Unigrad:When they asked him on arise TV if he wants to become a senator. He said no. He said he wants to teach.....lol Dude no sabi play politics sef. Oshiomole pushed him too much to the wall. He only fought back when he had no place to go |
Eat food with a ratio of 4:1 Carbohydrates 4 and proteins 1. Work out. Try do 50 pushups every day. You can do 20 10 20. Do some squats also for your legs. Don't forget to always eat. Eat more than 3 times a day and sleep also. At night. Reduce the masturbation |
What kind of handwriting is that na Jesus. A professor or a Kg 2 pupil

backbone503:It was a faction of the APC in Edo state that drew Oshiomole hand on Obaseki. They have all been buried now, with their master |
backbone503:If you mean the defection then you're right in a way. The APC rejected Obaseki and the PDP took him in and Edo people gifted him and the PDP an extra 4 years to pilot Edo affairs |
backbone503:How can you say Edo is a gift 84000 gap does it look like a gift to you |
That University was built with Edo money. That university is just bearing Edo University, but most of the funds go to Oshiomole. The university was the first cause of the crisis. Edo's don't know the true state of the university. There are so many mystery surrounding the ownership and people kept asking Obaseki. When Obaseki dared question Oshiomole about it, wahala started. So it's a good thing he has done. Renaming it is a step to tell us it is Public university |
Obaseki was a movement that brought everyone out. Everyone, I mean Everyone. My sister for the first time in her life went out to vote. My dad and mom quarreled because she accused my dad of misplacing her PVC. She said if Obaseki looses, she won't be happy. That Tinubu video was a nail. The average Edo man is proud. Very proud. How can somebody in Lagos just be poking nose in Edo business. It was an insult. If you live in Benin, you will know that the Benins are so proud. The election was Edo people vs whoever was against them.

Forget whatever they tell you This is the real reason Obaseki won

As an Edo indigine, I have seen various commentaries talking about various factors that led to the victory of Obaseki on the 19th of September. However, very few have spoken about the role the Diaspora played. The very first prominent group to support Obaseki for reelection bid were our Edo brothers and sisters abroad. It is no doubt that Edo state has a very large diaspora family in Europe, from Italy to France and Spain and many other European countries. Another community is also in Canada. This various communities all supported Obaseki. This was the very first time in Edo history were people abroad took charge of the electoral process. Before the campaign started, we were seeing campaigns of Edo people in Europe on social media. They printed their own T-shirts and caps. They campaigned in various places. They even appointed someone in Benin to be in charge of their campaign and they channeled all the funds to him in Benin. You could see their bill boards everywhere in Benin. One group was reported to send #15 million naira at the beginning of the campaign. For people outside, many would wonder why were they involved so much even when they weren't going to vote anyways. The answer is simple, Land reforms. During he the first quarter of Obaseki government, HRM Oba of Benin made a pronouncement banning a group called community development association (CDA). These groups were a group of people mainly youths who sold community lands at high prices for individuals and charged various sums for an individual to start buildings. They're wat people in Lagos call Omonile. They could even sell one land to 3 different people. Most Edo people abroad were the ones who suffered the most from this. Because they were abroad, if they bought lands in Benin, before they came back, these CDA would sell their lands out again. Even the police could not stop their menance. So when the Oba made a pronouncement about it, they were quickly targeted. One of the CDA chairmen wanted to defy the order of the Oba of Benin, they called him Ebo of Amagba. He was the wealthiest of the various CDA chairmen. The Oba brought him to the palace and he was punished. The chairman was made to sweep the palace ground every morning for days. Immediately, Obaseki galvanized the House of Assembly and It was signed into law and CDA was abolished and made a criminal act. This very act brought peace to land owners and prospective ones. The Diaspora loved this act. They fell in love with agbero abolition in Benin because most of these people in diaspora had their relatives as bus drivers and market women. These government policies won their hearts. When the Diaspora groups drummed support for Obaseki, the APC took them for granted. They came on TV and said that they were inconsequential to the Edo election. They said their voice doesn't matter because they're not on ground to vote for their candidates. They publicly took that group for granted believing Oshiomole would do magic for them. The reality was that the Edo people at home, had at least one family member in the Diaspora. The APC forgot that these people abroad regularly sent at least $70 to their family members for their up keep. They forgot that these people abroad were the ones majorly building houses and buying properties in Benin. They were the ones sending buses from Europe to Benin for transport. The APC looked down on them. If I feed you, and housed you, to a very large extent I will control you. The people in diaspora literally told their family members to vote PDP and the local APC here acknowledged it. They told the media that you had people who came to vote and they said that their brother abroad told them to vote PDP. I think more Nigerians abroad should participate in the electoral process. The Jews abroad are very influential in the survival of the Jewish state. Don't see it that since you're outside the country, you have no stake, you do. Your voices can change the outcome. And I hope that someday the Diaspora can be able to vote in our local elections.

