Oba of Benin told dangote that Oshiomole did well in edo state. He says Oshiomole assures him obaseki will perform better than him

The Edaiken N’ Uselu and Crown Prince of Benin Kingdom, HRH Prince Eheneden Erediauwa says Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State has made giant strides in infrastructural development and has laid a solid foundation in the State for incoming governors to build upon.

Speaking while receiving the President and Chief Executive Officer, Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote in the company of Governor Adams Oshiomhole and former Ekiti Governor, Niyi Adebayo at the Edaiken’s Palace, Benin City, Wednesday, the Crown Prince said, “We thank God and our ancestors for giving us our able governor. I told the President that I have always said that he has tried in Edo State. I am also sure that he is reaping the reward of his efforts in Edo State. He has tried, and we pray that whoever comes in next should try harder to do better.

He has assured us that if it is his candidate that comes in, the candidate will do better than himself. What our governor did is a feat that nobody believed would have been possible considering that he was in the opposition. At the time he came in, he was in the opposition party, and he was not getting attention at that time from the federal. He struggled to generate revenue from within and he used his wisdom. We pray that God should give him more wisdom. My prayer to him is that, as it has always been, he should sail on and on his tenure without blemish to the end successfully. And that still remains our prayer until he hands over the mantle of leadership, and we pray that the next governor should learn from what the Governor has done.”


He continued, “This city used to be described as an ancient kingdom, referring to that ancient city literarily speaking as if it was looking ancient because it was dilapidated. No light and we were in the dark. He is the first governor that has come and he lit up the place. Why can’t one but commend the state Governor for a job well done, since he has laid a serious foundation for other governors to build on?”
The Crown Prince further said, “Our request to you is that wherever we need something from the Federal level, you should assist our dear Governor to actualize what our request is to Mr. President.

We hope that one day, we will have the opportunity of benefitting from that. So, I would like to request on behalf of our chiefs, the Benin people that you keep on representing us at the federal level, assisting the Governor who has done marvelously well. We also like Alhaji to support our efforts to promote tourism in the state. One of the programmes I have by the grace of God is to promote tourism immensely. My pet project is free trade zone at Gelegele, and I have always been passionate about that. So, I have to quickly mention it.”

Responding, the President and Chief Executive, Dangote Group, Alhaji Aliko Dangote said, “I join millions of Nigerians and indeed the entire black race to congratulate you on the occasion of your ascension on to the seat of Oba of the ancient kingdom of Benin, one of Africa’s most revered and historical dynasties. I feel humbled and highly honoured to be invited to the occasion as one of the special guests. We have no doubt that you will build on the solid foundation laid by your forefathers. We all look forward to contributing our quota to the continuous growth and prosperity of the Benin kingdom during your reign. We pray the good Lord to give you the good health, long life and wisdom for a long peaceful and prosperous reign as Oba of Benin Kingdom.”

According to Dangote, “It’s always been a great pleasure for me to come personally and pay you a courtesy call. It is not even now; we have tried and tried to fix an appointment. There was a day even before that day for me to come and commiserate with you on the passing of our dear father. It is not only a loss to the entire Benin kingdom, but both Nigeria and beyond Nigeria, because he served Nigeria and he was a very peaceful person. And we pray to Almighty God to bless his soul.”

Dangote said, “I would like to personally commiserate with you and also to congratulate you for being the next Oba. I have no doubt, your royal majesty you will not only improve and also take Benin kingdom to the next level; I know that it will be felt all over Nigeria. With your exposure being an ambassador, knowing what has been happening all over the Western world, you will apply it here. We will continue to support your Royal Majesty. Right now, I know that with you, even though he is finishing his term in few days, with him and our new Oba, Benin will become a place where people will come from other places and look for jobs. This is actually a place that God has blessed. I was telling the Governor yesterday, creating jobs in Benin is not a difficult task.”

