Edo State Government has placed a total and complete ban on all political rallies, demonstrations or procession in any part of the state.
It directed all security agencies to deal firmly with all persons, no matter how highly placed who breached the directive.
A statement signed by Secretary to the Edo State Government, Barr. Osarodion Ogie, said the state government has made clear it’s position that the ‘plans by som identified mischief-makers to organise an unauthorised political rally in Bénin City was capable of leading to breakdown of public peace and also danger to the persons and property of Edo citizens.’
The statement warned property owners that any venue which is used for activities in breach of this order shall have its right of occupancy immediately revoked and forfeited to the state government.
Ogie said the state government would not allow any persons turn the state into a battlefield.
“The events of yesterday 12th December, 2019 were a scary prelude to the absolute mayhem which these irresponsible activities would generate if left unchecked.
“In defiance of the clear and publicized instruction of the Inspector General of Police, calling off the proposed rally owing to security implications, these desperate persons are presently shopping around for alternative venues to carry out their incendiary activities.”
Meanwhile, security was tightened around the Edo APC secretariat.
When our reporter visited, scores of APC supporters were seated around the secretariat apparently waiting for any forceful take over of the secretariat.

Obaseki is a mumu human being. This black-faced homo-sapien should take a leaf from Ajimobi and Seriake before it becomes too late. He fails to realize that Oshiomole and Iyamu will ride on his unnecessary policies and sway indifferent/undecided voters their way.

The funniest part of all these is that he'll repent like a prodigal son and apologize to all stakeholders in the state. Fayose, Ajimobi, Gbenga Daniel, Seriake Dickson, Ambode, etc., have all been down this road before.
