 while shettima or ribadu grabs power in 2031...

In continuation of our discussion on the core north,the core north has never voted a southerner until abiola in 1993 because of Muslim Muslim ticket.azikiwe and awo despite their national appeal and popularity failed woefully in core north.infact,awo couldn't find anybody from the north to deputize him that's why he picked a southerner...
Another reason the north might have voted abiola is because he has national appeal,a great philanthropist and has national and international connects which tinubu has and obi doesn't.agsin,the political leader of the north at that time shehu yaradua endorsed him.obj realized this that is why he focused on the middle belt.desoite his famed rigging skills,he couldn't rig core north.gej with all the projects he did for them still failed.obi hss failed already except he becomes a Muslim and picks a Muslim vice.any philanthropy he is doing cant match what gej did between 2011-2015.
APC did not choose mm ticket by mistake,it was well calculated and the only way to victory.

seunmsg:


Kekemeke is above SSG. He was SSG about 12 years ago. He's a well grounded politician and a Tinubu ally. If he can convince the President to support him, he stand a good chance.

Again this current contest is an Ondo South affair. Every other parts of the states have conceded the governorship to them. It now depends on who can reach out more to gather support from other parts of the states since Ondo south will be massively divided.

While I prefer oke,for political reasons let aiyedatiwa retain it because if he loses the ticket,APC might be sabotaged

alfredilly:


It makes no sense discriminating an aspirant on account of his ethnic fixation. Kekemeke is a consumate politician in the state. He's also a brilliant man. Though he stand an outside chance in this contest, we must learn to appraise aspirant based on their idea. I'm an Ilaje man, a tribe one at war with the Ijaws but that doesn't stop the truth. The so-called pure blood in Ondo have ruled without making any reasonable progress. Let's be calming down please. Ondo deserve the best governance and that must not be sabotaged by sentiment.

It is the turn of the ilajes sha.

Ikaeniyan0:
I think the governor will get the ticket

Or oke or akinterinwa

Melagros:

I'm a political analyst, so, shut up your mouth

An anti APC analyst.see this kid oh

Ikaeniyan0:
Senatordave1, what do you think about this latest development?

It's a waste of time.he has no chance na,ijaw cannot rule ondo.he should be eyeing ssg

Isokiscool:
So una dey celebrate Austine okoibhole,former esan north east council chairman and a very worthless politician abi?the election is not too far sha

When he joined pdp in 2020,wasn't you guys celebrating him or was he not of value? By the way, okpebholo visited Uromi and ewohimi,the reception was massive.the love was infectious.he is grassrooted

OVB123:
APC is definatelly going to win the next gubernatorial election in Edo state. I pity Gov. Obaseki and co.

Yes though pdp still have some chances.i fear them

Love56743:


Novice could have won it if he put the house in order, just look at the way he rubbish shaibu and the rest members of pdp, he didn't even negotiate with them well,if obaseki is not careful he end up in jail because he has many political enemies with any good achievement to boost of

Orr.he would be hounded by efcc like yahaya bello.ugly hypocrite like obaseki

Love56743:
Pdp has already lose Edo State, obaseki have so many enemy, how can you just pick someone who is not a grassroots politician to be a governor, you betrayed all those who fought for your 2nd tenure when oshimole frustrated him

You captured it succinctly.it took a great deal of parahuman effort to get reelected and you think a novice can retain Edo

commoditiesnig:

Lol good response. i tire for the guy o.

Most of them from SE are just APC haters

Validated:
The same format we were readying in 2020 where all the commissioners. Just dey play.

These guys defected from APC to pdp then,the presidency was supporting obaseki,wike was with obaseki,shuaibu was with obaseki, obaseki was going for reelection,obaseki was fighting godfatherism,.is it the same format

slivertongue:
FORMER, FORMER LOSS, FORMER DEFEAT, FORMER RULING PARTY , JUST FORMER NOT EVEN INCUMBENT

Guy,APC is taking Edo and ondo.lets not argue this
