You no get talk abeg. lap claim to be a saint party when you are held accountable you start wailing why not hold PDP n APC in same light.

Same you know APC chairman was caught taking bribe life, make we no talk about Odo with share the money mantra.

If Nigerians can't hold LP accountable to the saint party you claim them to be the you should never comment when they rate them as criminal parties like APC n pdp ever again.

LOVEALAIGBO:


It's funny how you lot are giving APC and PDP a pass, and going through LPs finances with a finetooth comb....looking for any discrepancies and anywhere the figures don't add up! Need i remind you we're talking of the same APC and PDP that have ran the country from 1999 to date, yet NOBODY is giving them the kind of scrutiny you lot are giving to LP! As we speak, APC is led by a chairman notorious for being caught on camera stuffing his babariga with bundles of dollars while wearing a goofy look on his face! Go figure! shocked

You just confirmed that you're a blockhead. Asue wasn't an Executive in the bank, he's a lawyer who was appointed into board position.

You can't use your brain to reason, na wetin them tell you you dey swallow.


Is that the only error? He was the chairman of stealing bank. We like am like that. Better than LP and APC candidate.

LP as a party is dead. It has been murdered mostly by greed.

It's a pity they presented an honest front under a facade of deception and corruption. The worst is that the "obidients" are not oblivious of the corruption, but prefer to defend it using whataboutism.
Hmm

All because he has a Yoruba name - Olumide! I can only hope that all those senseless "I'm Yoruba but" Obidient fools are watching now!

Self preservation is the first law of survival!

I have no business with Lagos state politics. I didn't even think GRV was better than Sanwolu.

But you see Edo, Asue is just as good or even better than the LP guy. Asue is the man we know.

No worries then, speak for yourself. Don't say "Nobody is rejecting him" because many Obi fans are not with this your view.

They are now calling Abure an APC mole

What do Obidients want.... grin

Obidients said that Lamidi apapa was sent by APC to destroy the party

They said that the Labour congress joe ajaero was sent by APC to destroy LP

Now Julius Abure is the new mole sent by APC to destroy Labour Party .

They have never taken accountability to settle issues in LP before. Always blaming others for their misfortune!

There's no better candidate than Asue in the next Edo election. If there's, please show me the person and then tell me what person has to offer

I can bet it, you will have nothing to say here....
For your mind...If Asue Ighodalo was to be in APC would you have ranked him as the best?!

A political illiterate like you will never learn.
@Obi is not a good unifying leader.
He has the opportunity to grow APGA what did he do then? Same in PDP, same in LP.

@ Obi is never a finisher. He doesn't have the legacy of leading,unifying and building a party.
Obi is a mere tribal opportunist who has refused to be patient to learn and grow his politics .
Little challenge he will run and dump.
Obi is a perfectionist on paper ,who in reality will never get anything progressive done. Too utopia. Reason why @LP is crumbling again, like paper before him.


Which partly did your lord and savior tinubu started with, and why did he merge?

But these same folks termed Yorubas tribalists for rejecting Chinedu

Don't say what you don't know.

It's the turn of Esan to produce governor. LP left Esan and brought Edo north. APC made that mistake, but quickly changed it to an Esan man.

I knew Akpata won't fly. LP missed it badly

That CANNOT be true.

There are folks who are indigenes of Edo State with Yoruba names. Some may claim not to be Yorubas (especially in the Akoko Edo axis who say they are Igarras with shared ethnic ancestries with Ebiras of Kogi State) but they bear Yoruba names due to cross-cultural interactions over the centuries with Yorubaland.

The hugely popular former Bendel State Governor under the Chief Obafemi Awolowo-led Unity Party of Nigeria (UPN) Professor Ambrose Folorunso Alli's father was an Esan from Ekpoma, (now in Edo State) while his mother was from Idoani in Ondo State.

For the Bini-Edo axis, there are families that have roots in Yorubaland as a result of the large trading communities that were set up centuries ago. Same thing too with Bini-Edo trading communities in Yorubaland especially In Akure and other parts of Ondo State such as Igbara Oke.

The name Akpata (which spelling with the letter "K" is derived from the Yoruba spelling Apata) suggests an Edo link with the Akure area who then moved back to Edo where they came from. The quarters of the Ado Akures (Edo Akures) still exists today in Akure and some still maintain contact with their family compounds in Benin. They have become Yorubanized though with mixed Yoruba and Bini-Edo heritages.

Even the internationally recognized Ifa religion and names of "some" of the religious deities in Benin such as Ogun, Osun, etc, have their roots in Yorubaland.

Long and short is that there's NO way Edos would reject an Edo indigene simply because he bears the name Olumide Akpata. Asue Ighodalo too has a Yoruba name (just like his brother Pastor Ituah Olajide Ighodalo) because his distinguished Yoruba mother of Ife origin was the first female permanent secretary in Nigeria, while his father too was an Esan-Edo Prince. The Esans historically migrated from Benin to their current location.

Im not understanding. Is Labor Party unaware of the politics of each of the 36 states in Nigeria? Anyone who has their ears on ground in Edo State, would know the long overdue power rotation to Edo Central. APC and PDP knew this and chose a candidate accordingly, even Osho couldn't stop it. Im not understanding LP's rationale here.

Last I read, they have moved their convention to Edo. The other day on twitter, one of their key Obidients that host spaces on twitter was using a tribal slur (ye ri ba) on a Yoruba poster. That party is just APGA reformed.

Last I heard, they have now now moved their convention to Anambra state - the heartland of igboland. grin


The way u easily drag out all these Obidients comment is funny
U so much know their low point

Meanwhile Abure and NLC Chairman Ajaero are still at each other's Throats over who owns LP
