H8TE filled people would avoid this thread.

lexy2014:
off point. how is that related to the questions I asked?

how does having a yoruba name disqualify Akpata from winning?

was the slogan "Edo no be Lagos" coined because of Yoruba name?

I'm referring to the guy quoted not you. That guy is an hypocrite

shegzee43:
Tribal sentiments will destroy Nigeria before the economy. What is Yoruba name? What is mother tongue? That's why you have to put state of origin on a CV.

That's a man from SE saying that. I remembered when the they called others tribalist for rejecting GRV.

Putinofrussia:
John Oyegun had Yoruba name and he was governor of Edo state.

In the old era. This is 2024.

lexy2014:

Hypocrisy at play. When GRV was rejected for not being able to speak the language some people said it was tribalism.

Ezewuzie01:
It is looking like APC will win. PDP chose a man who cannot speak his mother's tongue and needs an interpreter talk to his own people, while LP chose a man who has a Yoruba name and lives in Lagos in contravention to the popular Edo slogan that Edo no be Lagos.

I thought they said they don't practice tribalism in Edo State, why should his inability to speak the language be an issue?? When Yoruba people said GRV can't speak the language some people said it's not necessary and tagged it tribalism.

So the LP candidate having a Yoruba name is also an issue? There are people from Akoko Edo who speak and bear Yoruba name. I hope when others do the same thing nobody would complain.

ollins:
Why can't Philips Shuabu move to another party?where is his thinking cap?how on earth did he ever think he could clinch PDP ticket?how?If he is smart he should have left PDP immediately The Governor went against him

He must have looked into it and see that it's probably not feasible.

RecessionistPMB:
You see what poverty has done to you. Human basic needs that ordinarily you should afford without sweating, is what you're here praising the same government that impoverished you.

Your "ebi pawa" just got started...Yeye people..

If this was implemented in one damaged region everybody would be clapping for the governor

Cruzmaster:
We are not begger like ur people. We hustle by ourself. Even when they gave us 50 ponds regardless of millions we have in our account. We Igbos still survive. U think say is this one we won't survive?? We don't need any fucking government to survive.

Those who source of livelihood is based on FAKEry definitely won't beg.

Balistic4:
Anytime they hit the masses hard, they will tell this stooge to reduce transport fare, once the hardship sits properly with the masses, he will remove it, then harder shege will be introduced, rinse and repeat


Laugh won tear my belle ooo

Children of HATE.

atiku4President:
All the knee-jerk approach by APC led government will only serve to temporarily deceive the people. The real problems must be solved which include creating jobs and enabling environment for small businesses to thrive. When are we going to have leaders that think ahead?

If it was other state governors who implemented this you'll be here giving kudos. But as usual HATE have consumed most of you.

Benwallt:
Same you that was screaming hell when APC produced 3 candidates. We indeed get the leaders we deserved. When it happens in your team, let's cover it but when it happens in the other team, let's blow it

You understand their game.

Penguin2:
Why won’t he return to Nigeria when it’s Awalokan government?

Meanwhile, Nnamdi Kanu must die in jail.

When Igbos start talking now, they will start talking trash.

Stick one side of the divide. Don't clamour for presidency in a zoo and then demand for your own country at the same time.

JuanDeDios:
Omosede wan be governor? Ok o.

She was formerly in the house of representative.

Phillip Shuaibu get mind oo, this is bravery on a different level. He might just be impeached.

aswani:
Not sure because he was the one that told the Edo North aspirants to step down so he can push an Edo south person in Denco, imagine Ẹdo South that did 8 years doing another 4 óntop.

Baba Oshio miscalculated badly, very badlyy indeed.

You don't understand the Dynamics. It would be hypocritical of him to bring in any candidate from Edo North after his own term considering he's from their too. And 2016 is not 2024. The bulk of votes is from Edo south and PDP is going to pick someone from the central. Normally Edo central don't like Oshiomole or APC, so they won't get any vote from that side. It's pointless picking a candidate from the central.
So the only way they could possibly win is to pick someone from Edo south where the bulk of voters are and then get a large chunk of votes from Edo North and that's it.

Benin people would likely go for the PDP man from Edo central if APC doesn't pick a candidate from Benin. If that senator from Edo central becomes the candidate him and Ighodalo would split votes in esan. It would left for Benin to decide I don't see Benin people voting APC except their son is on the ballot.

shortgun:
Obasanjo, Yaradua and Goodluck Jonathan all succeeded and brought progress to the country as presidents because they were all detribalized and made appointments based on merit and not based on political affiliations, religion or ethnicity.

Buhari and Tinubu failed and brought suffering and pains to Nigerians because as president they are more concerned about the religion, ethnicity and political affiliations of a person before they are given appointments, even in critical sectors of the economy.

I thought you said you don't need appointment. So why are you writing a long epistle?

aswani:
These primaries have completely destroyed any goodwill he had, his reputation is now in tatters even in Edo North.

