SyrusdeHansome: Buhari and his family members have always been hypocritical in every aspect of life. He once said he had no money to buy a nomination form and yet his children where schooling abroad. Nigeria is sick!
CAUSTIC002: They fly out to get the best medical attention and leave the common man to his fate. Do your best to beat poverty because these people don't care about the poor man.
SirRoberto: The First Lady doesn't owe us anything personally cause we didn't elect her. I am most astonished and disgusted at how much the defenders of this government are paid to have sold their lives to the President and his cabal. This is the definition of man's wickedness to his man.
When you are done reading, kindly enumerate 10 things Oshiomole, Lucky, and by extension Ize Iyamu did for the same State while they held sway.
After that, do well to point out Obaseki's sins.
I honestly want to know what he did wrong. I am mon-partisan, whatever will grow Edo is all I'm up for.
Thanks.

Magicians: Foolish people n foolishness. I wasted my data watching to see where he said he will use thug to rig election. Instead he stated how he will beat PDP at the polls with all the participants handling there various polls. Anyway I am so surprised this is how foolish PDP lunatic claim Buhari said Nigeria Youth are lazy. OK bring the clip where Buhari said those exact works n collect $2M cash till date they can't show such clip yet their father are busy begging overtime online for 2K.
President Muhammadu Buhari has berated Nigerian youths for being 'uneducated' and 'not ready to work'.
President Buhari, while speaking during a panel discussion at the Commonwealth business forum in Westminster, London, expressed displeasure with youths in Nigeria because they were dependent on revenue from oil to survive.
He said the youths, who make up 60 percent of the population, were waiting to get social amenities free without doing anything.
"And then the economy. We have a very young population and our population is estimated conservatively to be 180 million. The 60 percent of the population is below the age of 30. A lot of them have not been to school and they are claiming that Nigeria has been an oil producing country and therefore they should sit and do nothing and get housing, healthcare and education free,"
The moderator had asked Buhari to give his final thoughts on the issues discussed. The President said he had fulfilled his campaign promises by improving on the nation’s security and the economy.
cuvox: Kaduna state Governor Mallam Nasir el-Rufai has said his government has traced some violent,aggrieved Fulani to their countries and paid them to stop the killings of Southern Kaduna natives and the destruction of their communities saying that the renewed violence is carried out by bandits.
El-Rufai made this known while fielding questions from some select Journalists in his office in Kaduna.
He said: “For southern Kaduna, we didn’t understand what was going on and we decided to set up a committee under Gen. Martin Luther Agwai (rtd) to find out what was going on there. What was established was that the root of the problem has a history starting from the 2011 post election violence.
“Fulani herdsmen from across Africa bring their cattle down towards Middle Belt and Southern Nigeria. The moment the rains starts around March, April, they start moving them up to go back to their various communities and countries.
“Unfortunately, it was when they were moving up with their cattle across Southern Kaduna that the elections of 2011 took place and the crisis trapped some of them.
“Some of them were from Niger, Cameroon, Chad, Mali and Senegal. Fulanis are in 14 African countries and they traverse this country with the cattle.“So many of these people were killed, cattle lost and they organised themselves and came back to revenge.
Bolowolowo: Doesn’t matter. We need more privatization and the indigenes will get jobs. State will generate more revenue. Win win for everyone.
Exactly, boss. May your wisdom grow and grow as Obaseki is working hard to grow Edo economy for the people's benefit, instead of one greedy, green eyed wannabe godfater. Amen.
dre11: FLASHBACK: Oshiomhole once wanted building named after Obaseki for ‘selfless service’
Adams Oshiomhole, national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), once said Godwin Obaseki, governor of Edo, worked for the state using his brain and creativity.
Oshiomhole, who praised the governor during the governorship campaign of 2016, said a building at the government house should be named after Obaseki for his selfless service.
Oshiomhole said while he was governor of Edo, Obaseki helped him build the economy team of the state with his network.
“I know my limit. He knows his limit. Godwin Obaseki has worked for seven and half years for the people of Edo state, using his brain, creativity, quietly, not making noise,” Oshiomhole said.
“He sits in the office of the economic team which he built using his network of friends inside the heart of government house without demanding one naira.
“A man like that who will not ask me to give him contracts, but will promise me, comrade, you just do the thinking, we will create the means to actualise your thoughts. And to his credit today, check the books of Edo state, we did not build new structures in government house with government money. That economic team office was built through Godwin’s network. Today, it remains a permanent asset of the state government.
