Obaseki is ugly? What about Oshiomole?

Bighead9:
Ugly Obaseki deserves to be disqualified. He spend 4 years as a Governor with only 2 projects which are local government standand.

I support his disqualification from participating in the primaries.

osizi06:

Obaseki should be disqualified ASAP...he can recontest in future when his certification has been clarified.
Edo cannot afford another PDP in d state.

Where did you put Oshiomole in this? He’s shameful because he was the one that presented Obaseki telling the world he never forged any certificate

I lived in Edo state for years,, Edo state went backwards when this ugly Obaseki came,, apart from paying civil servants as at wen due, which is their right,, there is nothing he does except demolitions,,, i had to run to lagos when my business crumbled,, and 80% of the youths in my area either ran away to Abuja, Lagos,, or our brother state(Delta state).

Bighead9:


What danger?
Can you do me a favor, kindly mention 10 projects Ugly Obaseki did in Edo state in the last 4 years?

etibaba:
Abi Na Double promotion Obaseki get?

After O level, he did another 3yrs of "A"level at I.C.E, Benin and with that he met the requirements for direct entry of 3yrs in UI
But this politicians are deliberately overlooking that aspect because most people will not pay attention to it.
They are only trying mislead the public in order to weaken his popularity.

God bless you, you know Edo too well. Obaseki is a failure, he did nothing in Edo state.

This is all noise making let them go and verify and stop making a noise everywhere.

Obaseki had another continue education after the O level college, which is equivalent to A level certificate, hence he was admitted for a 3 yrs programme. That was the requirements for university admission as at that period.If the university decided to give a candidate an exemption, it is no body business

Institute of Continuing Education (ICE) is a secondary school, not an advanced school of studies

PDP Edo chapter conducted ward congress today to elect delegates to vote at their governorship primaries slated for 19th this month, but the fidgeting governor Obaseki who is scared of direct primaries is claiming he had signed into law a covid19 gazette which bars any gathering above 20 persons. This Obaseki is kolo

ORIENTATION101:
liar where is the link to your source.

Like UI gave admission to 3 credit instead of constitutional five.
He finished a four years course in 3 years

can u prove where he spent 3 years in d university or because u read it just now.

beside he had ICE which qualifies him for 3 years in UI

did UI tell u dey didn't give him d result?

did NYSC tell u his certificate is fake?

what was the criteria to study classical studies den?


you should ask what obtains during his time not ur empty talk

classical studies is not a major course dat may have required him to get 5 credit.

So na Olodo dey govern edo state since? No wonder...

Racoon:
So he have inconsistent certificate issues yet Adams Oshiomole and the APC bypassed and concealed it for him in 2016 to become governor.Now that they're sworn enemies, scrutinization of certificates comes to play.This is nothing but hypocrisy.

No. This is politics. If you can't get the upper hand, remain loyal.

kahal29:
The intrigues over who clinches the ticket of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for the September governorship election in Edo State deepened yesterday with pressure on the ruling party to disqualify the Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, from the race.

The pressure came against the backdrop of the unexplained inconsistencies in his certificates, which were among those the party displayed yesterday at its national secretariat in Abuja.

THISDAY learnt those pushing for Obaseki’s debarment told the APC leadership that given the unexplained inconsistencies in his certificates, the party would be faced with a likely repeat of its experience in Bayelsa State where it won the last November governorship election but its candidate, David Lyon, was stopped on the eve of his inauguration following a judgment of the Supreme Court that voided his election.

A five-man panel of the court, led by Justice Mary Peter-Odili, had overruled the declaration of Lyon along with his running mate, Biobarakuma Degi-Eremienyo, as winner of the governorship election.

It had upheld the November 12, 2019 judgement by Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court in Abuja which had disqualified Degi-Eremienyo in the election for submitting forged certificates with multiple names to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

The Supreme Court had ordered INEC to issue fresh certificates to the candidates of the party with the next highest votes and with the required constitutional spread of votes in the results of the election, which are the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Among the inconsistencies cited in Obaseki’s certificates are that his O/Level results showed that he has three credits but despite that he spent only three years to allegedly bagged a Bachelor of Arts degree in Classical Studies from the University of Ibadan, Ibadan, in 1976, without an A/Level result.

A/Levels are required for a three-year direct entry course in Nigerian universities. If you have O/Level credits in at least five subjects, then University of Ibadan and a indeed other universities required a mandatory four-year course. The question APC is dealing with include: could three O/Level credits/passes have given Obaseki admission into University of Ibadan as required by law? And if indeed, he got the admission, could he have graduated in three years instead of mandatory four years? Would APC not be facing another Bayelsa scenario when the NWC was blamed for fielding a candidate with a dubious certificate?

Besides, there’s a discrepancy in his degree certificate and that of another governorship aspirant, Mr. Chris Ogiemwonyi, who graduated the same year in University of Ibadan with a Postgraduate Diploma in Petroleum Engineering.

In a petition to the Chairman of the Screening Committee for Edo State Gubernatorial Election, some concerned members of APC in the state, Mr. Edobor Williams, Ugbesia Godwin and Amedu Anakhu, warned that the party would be risking another Bayelsa scenario if Obaseki is not disqualified.