He added, “Governor Adams has actually done very well. People that have not been to Benin for the past ten years, if they visit Benin they will know there has been a real change, and I really congratulate Adams for doing his best bringing this state to this level. Today, I am more than happy that you are the next Oba of Benin. I congratulate you, and I want to assure you of my personal continuous support for this kingdom under your leadership. I will personally come back.”

Speaking earlier, Governor Adams Oshiomhole who accompanied Alhaji Aliko Dangote to the Edaiken Palace said, “Your Royal Highness, you remember I mentioned to you two months ago that I secured a date for Alhaji Aliko Dangote to come and visit you, to come and condole with you and the people of this kingdom. But then he took off from Lagos, and at Benin Airport there was no landing aid and that visit was aborted. It has been his desire to come to still commensurate with you, but this time to congratulate you on your formal installation as the Edaiken N’ Uselu. He has received your letter concerning the grand reception that we are all working for, God willing on the 26th of this month.”
Oshiomhole further said, “People refer to him in other terms, but I describe him in the way that I know him.

I describe him as the Africa’s most hardworking entrepreneur. It is that spirit of hard work that should inspire Nigerians, not the outcome of the hard work. So, in your palace this morning is Africa’s most resourceful entrepreneur.”

simple truth.

Moderator leave this post here. Don't move it to "Culture" section. This is not a cultural topic.
This is clearly a political discussion and post.

Yes, election was postponed so they will have enough time to bring up all these fake stories and propaganda to deceive the people. The crown prince office will soon deny this cooked-up story

Watch as Wailers will storm here to insult oshomole, Oba including buhari who is not present in d meeting

Maybe Dangote is also a zombie for recognising the giant strides of oshomole, even when lunatic Wailers claim otherwise

Just like d one above me, they will leave the topic to introduce their usual sentiment. Very typical of Wailers

It is authentic.
Nigeria observer is a newspaper resident in edo state.

Every sincere edolites knows Oshiomole did well in Edo State.
My parents are from edo state, I was born in edo state, did my education from primary to university in edo state. worked in edo state. I am over 30 years of age.

Nobody can write off oshiomole's developmental achievement in edo state.

I strongly believe Godwin Obaseki of APC as a financial expert who has helped dangote to become this big will help edo state too to grow economically.

This not about party politics. it is about future of my state.


Why Obaseki of APC Will Make A better Governor than Ize Iyamu of PDP:

Obaseki is a technocrat in financial matters and a close friend to dangote. Obaseki is a major adviser and consultant to dangote group.
With Obaseki as Governor, I expect a lot of Dangote investment in edo state.

Obaseki will make a better Governor. Every smart Edo man and woman will vote Obaseki. We have seen how technocrat make better Governors than career politician. We saw what fashola a technocrat did in Lagos. he transform lagos. We can see what Obiano a technocrat is doing in Anambra. He is transforming Anambra state. We can see how Ambode a technocrat is moving lagos forward. We want technocrat in Edo state not career piliticians. Career politicians just share money among themselves. Technocrat brings development and investment through strategic thinking. We should vote for Obaseki.

While technocrats seek positive history, career politicians seek power. We must be wise to vote for those who seek history. Ambrose Ali was a technocrat. We can see his position in history as a great Governor who brought development. Obaseki is an economic expert. we need such person to run our state especially now we have low oil price. This is d best time for an economist to govern us not a politician.

Politicians spent all thier energy on human relation because d next election is always on thier mind while technocrat focus on macro and micro economic development because history is always on thier mind. Technocrat creat wealth for the people while politicians waste wealth of the people to maintain power.

Those who are being skeptical because Obaseki is sponsored by the sitting governor Oshiomole dont need to worry. Obiano d governor of Anambra state has never contested election in his life. Obiano was a technocrat from the banking sector. Peter Obi imposed Obiano on APGA. He was also sponsored by d sitting governor Peter Obi of anambra state. But today he is doing very well in Anambra state. Ambode of Lagos state has never contested election in his life. He was sponsored by Tinubu. But today, Majority of lagosians who even voted against him are very happy with his governance. A technocrat will always be a technocrat. Technocrat will always need a politician to win an election but it doesnt prevent them from performing very well in developing thier state. because history is d ego of a technocrat.

