bro hope you have taken your drugs this morning

Everybody talking trash Obaseki is a gonna , Obaseki has failled bla, bla , bla. If u understand Governor Obaseki who will knw that corrupt and PDP oriented politians (share d money) can't wrk wit him. His administration is restricted from normal political gimics of heartless squandering of public funds. If u are caught up in that act, you have to honorably resign or u get fired. He is a uniqe governor with great desire for transparancy in government

TheGodlessGod:
that's why obaseki needs to go fast, he has lost my support.

Who has your support ever helped?

Yes, you defend, knowing fully well that your striker and goal post is weak... in other word, you ain't doing well enough to gain the trust of the masses

Governor's, local government chairman, ministers and political actors all behaving like thugs.

AreaFada2:

It's people from outside Edo State trying to Stoke ethnic hate. People of various ethnic and religious backgrounds have co-existed in Greater Benin for centuries. Of which Edo just a small part. I do not know how people foolishly thought naming the state Edo state was wise. Edo traditionally means central Benin City. Not even including Uselu. Whereas Benin was the empire.

Even Gov Obaseki's great great grandfather came from Anioma. But they see themselves as Benin today. In Edo people have the liberty to identify as they want. We do not need outsiders to bring us their tribalism and tribal agenda.
Benin was capital of an empire from 1440 to 1897. Various people brought their talents and settled there.

People like Stella Damasus Aboderin, Ramsay Nouah and many others were born in Benin. It has been a melting pot for centuries.

This is just about setting the facts straight. Taiwo Akerele is a Yoruba man from Edo state. Period!

Godons1:
In his 4 years of Governance, he kept propagating hate and lies against Oshiomole. Meanwhile, he was doing nothing as regards developing the state.

The first part of your statement is false, what he revealed about Oshiomole's administration is true.

The second part is correct, he hasn't done enough in terms of development.

I pray we get a better candidate so that both obaseki and oshiomole will be retired.

They will now vote in the next "calamitee", the fake Pastor

Nigerians seldomly get good leaders anyway

Obaşeki is a gonner. This Pandemic has realy proven how clueless he is. The people of Edo are wiser now. In his 4 years of Governance, he kept propagating hate and lies against Oshiomole. Meanwhile, he was doing nothing as regards developing the state.

Jazzafizzy:

He's from igara / akoko Edo in Edo state . They bear yoruba names . I'm very sure his resignation has something to do with shady deals ....... Oshiomole almost sacked( financial misappropriation) him some years when he was the head of see4 in Edo state , if not for obaseki .

Very right! You really know him very well. It was from SEEEFOR that he became Obaseki's CoS.

bigfish3k:

Yes naa, there are yorubas in edo state

Or is anybody disputing that?
I know so many

There are also people in edo state that bear igbo names. They are of the ika origin. I have met so many too
I don't want to shake any table. They can speak for themselves if they are igbos

Taiwo Akerele is Igbira (Ebira) from Akoko Edo, their language/names are Yoruba based but they're not yoruba.
Ika people (from Agbor in Delta State), are like Ikwerre people of Rivers State - they are igbolike but not Igbo.

Obaseki taking on so many fights

Ika is in Delta State, not Edo state. They are referred to as Delta Igbos.

helinues:
So Edo are yet to done with their in-house fighting.

How would all this attract investors to the state?

Greediness of few, suffering of many

What type of investment were you expecting?

This guy has some vital secret to expose to the opposition

[quote author=moderatedguy post=88913038]
To start with, are you in EDO? Did you vote in the last EDO elections? When did you start following obaseki and oshiomholes rift? Is it that you are not aware obaseki is the chief sponsor with logistics,manpower and in cash of the plot to oust oshiomole or you are just pretending? Do you know how many prominent bini sons obaseki made sure they lose their federal appointment just to cut down oshiomhloes influence?
Do you know obasekis campaign promises? The track one and highest selling single of obaseki's campaign promises was the gelegele seaport project but after almost four years and hundreds of millions of naira budgeted for just soil testing and squandered where is the project now? See baba, just go relax if you have nothing to do other than supporting an obvious failure.

OBASEKI IS A GONER. ONLY A MATTER OF TIME.

Well, the news won't tell you the real truth. He's my mum's younger cousin and we know what's happening. Lass lass, politics in Nigeria is scam.

Please tell me about the people bearing igbo names as edo state indigenes that are in edo state

I am from rivers state and I am igbo not Igbo like

Is just like saying tilapia is a fish like but not fish
If your closest likelihood is igbo then you are igbo
Imagine calling your self delta igbo but I am not Igbo. Then the suffix igbo should not appear in your introduction My friend this is the biggest confusion and statement I have come across

Its just like saying : I am a sardine fish but I am not a a fish

Dear Zombie,

I trust this message meets you well.

Edo is not a state in the Southeast. It's actually located somewhere in a region called South-south, you know, like where you have states such as Rivers, Delta, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom etc. Also, fun fact: during the civil war, the majority of indigenes of this area never bought the idea of "Biafra" so much so that their people in the diaspora, UK to be precise, staged a protest against Ojukwu's dream.

Should you have difficulty with all that is written above, do not hesitate to contact me via a private message or a quote.

Thank you for your time.

Respectfully.

Nigerian citizen (and a full-blooded Yoruba admirer of Biafra).

Signed.

There are people in Delta State bearing Ibo names, not Edo state. I never mentioned Edo state. Read my comment that you quoted again. I was responding to someone who said there were some Ibo-like tribe in Edo state called Ika but I corrected him that they were in Delta State, not Edo state.

Person wey dey shame na hunger go finish that person ooo I dey humble and loyal to you all, hunger don teach me mathematics where I dey on missionary, nothing is too small brothers and sisters, I pray for you today covid will not have effect on you even if you eat it in Jesus name Amen.

I wrote that there are igbo bearing names in edo state and I have come across some of them
I want you to agree with me. It seems they are called igbanke

I haven't come across such. My mum is from Edo state and I lived there for 11 years.

Please find out its true, I just finished speaking with one now on phone. His name is chukwuma
He told me they are igbanke but they speak Ika which is the same as agbor

Avalancheman:


Nope. Igbos don't bear Hausa names and vice versa...

So those Igbo converting to Muslim still bear ifeanyi , emeka ,chima e.t.c ? Don't be deceived guy . Go to imo state and see for ur eyes how igbos are now embarrassing Islam

Avalancheman:


Shut up and learn! Not everybody from Edo state is Edo by tribe...

Ignoramus, Edo is not a tribe but a collection of tribes...

I know many people from Edo State that bear Yoruba names like Ayo, Toyin, Taiwo &Kehinde, Tope, Segun ,even in Benin City.



Prof Ambrose Folorunsho Alli was the Governor of old Bendel State between 1979-1983.
Dele Giwa and Ade Bendel are also from Edo State.

Avalancheman:
Is Taiwo Akerele from Edo state

4ckyou:



Obaseki is fighting the wrong fight, edo has 22 Coronavirus cases and he's doing nothing about it, I like him before but now he's just an idiot with no brain.

nope u liked him b4 coz the media told you to, i know your kind u have no thinking capability of your own and ppl like u can hate someone because someone else hate him. Oshiomole-obaseki sag made u pick side with obaseki but let me break this to you oshiomole is one great governor obadeki can never be, not in this lifestime. Oshiomole did more for the ppl of edo and what do we have hear a clown gov who is mistaken his powers as federal. He's slipping
