The Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, on Thursday, visited his Cross River State counterpart, Prof. Ben Ayade, at the Cross River Government House, in Calabar.

The visit is coming exactly 4 days after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Obaseki as the winner of the September 19 Edo Governorship election.

Igbere TV correspondent in Calabar reports that the Edo governor was in Cross River to express gratitude to Ayade and the people of the state for their support which made his re-election possible.

Governor Obaseki, who said he remains grateful to Gov Ayade, described his victory in the election as a unifying factor for the South-South region of Nigeria.

In his reaction, Governor Ayade congratulated Obaseki on his victory, saying with the reclaiming of Edo State by the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), the South South zone was now more united.

Earlier, Governor Obaseki was at the Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers and Akwa Ibom States Government House to thank Governors Ifeanyi Okowa, Douye Diri, Nyesom Wike and Udom Emmanuel for the roles they played in his electoral victory.

Obaseki was accompanied by his wife, his deputy, Philip Shuaibu, his wife, PDP National Vice Chairman (South-South), Chief Dan Orbih, Senators and Rep members from the state, top government functionaries and party chieftains among others.

Igbere TV reports that Governor Obaseki defeated Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), 12 other contestants to win the just concluded September 19 Governorship election in Edo state.

During the course of the meeting, the First Lady of Edo State, Mrs Betsy Obaseki, presented a gift to Governor Ben Ayade as a way of saying "thank you" for the support rendered her husband that saw him emerge victorious at the gubernatorial election.

Good for him

Ayade?
I don't see why he should thank Ayade.
Ayade is APC mole in the PDP

Nice one from the governor

Has he visited Makinde of Oyo state yet?

This one will soon visit governor Koffi of Kumasi

South south governor's United. E remain south east

we try to evaluate the person in terms of our perception. We try to see what we share in common. The more similarly,the tendency to open ourselves more to friendship. We reserve a space  for those who share our family, language, ethnicity and expand it to those who share our hobbies,job, religion etc. This  common trait enable us build bridges beyond ourselves and those outside of us .

In the same way, when the dissimilarities are more, we create a barrier . We do not include them in our circle . We create imaginary wall. We hold our emotion so tight .

We are consciously or unconsciously connecting with people or saperating from them.The boss who isolates himself from the  workers treating them as  human machine  is building a wall of saperation . The master who offers a word of appreciation,, ask how the children are doing  builds bridges of connection. Every wall we build breeds a new wall . 

Whatever keeps us from reaching out to people is a wall. It could be sence of superiority, wall of selfishness, intolerance, group,fear etc

To curb this, we should see ourselves first as human and admit that the other is a living being like us. Developing closeness to the entire human. Seeing ourselves in terms of this group or that group obstructs us from a wider identity as human beings. We should refrain from getting so attached to our religion or group as that would blind us from seeing the value of another religion. We can take a cue from doctors and red Cross members who offer assistance to injured without inquiring about the patient group. Our motive should be universal compassion and desire to alleviate the suffering of others.