Think9ja:It is completed |
APC are still in shock. Buhari has given them shock syndrome. It's now they're realizing what happened. |
Mylove55:Okay he didn't rig in Edo. North abi Lol You Guys re still in shock |
One4me:Oshiomole and Ize iyamu does not recognize him as chairman. The chairman they recognized is from my Local govt. His name is Col. Imuse and PDP beat him very well in our local government with a 10,000 margin. Oshiomole destroyed the party in Edo state |
ODJ124:You typing from Ijebu ode |

Go and look at my formal post If Edo people dy talk, make una no dy tell us another. Yoruba people in the south west should learn to mind their business. We said we are going to demystify Oshiomole We are going to retire him and destroy Ize iyamu. We no be cowards here Oshiomole rode on our good will to prominence. We hyped him. He has misbehaved and we have destroyed him. If we could destroy Anenih, who is Oshiomole. Same treatment waits even Obaseki if he misbehaves......This is Edo state. We have no Godfather We have only God the father and next is our Oba. 4+4.......Ogbane I full blooded Esan. From Esan west, go and look at my result... |
This is the result.... It's crazy I swear. E just dy one kind. The results from Edo north are slow. They're not uploading
|
pafra:Don't be like this How can you say Obaseki didn't do 3 projects in Edo north. This is pure lie. Stop lying. |
pafra:It was only 4 years. What else do the Etsakos want. They had their son there for 8 years. They now another of their son as deputy governor. What else do they want. Are they the only local government in Edo. They should calm down.....and please I know Obaseki constructed some roads there. In Auchi and Agbede. There are other projects I don't know of. Let Obaseki win insha Allah |
pafra:I have always stressed it. Edo north will decide it. Obaseki is doing well in the south and central. But you see Edo north. Especially the 3 Etsako.... Doze guys are somehow |
athaboi:God bless you. Rig your strong hold massively. I told my dad this morning, that if I was Obaseki I would focus my rigging in Edo central. |
Reader530:Orhiomwon is where the APC candidate comes from. The real rigging will take place in Edo north. Where Oshiomole votes |
He never left APC before |

TAO11:The old man who told me about Izoduwa is dead now. He barely spoke pidgin. He was not formally educated. He told me this story in a village called Evboesi in Ohrionmwon. Evboesi is more closer to Abraka in Delta state than it is to Benin city. So this old man never read any history books and there was no press conference way back in 70s. These were folklores that were passed down from father to children. Whatever Europeans wrote about us was what they heard from us or observed when they came to us. But it doesn't change the fact that they still can't know the history of our people better than us. |
TAO11:If you notice I am only talking about the Ogiso Ere issue you brought up. You believe everyone here has time to argue on this forum like you. There is nothing to gain from it. Yes I have read several books. I spent my undergraduate holidays at the Benin Institute just behind the Oba Palace in Benin reading books. I have read history books at the University Library in Uniben and the one in Sapele road. I have read so many online materials also. I have been to Villages and I have sat down and listened to old people with no formal education tell stories about Ikaladehran way back as far as 2008 even before I entered this forum. I have nothing to gain arguing with you. Enjoy yourself |
TAO11:So a foreigner now knows my history more than myself. You're clearly trying to link Benin people and Ife people together. That's what you're trying to do. Because if you're saying the 3rd Ogiso was from Ife, Igodomigodo was just starting then. You guys have moved away from the monarchy to the Benin people. Remain in your State and keep spewing this rubbish history. Na you sabi. We will teach our kids what we wish, you teach your kids yours. |
TAO11:Oga Benin traditions does not say it. Stop referring me to a Russian historian who probably quoted another source. The only connection between Benin and Ife was during the Evian/Oronmiyan era. Please stop saying rubbish. |
Etrusen:No dy argue with that guy. Somebody who just said that Ogiso Ere was from Ife. You suppose know say the person dy argue blindly. Cc: Areafada |
favor914:The way you keep talking on this forum shows you don't live in Edo. How can APC own Edo state when since 2015 PDP has been in control of 2 senatorial seats out of 3. PDP has 4 house of Reps and APC has 5. Does this look like a state that APC has. Buhari lost Edo state twice both in 2015 and 2019 yet you keep saying APC owns Edo state. See ehn, you are one of those paid afonja people here talking rubbish. E go shock you I swear, you go weak |