Well all I ve to say is that! Politicians are politicians so any one can insult them to sit tight! But let no one I repeat let no one dare insult the awaiting Oba of Benin kingdom for saying the truth, in order for such a person not to die prematurely. Nor let finger scratch you reach thereooo

They would soon call for your head! Lol

I experienced Igbinedion from 1999 - 2007, Osunbor from 2007 - 2008 and Oshiomhole from 2008 - 2016 and at least I know what good governance is to an extent.

But, people on Nairaland who don't even know where Edo state is or have passed through the state while travelling(not even resided o), will come here and tell me us that Oshiomhole is a Scam and all sorts. Elections won't be won here. The likes you receive from your ilks won't make Pdp win the election.

We like Oshiomhole's scamming, at least he has transformed Edo. Let Obaseki come and continue with the scamming.

The truth is that most people criticizing oshiomole on nairaland to enmass plenty likes in their post are just doing it purely on party sentiments.
And most of them are not from Edo State.

Most people from Edo state are with Obaseki.

This is not necessarily true.

Kwankwaso has been a career Politician, his works as Governor between 1999 and 2003 beat that of Ibrahim Shekarau a non career politician that served between 2003 and 2011. Kwakwanso second term outclass his impressive first and made Shekarau 8years non existent.

Godswill Akpabio a career politician performed well and his successor Udom Emmanuel is still struggling. Mind you, Akpabio dwarf Attah his predecessor who came as a "technocrat", a refined architect.

You can't compare the deeds of Danjuma Goje as Gombe Governor (career politician) with incumbent Ibrahim Dankwambo(that came as Technocrat). Not saying Dankwanbo isn't trying

In Delta state Ibori a career politician dwarfs Uduaghan (an established medical Doctor).

The point is that performance of a public officeholder is dependent on the holder irrespective of technocrat or whatever sentiment.

Lucky Igbinedion received 197Billion in his 8yrs as Gov,paid workers salaries,employed more workers,Edo line was functioning,Oshomole has received 1.4Trillion so far,Edo line is no longer functioning,Edo has only 14 physics teachers in Govt Schs? Depite all d money,he stil borrowed 150M dollars,we can not be deceived,you cannot compare both Govt if they didn't receive same amount of money.

He has been paid with atleast 500m Naira. Edo people be wise.

You can start your comparison with the number of workers in the state and how much they gulp as salary.


The projects executed by each administration and how you come about the revenue figures you brandish all over the place.

So this thread never still reach fp?

A man present there told me that the cash Dangote gave the youths and women in Uselu during the visit no be small something.

He said used his hands to pack bundle of cash to give to both the youth and women leader.

Don't mind him, Lucky igbinedion is arguably the worst governor in not only the history of Edo/Bendel , nor Nigeria but the whole of Africa. Even Obasanjo was ashamed when he came to Edo State then.

Comedians were mocking us that Lucky is maintaining the "Ancient" status of Benin.

He talked about employment during lucky, Lucky that retrenched many civil servants and after that put an embargo on employment into the civil service.

I entered JSS 1 1999 when lucky became governor. He started constructing Boundary road which he changed to Lucky way. I moved from JSS one to JSS 3 he was still grading the road , till I got to SSS 3 he was still grading the road.

The worst part is that the road is a very small road. I got admission into Uniben the same year I finish secondary school and he was still working on the road. It was when I was in 300 level he finished the road.

The road did not even last a year. a simple google of lucky way benin would show you the road. When roads constructed by Ogbemudia and Ali are still standing.

Why you de lie Na?
JSS1-SS3= 6YEARS (1999-2005)

Year 1- Year 3= 3years (2005/2006-2008/2009)

And Lucky spent 1999-2007 in office. Oga you and Lai Muhammed relate?
