He was an economic adviser who advised on state eonomy and not consultant. So he was part of implementation too. Allocation of resources for hospital project vis-a-vis the social would have been done by him. In any case, he wasn't just an adviser, he was Oshiomole's 'personal person' then. Reason why he was made governor against odds.

are u seriously this ignorant or u are joking, chairman of economic team allocte reasources? what is the job of the commissioner of finance? have u ever seen where an economic adviser go to the house of assembly or legislative arm to defend a budget?

codedguy1:
Not that I support any of PDP or APC. But he can get the PDP ticket because of the type of useless wicked insensitive politics we practice here. Ask yourself how come Obaseki who was qualified to win as gov on APC platform suddenly became ineligible?

Ask yourself again how did ize iyamu become a front runner to clinching the APC ticket after all the things Oshiomhole said about him in the 2016 election while campaigning for this same disqualified Obaseki.

Try to analyse without sentiments.

add to that ize iyamu has an ongoing efcc case, what if he is found guilty, or has he now become innocent because he is apcs candidate?

romenna:
Op have you seen obaseki's ssce? He has only 3 credit. Get informed

they only need ssce, the number of credits does not matter.

LibertyRep:
Sure, this is politics but is there anything wrong in infusing some morals into it?

Joining PDP is one thing but snatching the ticket is another. How would PDP give their ticket to the same person they've villified and opposed in the last three years. Don't they have competent persons in their folds again.

did oshomole not call ize iyamu a thief who can't be trusted with public funds? does ize iyamu not have a case with efcc? but I don't see u convulsing over apcs screening him to contest, hypocriyes

LibertyRep:
Why should he even get the PDP ticket in the first place?
What sort of politics do we even encourage here?

Someone was disqualified from a ruling party this moment and people are already dangling the ticket of the major opposition in front of him the next minute.

Yes they have no principles and ideologies but please we can start somewhere.

ok it is apc that has principles abi? is the annointed apc candidate not a decampee from pdp who was publicly called a thief by oshomole? are u aware he currently has a case with efcc. apc supporters lack critical thinking capacity

festacman:
He was a key member of Oshiomole's kitchen cabinet and this hospital project was supposed to be Oshiomole's legacy project. So what suddenly went wrong that was initially right when the hospital was handed over to him?

he was in the economic team, he advises the governor on economic issues, implementation was not his job, same reason he was not pursuing contracts as attested to by oshomole himself

but obaseki did not appeal na, are these people confused or what?

festacman:
If Oshiomole nominated only one commissioner as Obaseki confirmed during one of the reconciliation sessions, I doubt if the problem has to do with Oshiomole not having access to state treasury. For example, refusal to open and operate the hospital built by Oshiomole has nothing to do with "access to treasury".

open hospital that had no equipment and was virtually signed away to a private firm?

babyfaceafrica:
Politics.. Obj loathes atiku.. He later supported him 2019..nothing surprising there

so? does that make it right?

LudaChriz:
Edo people should man up and retire Oshiohmole politically. No one should allow the slavery going on in Lagos to happen in Benin Kingdom

oga I can bet that should there be a free and fair election, that apc will lose, but this is Nigeria, we all know how election goes...

wonder233:
What is making me laugh is how some members of the public who aren't politicians are arguing for why godfathers should be worshipped and not fought. You hear them saying things like "loyalty" "outshining your master" etc.
The same masses who are suffering bad governance and undemocratic practices are vehemently defending their oppressors.

bro's ur point is so valid, that is y some persons are of the school of thought that Nigerians do not deserve good leadership, that the leadership of the country is a reflection of it's people.

messenger4891:
I am not a political fanatic but few questions in my mind that begs for an answer.....which certificate did Obaseki presented and submitted before winning the election? On which political platform?
...who presented him to the party and supported him until he became a governor with the stated inconsistences in the presented certificates ?.....oh God we need your intervention....oh my country!!

oga forget all that propaganda, univ of obadan has confirmed his degree certificate as authentic, if worse comes to worse he will submit only his school cert which is the minimum requirement for governorship election.