“I want us to be calling that building Godwin Obaseki building. I don’t see your opponent Ize-Iyamu being able to say that. In 2007, check the records, Ize-Iyamu was hiding from EFCC. He didn’t not vote. How can somebody who didn’t vote claim that he made me.
“If you have to look at Godwin and his credentials and you look at a man whose only work, by his CV, was a student and rusticated for two years, he read law but he is not a barrister. That is his foundation. I never gave him government job. Lucky Igbinedion’s mother was reported to have slapped Ize-Iyamu for misleading her son. He tried it with me, but we kept him away. Nothing near government circle. No access to public funds.
“Look at the road to his house, in our books, was dual carriage way. They took the money, constructed the road to his house and stopped. Although we have liquidated the godfathers politically, the entire political family will be liquidated.”
Very rubbish set of liars, fraudsters, 419ers and scammers. I hope that Edo people, especially the youths are working from door to door in every city, town and village to ensure their state does not suffer the same fate as Lagos under Ogbeni Ojuyobo who keeps increasing taxes, levies, charges, tolls, fines, rates, penalties for IGR into his bullion vans.
And Obaseki is also not the governor who facilitated the MoU for the refinery to be sited in Edo state? Awon olodo werey people gathered in the winchious broom coven of the Association of Past/Present Criminals, APC.
Akpolagha: I pity anyone trying to gossip men of God or judging them, OP you definitely had something else in mind posting this, and the plan is working, I pity you too
Evercurious: My dear stop killing yourself .. JUST GO AND BE A MINISTER OF THE GOSPEL.. and pls dont say you dont need it cos if you know you dont , pls shut up
dazzlingd: I use to be surprise by this but later I understood that majority of people are moronss with low IQ. How someone in the first place believes he is a descendant of abraham is enough proof
hopefulLandlord: Kenneth Copeland said he bought private jets from church money because commercial flights harbour demons. Makes you wonder why a strong "man of God" is avoiding demons, shouldn't he go after these demons instead?
Jesse Duplantis, who at the time had 2 private jets already, said God wanted him to buy a better jet, why? because the new jet he'd buy can go to any airport in the world without needing to refuel.
The part of their excuse for owning fleets of jets is that it's used to "Spread the word of God" but this doesn't make sense in today's world as airline companies have been terribly hit by the explosion of the internet. in short airlines made money in the past because interacting with people halfway across the world required you to be there or send letters Which doesn't usually cut it. now you can open your WhatsApp and video chat with almost anyone, you can send a message and it's instantly delivered. This has made airlines lose money so you don't need a jet to spread the word.
At the end of the day, it's their money they got from gullible individuals who can't sit to reason beyond what the pastor says and try to reconcile it with what they do. A lord's chosen pastor tells you to buy his expensive reflective jackets and wear them for both spiritual and physical protection and you believe him even though he uses bodyguards
Oyedepo would preach faith healing to you but won't hesitate to fly his wife to world class hospital aboroad when she was sick
when they need material things they would ask you to donate but when you need material things they would direct you to "God"
the bitter truth is that Religious belief is an invisible security blanket for insecure individuals. Closeted minds will continue to allow brainwashing and indoctrination by religious leaders that there is a 'god', and there was a 'jesus', in order that the people with closed minds allow themselves to be controlled so that the various Corporations (churches) remain profitable as the tax-free money continues to roll in. people center their lives around a fairy-tale. All that time, energy and money centered on a lie. For some it's a business, for others it is the central cause of division within their family. Religion sucks. All of them.
zebra: No wonder government wants them to be paying taxes now as some of them a4 richer than some states in Nigeria. Government wants to increase its revenue base.
The same thing with the Muslims such as AkewugbaGold in Ibadan.
CodeTemplar: False information. There is a difference between the office a clergyman occupies having a PJ attached to it and the clergyman owning one. Buhari has access to over a dozen aircrafts but can he be said to own one? Wisdom is profitable to guide. Stop the lies.
favor914: My Guy any development you see was done under the banner of APC, any credit for Obaseki, is credit for APC, Obaseki should point to any project executed under Pdp for us to compare?
Sorry is your name. So sorry for your loss already. I weep on your behalf. Edo no be Lagos!
