They are already in the south.

Those kidnappings and attacks on villages are these terrorists testing running their plans.

They are waiting for instructions to finally activate their cells and coordinate proper attacks.

TAYO AKPATA UNIVERSITY, EKIADOLOR; A SCAM

By Ehigie Uzamere

“All these people that won’t let me rest. Adams which school you go? Adams your certificate? Adams your classmates? Haba, na only me dem see? Anyway, make I kuku build university. I fit take am self. If I no fit, the university go give me PhD, I go dey answer Dr., who go still remember to ask me about school again. But these Benin people go talk say, State university no dey Edo South. Okay, make I tell them say I don upgrade Ekiadolor College of Education to Tayo Akpata University. Tayo no be dem pickin? They go give me chance build my university for my door mouth, abi na only Benin people; Igbinedion and Idahosa go get university?”

These must have been thoughts running wild in Oshiomhole’s mind when he announced his purported upgrade and renaming of College of Education, Ekiadolor to Tayo Akpata University, Ekiadolor. This was enough for the seven communities on whose land late Governor Ambrose Alli cited College of Education, Ekiadolor to believe that Oshiomhole was a populist governor, and not a deceitful person.
He got Edo State Assembly to hurriedly pass the bill upgrading the institution to a university as if Edo State Assembly is the Minister of Education and Federal Executive Coucil whose duty it is to give license for estabishment of universities or the National Universities Commission whose duty it is, to accredit universities.

A search will show there are, as at 5th June 2020, seven (7) universities in Edo State. University of Benin (Federal), Ambrose Alli University, Ekpoma and Edo University, Iyamho (State universities) and Benson Idahosa, Benin City, Igbenedion, Okada, Samuel Adegboyega, Ogwa and Wellspring, Evbuobanose as private universities.

[b]Of these seven, Edo University Iyamho is of interest. It was envisioned same time as “Tayo Akpata University, Ekiadolor” but nothing was done to actualize it. Tayo Akpata University came dead on arrival. Edo University Iyamho, but for COVID-19, would have graduated its first set of graduates this year. Not only were structures completed at Iyamho, the school has NUC accreditation for courses to be taught. The same Edo University Iyamho, which original dream was to be privately owned by Oshiomhole? No wonder he was in a hurry to get things done properly. But because of his hatred for the Benins, he cleverly avoided a proper upgrade of College of Education, Ekiadolor to a University or a degree awarding college.
If Oshiomhole had no disdain for Edo South and her citizens, why would he not do the utmost needful to upgrade Ekiadolor College of Education to a degree awarding College? Why name it after Tayo Akpata who served under Gov. Osaigbovo Ogbemudia as a commissioner of education, while re-naming New Era College – a secondary school, after Gov. Osaigbovo Ogbemudia, at the same period? This is yet another glaring example of Oshiomhole pitting Benin families against one another.[/b]

But this Tayo Akpata University scam would be corrected as we will do everything possible to upgrade where necessary, and see to the completion of structures at the site. We have had enough of one man’s brazen attempt at denigrating a people of zeal and intellect. We have been deceived enough.

We can not continue to have Oshiomhole sow seeds of discord among us. He keeps pitting Benin families against one another. If we cannot see through his scams and scheming by now, then we would be left with no option than to be at the mercy of the thugs he prefers to mentor. But with God on our side, we shall overcome.

Benins be wise as we tackle our common detractor – Adams Oshiomhole.
In God I trust

I pity the youths of Edo state that have no sense. Those with sense won't carry guns for politicians.

Chop their money and vote out godfatherism.

Developments that employs.

Those rats from Kano and Kaduna will be comparing their bridges and roads with these.

That's what happens when a state is under godfathers.

Dapo will settle Osoba then Tinubu before himself go steal.

The people gats suffer put.

MelesZenawi:
There was never a time biafra annex or even think of Edo state...

if you read such it is just imaginary and lies...it is fictions.


Edos are just yorubas because their history won't be complete without yorubas having a say there.

So forget all these denials....edos are full part of oodua republic.

they are your people.

olumide is an Edo and yoruba shared names meaning both are same people.

Ignorance on display once again.

Biafrans entered Mid West, changed the name, and named a Biafran as the head.

Looted CBN Benin City, held the region hostage for some months and ran riot, raped women, discrete the land until they were being slaughtered secretly by the Resistant Movement before the arrival of the Nigerian Army.

Now you come to a public forum with little or no knowledge of what went down in the '60s to spew bunkum

Edo is not yoruba neither is it your phantom biafra.

Edo and Yoruba shares the same history

Nigerians share the same history.

FOR YORUBAS

We refer to them as Edo nẹ'kure. Meaning Edo's from Akure axis.

His state ọf origin is Edo.

Son and Nephew to Ephraim and Tayo Akpata.

See finishing. Mbaka can only see vision when money is involved.

Now you know those that actually bought Skye Bank.

Their fada.

Them be wan turn clean to dirty but baba God pass them.

A coward dies many times.

Ambo should be added to our pidgin lexicon in place of mumu or coward.

"This man na complete ambo"

"Why you allow them scam you like this. U bi ambo"?

There is more to this.

The whole gist doesn't make sense unless you are owing them.

Provisions must be made available to protect these kids.

You can't hold meetings via zoom to decide on school resumption with@ putting things in place in schools nationwide.

Pusyiter:
Sweetheart, I no say you no go vote on that day abi na lie?

We full ground. We are stamping out godfatherism by any means necessary.

Asari is talking in the nonsense.

What has the stealing done for the region?

Avbe Enigie kevbe enikaro fi yeke gbue nẹ.

It's too late for these duos. This is not about PDP or APC but about stamping out godfatherism permanently from Edo state.

Edo nor bi Eko.

If a woman can accept a man that cheats back, then why not.

Ikwerre and Benin na 5n6.

Which Edo women? Them dey sweep their dirty compound and you dey yarn opartan here.

Abeg pack well!!!

INDUSTRIALFAN:
you do realize the comment you quoted was made up of correctly spelled word and the only thing there that wasn't a word is 'IPOB' as that is an abbreviation right? Don't go around fooling yourselves on public forums cos of internal racism.

Confused morons spewing vituperative jargons on here.

Ask an average gambari the meaning of IPOB? Or an average tribalist like you? IPOB has become a word and it's no more an acronym to your likes.

yarimo:
foolish IPOB newspaper with fake news photoshop

The only word an average Gambari can spell effortlessly is IPOB which they can't even pronounce.

I'm very sure she went ahead with the wedding against doctors' advice.

Obaseki's greatest mistake will be fighting Captain Hosa.

When the chips are down na family we go follow.

Abeg, go borrow sense joor! It's not a matter of APC or PDP... All Nigerians and their Politicians are messed up. Wake up, bro.

You are full of shit

APShit full of shit.
