Edo State Government has warned that any private residence used for the purported rally of the All Progressives Congress in Edo state will have its certificate of occupancy revoked.

The organisers of the mega rally had moved the event to the private residence of the 2016 governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Pastor Osagie Iye-Iyamu along Ugbor-Amagba road in Benin City.

According to a statement by the Secretary to the State Government, Osarodion Ogie, Esq, “having received security advice from the office of the Inspector General of Police. The state government places a total and complete ban on any political rallies, demonstrations or processions in any part of the state.”

He said, security agencies are expected to deal firmly with all persons no matter how highly-placed who will act in breach of the directive.

Ogie advised all parents and guardians to also advise their children and wards not to be allowed to be used by anyone as cannon-fodder in the aid of misguided political ambition and ego of people whose children reside and school abroad.

Nothing would happen

Where in this your garbage airticle does it say the governor would revoke anyone's C of O.

Ogbeta kee you there! Nah anything una dey use find traffic? Arindin

Nothing will happen. The country is governed by laws. The courts are there if any individual feels unduly threatened.
In all honesty it's just rhetoric by Obaseki. He has seen the writing on the wall. This is just pure desperation

Even Boy's Scout wants to become Major General.
Isn't power beautiful?

Seeing how much GEJ under-used his powers, I have hereby resorted not to criticize anyone for using their powers.

Obaseki should do what he can do to keep his powers as Chief Executive officer of our own Edo state.
In a dispensation where court orders are not obeyed and tyranny being the way to go, why should Obaseki act politically correct?

The battle ahead is fierce and what's the essence of power if you can't use it?

Now, the baby governor is about to run mad. So, if Oshiomhole organize a rally in his house, you will pull down Oshiomhole's house. Even if our Starboy the VP Prof. Yemi Osinbajo organize a rally in his house in Edo State just as many of you looting politicians have houses all over the country, you will pull down VP's house. E be like say Edo witches have shared your body, they are just waiting for Garri Ijebu to drink with your body parts.

However, I did not see anywhere in the quoted statements saying that Obaseki wants to jump into burning fire by revoking C of O of political opponents. Maybe the OP is just trying to push the baby governor into a ravaging and consuming fire

In other words you are justifying tyranny and abuse of power.

Obaseki the tyrant Is baring his fangs. This is a democracy and you can’t stop people from associating politically. Who even gave him the power to ban political rallies? So, he now wants to start withdrawing the C of O of buildings belonging to political opponents? From Kabaka’s hotel to Ize-Iyamu’s house. Is he mad?

Obaseki is now fully power drunk. Sycophants and opposition members are hailing him to self destruct. How can he win re-election when over 60% of his party members are against him? Why deploy violence against your party members? Even if he ends up using violence to grab the party ticket, can he win the general election against an opposition that will be supported massively by disgruntled APC members?

It is not too late to turn back from the path of destruction that he is currently on. He is losing the fight with the dirty tactics he’s employing.

Revoke and demolish, nothing will happen this is Nigeria. This man is not Ambode

It is a residential property, residential properties are located in residential areas not fit for political rallies. Secondly there is a ban on all political rallies. Third APC govt chooses which court orders to obey so stop this hypocrisy.

Which section of the constitution gives Obaseki the power to ban political rallies? Which law says that someone cannot hold a political rally inside a residential property

If you took time to actually read the article it says the IG has ordered the ban for all political rallies which affects all the political parties but sentiments won't allow you read. By the way the governor of a state as the chief security officer of the state has such powers to recommend such ban based on security report.
Oga most states have a law that bans such rallies in residential areas, it's either you're ignorant or being mischievous.

As citizens, the right to associate politically is a constitutionally guaranteed rights. Nobody can take that right away. The IGP doesn’t have the power to ban political rallies. The Supreme Court already ruled that we don’t need police permit to hold a rally. Stop talking nonsense if you don’t know what you are saying.

This is the time for all right thinking citizens to call Obaseki to order. We will not sit idle and allow him to turn our democracy to a tyranny. He should use the powers of his office for the good governance of the state and not to run opposition members out of town. What he’s currently doing is abuse of power.
