lhordspy: Just look at the pictures emanating from of War-ravaged Bornu state.. Beautiful.
Yet, go to Non war-ravaged states like Anambra, Abia, or Enugu. And witness the declining, irritating , exiguous, miserable, , pathetic and pitiable state and conditions of the infrastructures and development there.
One may think that is Somalia not Nigeria. Bad and corrupt leaders, yet the people blame their woes on Buhari and Tinubu.
Olodo... Why u no mention Imo and Ebonyi. Na envy go finish u. Whether u like it or not, Peter Obi go become me and you next President
UGBE634: The same Igbinedion that has employed more Bini natives more than any other Edo man dead or alive, the same Igbinedion that choose to stay in Benin city and invest, employing Benin and other Edo natives when he could have gone to lagos which was obviously a better investment destination as at the time he made these investment
Igbinedion wey no carryout one single project for Edo. He's the worst Governor dead or alive in Edo and old Bendel
oikirodah: Oshiomhole Vindicated As Obaseki Allegedly Scams Philip Shaibu Of 300k USD(Video)
"All truth is good to know but not all truth is good to say"
This is an African proverb that basically means that some things are better said than kept quiet, while others are better left unsaid. Some things are also better expressed by us, while others are better expressed by others.
Some things should be said right away, while others should be said later. Some things should be said privately, while others should be said openly.
But in all of this it still remains that "The naked truth is always better than the best-dressed lie".
Many allegations surfaced prior to the Edo 2020 governorship elections that Obaseki bought the PDP ticket and gave money to the party as represented by Chief Dan Orbih and the candidate for the Edo South senatorial district, Hon Omoregie Ogbeide Ihama, in order for him to become Governor.
A video is currently making the rounds in which Chief Dan Orbih reveals the hidden truth about how much Obaseki actually spent on the PDP ticket. According to the video, Dan Orbih and the legacy PDP did not collect a penny for Obaseki, but instead struck a deal in exchange for the ticket.
However, Dan Orbih confronted Obaseki in front of the PDP governors tasked with resolving the crisis and asked him if he gave them a kobo, to which Obaseki replied that he did not, but Dan Orbih revealed to everyone present that Deputy Governor Philip Shaibu said he contributed $300,000 USD to Obaseki as part of his own contributions to the deal, the total amount of which has yet to be disclosed.
In a nutshell, Philip Shaibu was allegedly duped by Obaseki out of $300,000 USD, which Obaseki collected from Philip and kept in his pocket, according to the video. The video is attached to this article for your viewing pleasure.
If the accusations made by Philip and Dan Orbih are accurate, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, the former governor of Edo State, has been vindicated. Obaseki portrayed him as a devil and the Godfather who never wanted what was best for Edo State.
The PDP marriage between Obaseki and the party was clearly built on deception in order to retain power at the expense of the populace. Why would a sitting Governor allegedly take such large sums of money from his deputy and keep the proceeds for himself?
What traits of Godfatherism and deception can be more than what the Edo Governor has done to the party, for which he has broken promises, and to his Deputy, whom they claim he has scammed for $300,000 USD?
In this case, the public and the people of Edo State should be the judge. Obaseki and Philip Shaibu, the highest beneficiaries of Oshiomhole's administration, sullied Adams Oshiomhole's image in the eyes of the general public when all they accused the former governor of was what they appear to be doing.
Today, the PDP in Edo State is factionalized, with all of the candidates for the upcoming general election divided into two camps that are spending large sums of money on campaigns when they do not know their faith in the eyes of the electoral act.
We are clearly waiting for Philip Shaibu and Obaseki to defend themselves and save their integrity in front of the general public and the electorates who voted them into power.

If not for madness and hatred for ones country how will people see Tinubu on the ballot and go for Obi or Atiku. Any one supporting either of the last two should be held for felony
You're part of the mad fellows in this country. Certified!
I would advocate power be delivered to him in 2031 after Asiwaju Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s tenure
Southerner to retain after a Southerner and you're here criticizing Atiku for trying to retain Presidency in the North. Anyways, both of these APC men can get the Presidency. This little stipends dey really make una turn psychos
post=119472976: Labour Party and PDP are one and the same.
Sane, honest and hardworking Nigerians will never forget, only those who suffer from collective amnesia would have forgotten.
A case of Olosho wey change location.......come dey claim virgin.
Criminals and looters everywhere
Conversely, the PDP, the party that has always claimed to champion the precepts of equity, justice and southern rights and that has always prided itself on its strong southern base, has opted to give its presidential flag to a northerner.
They turned their backs on the people of the south-east who have given them more support than any other ethnic nationality in the country over the last 23 years. Be Wise True and Real Igbos.
Your candidate wey pick candidate wey get the same faith with am kwanu? Sane Nigerians say NO to Muslim-Muslim ticket
seunmsg: Peter Obi’s sheik has spoken. If you want a continuation of the banditry and insurgency, vote for Peter Obi, the number friend and supporter of Sheik Gumi. If you want to see an immediate end to the insurgency, vote for the no nonsense Bola Ahmed Tinubu. The choice is yours.
Realist12: Then they should support and vote a finance expert with wizardry skills that can complement Buhari's infrastructure centered growth. Coz Tinubu is promising to continue from where Buhari stops. Not the one that thinks and says infrastructures doesn't bring growth or the other whose only economic mantra is " sell sell " smh Isn't it ironic that we are talking of train services coming back to life in full gear in Nigeria yet championed by the man they love to hate.
They need to ditch the ethnic sentiments if they truly want the trains working for real and follow the man and party that knows the road. The sabotage is the excuse of the federal government for not being able to fund the project, so who is to be blamed?
ganisucks: Kikiki. Lawd have mercy. Una never begin beg. ANAP poll has reset this one's head. Mr Governor come and tell your boys on NL to beg. They are too proud and arrogant. They don't know that there's fire on the mountain. They are imagining 12 million Buhari bloc votes.
lhordspy: I was also surprised to see him at the central mosque today. These days he has been very distanced and disconnected from the Northern political terrain. Irrespective of his political affiliation, i will advise him to always stay in touch to avoid losing relevance, which may be of help to his future political ambitions.
My first time of meeting him though. He seems like a nice man. He just picked the wrong side.
He got paired with an hopeless political clown like Ob! from an insultive, hatefilled, children of hate region. People that can insult anyone and everyone; their kings, their parents and even their elders. People without an iota of good moral upbringing or proper home-training. Just look at them commenting below with their usual pattern
kai... May we never be unfortunate in life
Agbado urchin. You're really turning a rotten situation to a bad one
Removing the subsidy 2012 when the economy was still manageable and people still had it good would've been far better than now when the economy is so harsh and biting real bad... removing it now would be so disastrous for the common man.. It has to be done and it would've been better if it was removed long ago.
As for you people who see white and turn it into black,it is only God that will have mercy on you .
Are you referring to Tinubu as the he here or someone else? i don't recall Tinubu calling fuel subsidy a scam in the sense or recall him campaign with or without it.
Go back to 2012 and 2015... Nigerians will decide at the polls
