Like they really care. Try direct Primaries and see yourself go down! But come to think of it, why do our politicians always use this as a vindictive tool? Ondo State is Indirect while Edo is Direct Primary model 1 Like |

Just watch out, small time Oshio's camp will counter this with social distancing at the venue. They will even draw circles to support it. Anyways, direct primaries and Obaseki is out, indirect and Oshio is out. 4 Likes |

Obaseki is just scared.... Coronavirus can still be spread when delegates converge for Indirect Primary. They may even go back and spread it to their communities. It's just 7 local governments that have cases of Covid-19 and it is more in Benin metropolis. Let party members stay back and vote using the direct primary. Obaseki can still emerge as a flag bearer if he is able to do the needful at this critical point.... 11 Likes |

that means elections Should not be held according to u Mr governor, since direct primaries and the main election is similar In nature. but one thing is certain...even if rapture go take place...election must be held. it's not a Nigerian thing, that's how it is everywhere.. major elections hardly can be postponed. 5 Likes |

When Ambode was removed in Lagos, was it the NEC that told the state chapter to adopt direct primaries? Why are we not thinking here? |

Having looked into it, I think the reason he gave is sound and appropriate at the moment, it would be stupid of any body to even suggest such a massive gathering all in the name of ordinary party primaries. If not that Nigeria being what it is, ordinarily, thinking of a direct method won't work but as the powers that be want it, Obaseki is obviously on a losing side. |

I'm waiting for those supporting direct primary and also believed that covid19 is real. Let me see what they have to say. I'm waiting I knew some of them here. |

DrBasit:An indirect method would easily be coordinated and social distance guidelines adhere to strictly but same can not be said about a direct method. |

When did Obaseki start to care for his people? This is a reckless governor who refused to place his state on lockdown when it mattered most just because of political considerations. His ally in this game of foolishness is Ganduje of Kano. As for the primaries, no sane person on earth would agree for an indirect exercise in Edo state. Past events have taken care of that. He should recollect that it was not PDP members that approached the courts for Justice in Rivers and Zamfara states that caused the loss of those states, rather it was APC members who were aggrieved that went to the courts. Since Edo has never been on any form of lockdown since the outbreak of this pandemic, it will not cause any significant departure from the rising profile of covid 19 prevalence in Edo state. Obaseki should be blamed squarely for not separating governance from politics. Since he has been in government for almost four years, he should go and meet his people directly to seek another mandate and not hide under some compromised delegates who are his appointees. 9 Likes 1 Share |

Obaseki is only scared of oshio baba and the outcome of the primary elections which I believed the APC nwc would have plan well, using covid 19 and social distancing as an excuse. Let's sit back and watch as the event unfold in Edo state. 3 Likes |

bolaayenimo: Yes he can. But, he is not going to say ‘no direct primary’. All he need do is to sign an Executive Order against any gathering above 50 people because of the pandemic. He is the CSO of the State and have the power to do that....the current lockdown he instituted in Edo State is restricting everyone, including PDP members. 2 Likes |

I hope this won't come back to haunt him if the FG decides to appoint a sole administrator in States where elections can't hold to curb the spread of the virus. If INEC and our political parties can't manage the situation for ordinary party primaries, how do they intend to manage the situation when multiple parties would be involved on election days. It better they use this as a litmus test to prove election won't lead to a great tragedy. 2 Likes |

I bet your city was not worth the British invading, it had no economic value whatsoever. On political position, what has yours brought u? Hunger?
