Essential:
I thought incumbency will help Obaseki but when I heard he was fighting Captain Hosa I instantly knew he was finish.
First, no prominent Bini man or Chief who knows the close relationship between Captain Hosa and the Oba of Benin will want to identify with him or support him. He pick the wrong enemy.

Secondly, he is no longer in the ruling party. So the police and other security forces are no longer on his control and side 100 Percent.

Thirdly, he is not a grassroots politician and the price he paid to get PDP ticket was too high. I'm not talking about the money he paid. he sacrifices and didn't consider the interest of most of the people that decamp with him to get the ticket.

[s]Trash. With this rubbish you wrote up above, it's official Obaseki has done nothing.

1* Samuel Igbemudia stadium was not built by Obaseki, he can't take credit, he only repaint it.

2* Obaseki Agric program is not verifiable, post pictures and videos of it to proof your point.

3^ He did not build any block of Classroom, he only repaint few Schools and he wants to take credit for the schools. God punish Obaseki.

5^ You are still mentioning rehabilitation, I didn't see where you mention a verifiable projects Obaseki started from scratch and completed by now.

7^ The Road leading to Water Resources is done by NDDC.

10^ Patrick Ihemen Road is a Niger Delta Development Commission's project.

11* This is the biggest lies ever. Teachers and pensioners are suffering under this Government. For the past 2 weeks now, teachers and pentioners of Edo State College of Education Ekiadolo, are seeing protesting for the none payments of their salaries and pentions for the past 11 months.

12* Ikpopkan Road is only half a kilometer. It's a substandard Road with no drainage. It falls below a local Government standand Road. The reason Obaseki construct the substandard Ikpopkan Road, was because he bought a house on that axis, with funds he embezzled from Edo Government account.

13^ You refer to instalation of cables as achievements? You deserve some beatings aswear.

Obaseki na bad market, no matter how you try you can't sell him to the good people of Edo State[/s].

Yeyeyeye... It's a bad omen Nonsense

kestor:

The same place I have been chilling out since about 8:30am where the only thing people are chanting is 4 + 4= Torgba? True, some APC thugs were there to cause trouble, but they met their match in the PDP thugs who had been empowered today, and sadly so, by the security agents.
Stop this debauchery, it's very puerile. We're not all strangers in Edo.

Obaseki disgraced, booed as chants of ‘thief’ greet him at the Palace of the Oba of Benin

The Governor of Edo State, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, was left deflated and completely disgraced today at the Palace of the Oba of Benin after his convoy was blocked by angry residents, numbering in hundreds, who booed and disparaged the Governor as a thief.

Governor Obaseki was reportedly at the Palace for royal blessings as he flagged off his campaign as the candidate of the PDP in the Governorship election.

Upon sighting his convoy from a small distance, the people, hitherto rejoicing and making merry as is usual at the ancient Palace, immediately formed an angry mob of protesters and confronted the embattled Governor with chants of “thief” and other disgraceful epithets, demanding that he leaves the Palace and not “pollute the environment with his dishonorable self.”

Obaseki and his accompanying aides were left perplexed and all attempts to salvage the situation only further angered the crowd who insisted that he leaves, stating that he has been rejected and is no longer their Governor.

Such rejection at the Palace holds great significance in the Benin Kingdom and Edo State as a whole.

It is perhaps the greatest indication that the Governor, presently struggling to get his new party, the PDP, in shape, will lose the Sept. 19 election.

A palace source who pleaded anonymity said “what took place today is a bad omen for Governor Obaseki and his PDP. He selfishly came for blessings at a place he has not really sowed any good seeds and he received boos and disgrace. It is a clear sign of rejection and what is to come.”

“Some of his followers have already gotten the cue and they are abandoning him despite threats and offering of monetary rewards. That campaign, starting like this, can never be successful. The people don’t want this man anymore.”

This is why many people don't see news on Nairaland valid. This is very bad if Seu refuses to do something about the moderators moving fake news to the front page. As a moderator you have to be very neutral and objective.

Sometimes when I read news here, I don't believe until I go to find more about it. Make this nairaland forum a place free from fake news and rumors.

favor914:
You mean projects done by APC, carry your contemporary to Obaseki’s family compound to see what he did there, Governance is not about an ordinary individual, it is a collective, that it is why it is called a party, selfish cow faced dung Obaseki, you should have also volunteered to show us the projects done by hype man deputy Governor Shaibu?

sandraade:
Why are they calling him OLE? That's a Yoruba meaning for Thief. Why not use their language to describe him as thief, why using yoruba...Anyway, this shows how superior yoruba language is, in Nigeria. It's always their to borrow for any Language that fails to have a word to describe any English word