The NWC handed him free reign for the primaries, he made a mess, they will never trust him again. His kingdom has crumbled and over what.

He's still revered in Edo North. Na where he did most his work when he was a governor.

NaMe4:
I doubt. Both of them who are not politically sagacious in the first place were the primary cause of what ensued in the last Edo Guber election. They repeated it last weekend.

If they insist on such buffoonery in this attempt to amend cracks by players at the National level, in fact, they would be ignored just as the last time.

There are more important, pressing national issues than doing the bidding of one man who enjoyed the goodwill of his people, but repeatedly insists on paying back by imposing his interest on the same people.




Pacify him?

Hope you remember how he was thrown out as national chairman a few years ago due to this his approach to politics.

Which Goodwill does Oshiomole enjoy?

Penguin2:
But just accept that your party can’t get anything right.

They failed in securing Nigerians.

Failed at the economy

Failed at organizing credible elections.

Now they can’t organize ordinary primary election.

Useless party that needs to be killed before it kills Nigeria.

I wish Labour Party can get the right candidate even though we all know that Asue Ighodalo is the next governor of Edo State.

Millions of APC vultures can’t outplay Obaseki.

LP during the day PDP at night.

Dpharisee:
If Igbos join it will be tagged IPOB and the Fulani dominated Army will be unleashed as we saw under Buhari. Do you remember how Igbos were mocked and Buhari cheered here with these humiliating and dehumanising pictures for peacefully protesting against injustice and marginalisation.

Not forgetting the killing by the Army of 'General' Ikonso (pictured below) young man who put his life on the line to protect Igbo communities from rampaging Fulani militia based on the warning by Nnamdi Kanu long before other Nigerians realised what was coming ahead now called 'bandits' which has led to the current food crisis as farming communities are no longer able to feed themselves as farmers are killed or kidnapped or asked to pay tax and ransom before planting and harvesting in several states.

Igbos have sacrificed enough for Nigeria, they are always the first targets of riots in the North with their shops either burnt or looted and never compensated by the Govt if they survive with their lives.

Please lets leave Igbos out of this, allow them to breathe

Always trying to claim to be the victim. Who claimed Buhari was dead and was replaced by a Sudanese?

DaTruths:
Yeah, that's how he got to win Rivers state. Over PDP and labour.

Any other states apart from Rivers? You can be moving from INEC rigged an election, then indirectly admitting he lost by trying to insult some voters who played a part in his defeat.

DaTruths:
Am i holding the voters?

I'm holding what they were saying.

They will teach obedients lesson, simple!

Lol you know exactly what you are doing. Obi lost simple and clear. All those cry of INEC rigged the election was a just to console una sef. That's why you are mocking some voters who sealed his loss.

DaTruths:
He was rigged out by INEC

Then stick to INEC leave the voters alone they did their job and INEC in your words 'rigged the results". When you start goading or cursing voters you are indirectly admitting they voted against Obi and that was why he truly lost.

DaTruths:
Who were the people that said they would teach Obi a lesson?

Voters or INEC?

Did Obi lost or he was rigged out by INEC?

DaTruths:
And so?

So who taught Obi a lesson the voters or INEC? We can't be moving between two ends. One moment the election was rigged by INEC in collaboration with the judiciary, the next moment some people(voters) taught Obi a lesson by refusing to vote for him, thereby admitting Obi truly lost the election.

DaTruths:
Make e reach 30k.

We must teach Obi a lesson, so that he can't afford to build any house.

I thought you all claimed the election was rigged.

Tonididdyx:
Oga STFU
What's so special in the Lagos or do I as a nigerian need a special visa to enter, live or do business in the state

... See as you dey talk about Lagos like it's Texas or kigali?
You mad or sumthin

Jealousy go kpai una. Leave the state nobody is forcing you to stay.

mastermaestro:
Labour party is shockingly not pulling any serious weight going into this Edo guber election. They have no solid frontrunner as we speak. All the parties are embroiled in bickering right, left and centre.

As it stands, Oshiomhole's candidate may end up winning the election.

What of Kenneth Immasuagbon.

OVB123:
It's right thing to do because the president prevail on him to step down from the race. It was also agreed in that meeting that the position will be zone to edo central (esan zone) for the sake of equity and the major benefactor of this is Sen. Monday okpebolo.

Then PDP would win if that senator gets it. He's from the same zone as Ighodalo, which means he might not be able to defeat him Edo State as a whole. Edo Central and Edo south don't like APC at all.

Lovemaester:
Is it the same Lagos I'm staying that you are talking about. Druggie via his puppet is looting extravagantly while commissioning white elephant projects gotten from excess loan that will not be repaid in this generation while taxing us to death.

Leave Lagos alone. You have more decay that needs to be fixed back home. Once una hear Lagos una go get erection.