In the petition, they said their action was borne out of their passion for APC’s success in the forthcoming governorship election in the state.

In the petition, dated June 8, 2020 and entitled: ‘Petition For The Disqualification of Godwin Obaseki from Participating in the Gubernatorial Primary Election For Edo State, signed on their behalf by their lawyer, Mr. Chisimdi Chima, the petitioners said their findings after a thorough checks on the governor’s background revealed that in 2016, he submitted a false affidavit to INEC to aid his qualification for the then governorship election.

According to them, PDP, which had suspected foul play over the documents submitted to INEC, had approached an Abuja High Court for a Certified True Copy (CTC) of the affidavit of loss of document Obaseki had presented in his form CF 001 to INEC in 2016.

The petitioners said in response to PDP’s request, the Abuja High Court denied issuing any affidavit to the governor.

Based on the above, the petitioners stated that the letter of the court to PDP dated September 28, 2016, “clearly established the element of false affidavit on the part of Godwin Obaseki, which makes him disqualified.”

The petitioners added: “Any political party that fields such a disqualified candidate would be fined under section 31( 8 ) of the Electoral Act.”

The trio said they wanted Obaseki investigated for allegedly falsifying a public document and submitting same to INEC for official use following the governor’s interest in participating in the forthcoming governorship election.

They also called for Obaseki to be investigated over his alleged academic qualifications, which he submitted to INEC in 2016.

They said: “The problem with Obaseki educational history is that it appears fraudulent as no explanation has been reasonably offered why a four-year academic progamme was completed in three years against the established course requirement for the completion of a degree programme in Classical Studies.”

According to them, the governor claimed that he obtained a degree in Classical Studies from the University of Ibadan in three years after gaining admission from Eghosa Grammar School with only three credit pass in his Ordinary Level certificate.

“It is indeed very questionable when one imagines how Mr. Obaseki secured the admission into University of Ibadan with just three credit pass in his ordinary level certificate at a time when the educational system was purely on merit,” they stated.

While they noted that the three-year degree programme was, and is still applicable to only students with Advanced Level certificate/Diploma/National Certificate of Education, they said the governor never showed that he possessed an A’Level certificate to qualify for a three-year programme.

They therefore prayed the screening committee to disqualify Obaseki for alleged falsehood.

Attached to the petition include copies of the sworn affidavit dated June 7, 2016, letter from Chief Ferdinand Orbih SAN, September 2, 2016, letter from the FCT High Court, dated October 28, 2016, Form CF 001 submitted to INEC on July 12, 2016 and University of Ibadan revised/new requirements for U.T.M.E and direct entry.

The petitioners also compared Obaseki’s University of Ibadan certificate with that of Ogiemwonyi, who graduated from the school the same year – 1976, saying there are conspicuous differences.

They noted that while Obaseki’s certificate was signed by just the vice chancellor, Ogiemwonyi’s was signed by both the vice chancellor and the registrar of the institution.

The petitioners are already before the Federal High Court in Abuja, to contest the genuineness of the governor’s credentials.

Now it is cleared that either APC don't have a case or the OP of this page don't know what he/she posted...among the results of GGO posted yesterday was an A/level result

A lot of people rush to comment without understanding what they are commenting on. The minimum academic requirement to contest for governorship is O'level. And that was the only certificate obaseki submitted. He did not submit any university certificate to them. So what are they disqualifying him on. This is a fresh election and will be judged by what he submitted to inec for this election. Obaseki may not have attended university or graduated, but in this case, he played a smart one. He just submitted his O'level. They have nothing on him.

These folks do not realize that A level those days is what they called HSC - was a way to bypass 100 level in most Universities - it was famously later called Direct Entry - and because there was no JAMB those days, most Universities needed to fill certain departments up and they granted some concessions to admit certain Individuals based on the University's internal written examination and Oral Interview.

To settle all these rubbish, why not contact the UI and ask them if they admitted Obaseki AND allowed him to graduate based on the documents he presented? Why is that too hard to do? So someday now, some indomie generation will accuse me of not passing POST UME before I got admitted in a Nigerian University those days, hence my credentials are fake, when in my time- there was no post-UME

funny axs ho les!

Abeg who knows what classical studies is? Google is not responding. If I advice my neighbor's daughter to study classical studies,where she go fit work? Nnpc,CBN,Shell, Chevron or where abeg

By the virtue of that course she can't work in such places you mentioned. But anything is possible in Nigeria.

Classical studies are akin to history. They can work in the museums, airports I think, embassies but preferred if she can further on Law. Not really a fine course by Naija standard.

By the way that's late Bola Ige first degree!

If Obaseki has a forged result, PDP should take him to court and get his tenure notified ... by this , there won’t be any election

Oshomole is ready to burn down Edo STATE as long as he sinks Obaseki

I have a funny feeling - Oshomole's end wont be good!

My sincere take on this issue is that if truly he forged the cert, I think the court has to renege the years he has used as governor, freeze his account and hand over the government to the candidate of the party who emerged runner-up in the 2016 election. I think APC should be penalized for this gross errors

Bighead9:

If Obaseki win am , hungry go kill you be that oo...go get work or handwork before politicians use u settle scores o
