When did Tinubu become this strong? I know some people won't like this news

Its not about Tinubu being strong or weak, it is about Obaseki being DESPERATE!
We warned him long ago that the path he is threading will lead to his downfall but he said he is the owner of Edo State and Lagos cannot elect governor for Edo.
True, but why is he running helter skelter now, looking for people to beg on his behalf?
Shameless man.
Tinubu was alive when obaseki was acting like a tin-god, he did not listen or call Tinubu by then.
I am certain that Tinubu knows better than to expend his scarce Political Capital on a lost cause like Obaseki.

1. I don't believe Obaseki is a good politician. A fight of two rounds, he has exhausted his energy in the first round

2. Apart from Bagudu that was mentioned, all other governors are pro Oshiomole.

3. To my believe, the meeting was just caricature to fulfil all the righteousness that they tried to helped him. But Alas, nothing good will come out of the meeting as Obaseki faith has been sealed after Oshiomole survived his removal

4. In as much as I don't like what Obaseki did, I still have the feeling that Ize Iyamu might be worse than Obaseki

5. Oshiomole I know will not forgive Obaseki because doing so will mean Oshio has drugged his own political grave if Obaseki come back. Remember, that short man is very stubborn. He did it to Amosun and Okorocha.

6. He will not allow mistakes he made in both Zamfara and Bayelsa to repeat itself in Edo. All permutations@@@.
has been evaluated

7. I wish all of them good luck.

We'll stated; your head dey dia.

I[b] still don’t get why political office holders turn around to fight the same set of people that suffered to get them elected in the first place[/b]. So many of us were very worried when Obaseki started the unnecessary public attacks on Oshiomhole and other Edo State APC leaders. Some very few paperweight politicians and some opposition members were pushing him and he was dancing to their tunes. Every effort made by party leaders within and outside the state to nib the crisis in the bud was shut down by the governor.

The intervention of APC governors is a welcome development even though it is coming very late but I really don’t think they can do much for Obaseki at this point in time. I don’t think a common ground can be found between the feuding parties in Edo State. What they are doing now is what they should have done about a year ago. Aso obo omoye mo, omoye ti rihoho woja.

Anyway, the best solution is for the governors and all lovers of the party to insist on a free, fair, and credible primary election between Osagie Ize-Iyamu and Obaseki. God knows I don’t like size-Iyamu but Obaseki has put himself in a very tight corner unnecessarily. Whoever emerged from the primary should be supported by all the factions. Any other arrangement would not work.

We the masses are the dummies in such affairs.

Fact is such godfathers are too greedy. They want to be governors by proxy. Oshiomhole even wrote the list of Obaseki's SEC members.

Loyalty can be pushed to far at times.

Remember that while Oshiomhole had a recognisable name as NLC leader, he had no money. Obaseki used his business/investment contacts to mobilise funds for Oshio. It got even harder when Oshio lost to Professor Osunbor in 2007. The court battles to Oshio victory cost lots of money. Many people had left Oshio camp after losing the governorship election.

In 9ja, politics relies heavily on money. Especially when starting out.

The same Tinubu they all insulted!

Edo is not Lagos now, why begging Tinubu?

He is one of the founding father of the political party. Oshiomole is an appointee inside the organization.

He is the Asiwaju of Lagos state.

Wait let them run their things while

We stay back and watch

If this is true, then it goes to show that in politics, when you go for the jugular, like Obaseki and his cohorts did when they went after Oshiomhole's political career; you best finish the job. The truth is every debt comes due, and this is pay back time for the hatchet job they did a few months ago. Sadly enough, their failure then and the resulting outcome of this "cap in hand" expedition is a very glaring reason why both Tinubu and Oshiomhole must not step in front of this train for Obaseki. If they make the mistake of doing so; a year or two from now, it might be both Tinubu and Oshiomhole that will be prostrating in front of Obaseki, and going be antecedents, the world would hear it all. Word on the street is you reap what you sow! Enjoy Emperor-Governor!

The only thing that saved Oshiomole was covid19. That was he’s saving grace and obaseki error or miscalculation. Oshiomole was already in obaseki’s cage until Coronavirus happened. Nothing more. It’s not same scenario as ambode.
If you truly know the party constitution, you will know Obaseki was placing nothing on something from onset. Buhari cant singlehandedly remove Oshiomole from office talkless of a Gov. Majority of you ,just comment out of ignorance
That was why PMB and Tinubu allowed Obaseki and his gangs to fool themselves before coming in at the end of the whole episode

I’m a bini man with family centered around Uniben.

Don’t bobo yourself. Who knows Obaseki? Who voted Obaseki in the last election? Ize iyamu is a VERY POPULAR candidate.

APC will win . Question actually is will Obaseki get the ticket or will it be Ize Iyamu.

The winning party is already APC that’s why Obaseki isn’t interested in Decamping same way Ambode wasn’t interested in decamping even after losing his bid at the primary stage.

No I don't need a shoulder to cry on. I need you to accept that it was a massacre simple

I am not Igbo but if KANU was propagating war and not referendum why are his followers unarmed?
MinorityOpinion:


You've not been listening to Kanu lately, he wanted war and he's driving all us in it, no one want war, but not when we're pushed to the wall, Kanu is not asking for war but he's propagating everywhere with hatred and propaganda, hate speech is cause of 80 percent of all war, I wonder when igbo elders will caution him

Why should I accept third party write ups over videos? When you says minorities are u saying the biafran army comprised mainly of Igbo's?

MinorityOpinion:

Kindly check the meaning of massacre in your dictionary, massacre is not killing only one person, didn't Biafra killed unarmed civilian in minorities regions? Killing of one person is not massacre

Hmmm ...light will surely triumph over darkness

Hope APC & Oshiomole don’t find out too late that they are barking up the wrong tree. Obaseki enjoys popular support from citizens of Edo State and will continue till 2024, with or without the hungry party leaders and godfather wanna be Oshiomole.

Thus he should not be afraid of direct primaries
