Ok

They should ket this guy be nah.

Why all these unecessary disturbances from Oshio and his party nah?

So Oshio want to hijack Edo by force by fire? Ok nah

thesicilian:
Oshiomole was well respected by all when he left as Governor. But now the man who came into office on the platform of anti-godfatherism has now become the enemy of the people in an attempt to be like his godfather role models in APC.

u are totally wrong.. oshiomole was only loved during his first tenure....Edo people hate oshiomole..he should be careful, cos of obaseki decamps,that would be the end of APC in edo

martineverest:
u are wrong...the man is against corruption and Godfatherism.

oshiomole will kill APC las las... starting from Edo state

When that happens, Nigeria will experience a new beginning that will put a smile on our faces.

See this mumu u grateful obaseki, what happened to Ambide wouldbe child's play compared to what oshiomole would do to you. Abi it's oshiomole that will be the one you will collect party form for your immaginary dream of 2nd term as Edo state Gorvenor. You never see something

For your information, the governor gets his form from Edo state chapter of APC who are supporting him and not from the national Secretariat who is just a big bozo

When craze meet craze, then craze go high

What did you expect? power intoxicate. If and when you taste it, there is no going back.

You guys should stop the comparism of Ambode's situation with Obaseki, the situation is completely different.

peeps4u:
I am not for or against Obaseki but I love the fact he didn't allow National assembly bully him. Obaseki's earlier proclamation should be challenged in court instead of the 'order' they gave like Obaseki and Edo House of Ass are answerable to National Assembly

Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State on Monday insisted that he will not issue a fresh proclamation for the inauguration of Edo State House of Assembly as demanded by the House of Representatives and the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).

The House of Representatives last week urged the governor to issue a fresh proclamation within one week in line with section 105(3) of the constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, 1999 (as amended) for a proper inauguration of the state’s 7th Assembly.

It also ordered the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) and the Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS) to seal off the House of Assembly until a proper inauguration is done.
Also, the ruling APC had on Sunday called on the governor to obey the resolution of the House of Representatives and issue fresh proclamation.

However, speaking with Daily Independent on Monday the governor, who spoke through Crusoe Osagie, his Special Adviser on Media and Communication Strategy, said his responsibility as regards the inauguration of Edo State House of Assembly has ended with the first proclamation.

He said, “It is unconstitutional for the governor to issue any other proclamation. The constitution says that the governor shall issue a proclamation letter.

“That is where the governor’s responsibility begins and ends in the constitution of the House of Assembly. So, after doing that, the governor cannot issue another proclamation because the constitution does not allow him to do so”.
The Edo State chapter of the APC on Monday also said the House of Representatives lacks the power to order the Inspector-General of Police (IGP) and the Director-General of the Department of State Services (DSS) to seal off the House of Assembly until a proper inauguration is done.
In an interview with journalists, Anselm Ojezua, the state chairman of the party, also assured the people of the state that no invasion will take place in the state as Edo is not a colony of the National Assembly but a sovereign part of Nigeria.

While restating his earlier statement that the leadership of the party is comfortable with the development in the House of Assembly as its preferred candidates are the ones occupying leadership positions, Ojezua said the intervention of the National Assembly has worsened the political situation in the state rather than resolve it.

According to him, “The people of Edo should continue to live in peace and not to be worried by the so-called threat of an invasion. There will be no invasion against the people of Edo. Edo State remains a sovereign part of Nigeria. We are what we call federating partners.

“We are not anybody’s houseboys. Edo is not a colony of the National Assembly or of anybody or any entity. So, the people of Edo shouldn’t worry at all. All what is playing out now is just politics and it will be resolved politically”.


While accusing the leadership of the House of Reps of acting out a script, Ojezua said having sent its committee to the state on a fact-finding mission and the state chapter of the party has said it is not against the present leadership of the House led by the Speaker, Frank Okiye, what the National Assembly should have done is to recommend a political solution instead of threatening to take over the House.

