Edo state should develop on their own and stop looking for who to drag back or front.

The governor should face the challenge he met and stop all these old mentality.

pain yeebos

No wonder nnadi kanu is claiming urhobo and itskerri as Biafra, landlockness isn't good

praise010:
Nairaland Politician.

Go and ask the former Governor of Bauchi State that happened when he said that Christian votes from a local Government is inconsequential.

We have seen governorship elections won with less than 5,000 votes and you are saying Muslim votes are inconsequential.

Say no more sir

oga stop ranting Edo state isn't in the north or north central, we are in the south.

Muslims including outsiders residing here make less than 20% of the population so how are they going to influence any Election?

Favor99:
My brother it’s One Nigeria. There’s nothing like Bendel or Imo or Osun, were one nation
So lets not divide ourselves

But I admire what Obaseki and Edo/Delta States are doing in joining to develop our people’s skill sets and to make them even more marketable in the job market

Hip hip hooray to our governor

I think you haven't been in Nigeria for a long time. You've no idea how things have changed

indigenous234:
Bob Izua's park, besides the central mosque was marked down for demolition so, the believe is that the central mosque will be brought down too since its on same space with the park. Seems the government doesn't want to alienate Muslims votes so they've been looking for a way to demolish the park without touching the mosque.

it's not about the votes, I think obaseki don't want too look as insensitive.

Muslims votes are inconsequential in Edo state

Oshiomole shey you dey hear? No single Edo money will ever reach your pocket again. Time of chop and let others chop is over

indigenous234:
How was the central mosque issue resolved? Will the mosque be relocated? Anything short than that, while Bob Izua's park is demolished will be seen as witch-hunt by most Edo citizens. Especially after his other buildings has been demolished.

Our wake and see governor, carry go jor. ...

The Edo State Governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki, has assented to a bill establishing the state’s skills development initiative, EdoJobs, as an agency, as part of moves to deepen government’s commitment to expanding opportunities for skills development and jobs creation for residents in the state.

Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki
Obaseki noted that the state government is fully committed to providing more opportunities for youths to make positive choices, adding that Edo State is collaborating with Delta State Government to set-up a Bendel Development Commission to serve as a platform for the joint development of Edo and Delta states.

Speaking while commissioning the Centre for Edo Delta Development Initiative (CEDDI) Skills Acquisition Hub in Benin City, the governor said he signed the bill establishing EdoJobs Agency on May 31, 2019.

He assured that resources would be deployed to enable the agency to develop more skills acquisition centres across the state, noting that there are about 537 registered skills acquisition centres in the state with many of the centres not able to bridge the skills gap in the state.

“The state government will be taking a holistic look at the whole issue of skills for jobs in Edo,” he noted.

Obaseki commended the Iyase of Benin, Chief Sam Igbe, for initiating the CEDDI skills acquisition centre, adding that investing in human capacity was the way to go in repositioning the Nigerian economy.

He said his administration would separate the junior secondary schools from senior secondary schools so that the former would focus on vocational training and skills acquisition.

The Iyase of Benin and General Grand Beacon of CEDDI, Chief Sam Igbe, urged parents to assist their children in planning and building credible career paths as well as making choices that will enable young people become entrepreneurs or more employable in future.

He noted that the beneficiaries from the centre who have completed their training have established their businesses and become employers of labour.

Chairman of the occasion, Chief David Edeberi, said through the CEDDI initiative, many persons have been trained in various trades. He congratulated Chief Igbe for the initiative, which has helped in alleviating poverty in Edo and Delta states.

The Supervisory Beacon of CEDDI, Mr Nosasu Edigin, said the Non-Governmental Organisation was established in 2012 to combat poverty and diabetes in Edo and Delta states.

Edigin said the NGO promotes skills acquisition and embarks on awareness campaigns on diabetes in Edo and Delta states.

At the event, Captain Hosa Okunbo was inducted as CEDDI’s new Grand Beacon, as he called for the creation of empowerment opportunities for youths to succeed in life.

sogodihno:
u are senseless, go and check the prosperity of SW before the discovery of ur useless oil. one of the tallest building in Nigeria(cocoa house in Ibadan) was built with cocoa money. to hell with u and ur useless oil. Tank God oil is becoming useless globally.

if I charge my phone later in the day. I will open a thread about oduduwa land including Edo. Most people are ignorant

dokyOloye:
Junk journalism as usual.
Oyibo journalists will go ahead and give u a brief biography of the Onyeagocha man,how he came about being a Bayeslan,esp as Onyeagocha is a core Igbo name while Bayelsa is a total Ijaw state.

bayelsa is not a total ijaw state

bakar007:
There ijaws terrine there check Ur facts in ikpoba okha , being minority doesnt make u non existing.
A few re multiplethic no doubt ,try to get Ur facts before coming back to comment

so because Igbo people are present in alaba and computer market in Lagos state so that automatically makes it their land? Their are various Hausa and Igbo or Yoruba settlement in different states across Nigeria, you don't see them dragging the land with their host