Ebenezer2021:
PDP is a miserable party with frustrated members.
They are always ready to receive crumbs just to stay relevant

is it that many of u apc supporters lack the ability to think or what? are u aware the the apc candidate being championed by the apc powers that be defected from pdp? u people should endeavor to use ur brains often. if pdp candidate defected and was given ticket, u didn't call him crumbs but because u are threatened by obaseki defecting u now call him crumbs.

busomma:
What do expect? Those who hv been nursing the party al l these while should mover over for him? That will cause problems within PDP itself. Obaseki is in a no man's political land.

did those in apc not move over for ize iyamu? or u don't know he just decamped few months ago?

sirp85:
I am not happy that PDP accepted him as their candidate. What they should have done is for them to pick their candidate to fight whoever ends up the flag bearer in APC and obaseki join another party.

apc e-rat, face your party.

athaboi:
he will submit only waec and drop the ones causing the wahala

gbam, after all even the presidency does not require you to be a graduate before you contest.

Beckyroman:
I just hope Edo state people vote wisely.

we hope for a free and fair election the the party in power does not unduely influence the outcome, if that happens, pdp is sure to carry the day, even if obaseki does not fly their flag.

Akaujaa:
Should PDP make a mistake and give Obaseki their ticket for the Edo governorship election, the way they lost the presidential election in 2015 will be a child's play compared to the the loss they'll encounter in Edo. You don't expect those faithful party men and women who have stuck with the party through thin and thorns to sit and watch a 'gold digger' come take away their opportunity. They'll just unite against the party and see to it's downfall.

it is like u apc supporters don't use ur brains, can this same argument not be used for apc, hope u are aware that ize iyamu just decamped few months back, what happened to the faithful and loyal party members who were there before?

AmazingMOG:
Hahahahaha

Failed politicians


My prayers is working for oshomole.


Nobody can bring oshomole down

If I be a man of God!

y did ur prayer not work for him on zamfara, rivers and bayelsa?

Johnjanrt:
By this one would wonder what the PDP hopes to achieve seeing that the embattled governor's disqualification was on grounds of discrepancies in his academic certificates. And to avoid the scenarios leading to the APC losing Bayelsa state. Let just watch out keeping close tabs as events continue to unfolds.
All the same I strongly remain Apolitical

oga what is the minimum qualification for contesting governorship?

Iamgrey5:
Atiku looking for allies for his 2023 not so secret ambition.

Anyways, three years is such a long time in politics for a lot to change.

I have a question for PDP members though

Where will the likes of Wike, kwakwanso, Tambual fit in scheme of things come 2023?

the same question can be asked of apc top guys, where will election rufai, tinubu, fayemi and conbe in 2023, as a matter of fact the fight that might erupt within apc will make it implode.

seunmsg:
Nigerian politicians are all the same. They join political party simply to use it as a vehicle to power and not because they are convinced about the ideologies and programs of the party.

Anyway, it’s good riddance to bad rubbish. He should go and continue with his wicked and heartless behavior in PDP.

hope u are aware that the "anointed" candidate of apc was the pdp candidate for the last governorship election? as a matter of fact oshomole decribed him as a criminal and he even currently has a case with efcc, but I guess once a person joins apc he becomes a saint abi?

michoim:
But these are his natural enemies now...why won't they fault...

are their claims false? did we not witness just days ago how tens of people were massacred by bandits? some of are truly irredeemable

Tyrone007:
Have you heard of Lagos Business School (LBS)? Pls get your facts right before making unverifiable claims.

what yardstick dolid u is to rate Lagos business school above unizik business school, is there a published ranking u can reference or u are just assuming?

AmazingMOG:

if Aregbe decamp from Tinubu side ,then I,await his new wisdom


I was wondering the new found love between El_rufai and Aregbesola...


if APC ,deny osinbajo of 2023 ticket ,then we might as well kiss them Goodbye.

and if osinbajo is not presented in any political platform ,then we will go for the one with lesser evil

so ,a thousand Aregbesola ,El rufai, fayemi can't match TINUBU.,so its better they drop their vaulting ambition.


I'm certain south wont allowed another Northerner, except ZULUM,to takeover from Buhari

tinubu will not find it easy defeating an el rufai in the core north and that is where majority of the block votes come from

a better skill would be convincing her to let u do it right there in the sitting room.

solmus:
what more does Oshiomhola want politically that he hasn't achieved?.. its Obaseki's future you should be worried about

and u think obaseki is a career politician who cannot survive outside politics? this is a fellow who before he became governor was one of the fellowship who sponsored Osho's election.