“We don’t believe that the National Assembly has a right to intervene in this matter. We know that we are obliged to be polite to them when they come calling for very obvious reasons. So, we’ve made all the facts known. If we had resisted them, the tendency would have been that we have something to hide.

“They have come and they have all the facts. The fact is that the House was inaugurated, that a leadership is in place and they are actually functioning and that the matter is in court. With all that knowledge, what we expected to report and recommend is that in the light of all these facts, they should seek political solutions and watch the judicial pronouncements. They didn’t do that.

“They couldn’t even wait for the National Assembly process to be completed before they went to town. In doing that, they justify the speculation in town arising from audio recording where one of the House of Assembly member was boasting that the matter has been resolved and that the Senate President and the Speaker have already been told what to do and three days later, they did that which the voice said, even though prematurely of their own processes. That to my mind has compounded our problem rather than help to resolve”.

Issokay!

Please whenever the House of Reps gives the order for the Police and DSS to seal off the Edo State House of Assembly, feel free to send officers of the "Edo State Armed Forces" or the "Edo State Police Force" to resist them...since we all want to be mad!

Edo is a "sovereign state" my big black butt!!!

Says who? Didn't Dino Maleye get his own form from the PDP headquarters in Abuja?

PapaBaby:
It would be illegal to do it. Proclamation is done only once.

Barrister Lawyer

Reading all the comments above makes it appears as if people forget so soon. Did Godwin not benefit from Oshiomole's godfatherism? Did Oshiomole not appoint him head of his economic management team and thereafter imposed him as APC candidate against the wish of his Deputy Governor and SSG? Now that their relationship is going sour his boasting of a fight back?,let him fight. If he wins, we congratulate him if otherwise, he should remember that when you ride on a tiger, you are likely to end up in its belly.

Some are saying Edo APC are with Godwin, that is good for him if true, but how many of the state House of Assembly members are with him?,how many National Assembly members are with him?

See this mumu ungrateful obaseki, what happened to Ambode would be child's play compared to what oshiomole would do to you. Abi it's oshiomole that will be the one you will collect party form for your immaginary dream of 2nd term as Edo state Gorvenor. You never see something

PDP is waiting for him with open alms. Consider APC losing Edo in the coming election. Esama has even visited the Governor in preparation for the eventual rejection by APC.

uncle Adams no well oh...

The assembly will be closed and taken over

You're not getting it. In this case, the governor is being supported by the leaders of his party in his state. So the national Secretariat cannot do him anything. He cannot be suspended from the national Secretariat, the national Secretariat can only act on the directives given by his ward which is solidly behind him.

The Binis kept quiet when Oshiomohle was doing his own when he was governor because they know their time will come. The Binis will not let their son go down without a fight.

Exactly. Edo people are tired of APC. Give them the opportunity to go back to PDP and you'll never see APC in that state again

U are a poker,,,u can't compare Lagos and Edo,or oshoimole and tinubu.

Personal Interest is making some people to talk as if they are somebody.
Let all be careful for God will fight for the poor without power.

for your mind, edo state is not Lagos ooo

I tot everyone was unreasonable until i saw ur comment, the only intelligent comment here

Milito:
People are sentimentally supporting the Governor of Edo State because they don't like Oshiomole.

They are failing to see that this sets off a dangerous precedence for checks and balances at the state houses of assembly.

If Buhari has secretly issued a proclamation of the National Assembly for just few members the whole media spaces would have been shouting.

Now, a governor informs only his cohorts (which are less than half of the members) of the inauguration of a state House of assembly. And they went ahead to elect principal officers, even though they are just 1/3 of the members. What is wrong is wrong, no two way about it.

The problem with this country is basically hypocrisy.

The same thing is happening in Bauchi state, but no Oshiomole to blame for that one.

When this becomes a norm all over the country where a governor will only allow Hon. Members loyal to him to be inaugurated and to seat, our eyes will then open.
