slivertongue:
you don't have to quote me on every comment of Edo State. Say yours ok

I have to when you contradict yourself.i can agree with you that pdp deserve to win plateau based on some factors but you also have to agree that pdp will lose Edo based on those same factors.you cannot shift the goalpost or play double standard.be consistent

sleek214:
Clowns

Asue is the real clown

slivertongue:
professional politicians and patronage

Those around obaseki are what

Perostick:
the chair should go and tell national chairman of PDP that if he doesn't remove wike from PDP he will resign.
If orbih like he should support apc.
All I know PDP will surely win next election in Edo state.

APC is winning sir

vowiski:
Can’t wait for the useless legacy group to be disgraced and silenced once and for all.

The silent majority will reply with their thumb….

With the way people are rushing to APC, where will the guy see money to work if he mistakenly becomes governor , when all the vultures have now camped in APC.?

They said Asuen has a godfather, can they open their eyes to see the people backing the APC guy? The likes of Kabaka and the overbearing Oshiomole?

Edolites think!

They are thinking that's why they want okpebholo.can asue even win councillorship primaries on his own

asobo1:
Nonsense

They will make no sense of obaseki

NwokoloOwa:
There are people who don't win elections, their popularity not withstanding.

1. Charles Idahosa of Edo State
2. David Ombugadu of Nasarawa State
3..

You guys can fill other numbers.

Ombugadu is still popular.it is not just about idahosa but what his defection and his words represent sir.stronger politicians are leaving

[quote author=kedeojo post=129700273][/quote]I thought akoko Edo are with pdp

Ulogwe1:
My brother, no politicians is exempted from this.

Even our President, one time AD-ACN-APC

What more can we say?

Tinubu never defected but was forming parties unlike obi

piriton:
Cross carpeting is not a new thing it will continue from both sides

You won't see any reasonable defection from APC

Edoblakky:
Political neophytes will read meanings to this sort of resignation. I remember in 2020, several people including commissioners and aides to Obaseki resigned before election and many thought Obaseki was going to lose. Out of the over 2.5 million registered voters in Edo, less than 500k belonged to any political party. The majority who are not in any party will decide who becomes the governor.

Oga,the indices are different.bavk then,APC was divided and pdp was united.obaseki was going for reelection and shuaibu and wike where with him.what idahosa said is what most people in Edo are saying "the next governor must be a homeboy"

Bobloco:
The worst thing that can happen to the people of Edo is to allow the APC to take over the state. Not with the candidate who failed WAEC at 36. They are better off with the PDP. The PDP candidate is more credible. 
The APC has nothing to offer. Look at what they have done to the country. It's going to be a double tragedy for the people of Edo to allow the APC snatch and grab Edo State.

Exam is not the true stage of knowledge.okpebholo is a better leader.apc has ruled Edo better than pdp so they will remain with apc

Bobloco:
The signal from APC members you mean

Lol,from Edo people in other parties moving to APC except your blind

commoditiesnig:
You're right on this

I am almost always right

Bobloco:
The people of Edo state will decide

They have as you can see from the signals.yesterdsy,akpata shut down Benin even though he just wanted to do a small walk

Gboom:
I saw some projects someone listed and done by this man called Okpebholo and no one countered the poster that he didn't do it. If such a man can be given a chance to be governor, Edo state will wear a new look with potential infrastructural development.

I don't give a damn about the political party he belongs to, I believe in competence

True,I've learnt to believe in competence and experience no more degrees.the best leaders are those that have a track record of philanthropy,private practice coupled with gocernmental experience

HIGHESTPOPORI:
The people will decide in Edo not politicians,Edo no be Lagos

Yes,Edo no be Lagos will haunt obaseki as they will reject his stooge and choose independent candidates like okpebholo or Akpata

Bishops10:
You people play too much, Because Akarachi managed to win HoR, you're now seeing him as the next Governor. He's still below 30 years, he has enough time to return to HoR, Senate and gather more momentum for Governorship later in the years to come.

There's no other better person from owerri zone except his father Charles amadi

Chai,APC is overrunning obaseki.his desperate last ditch move to increase new minimum wage is due to desperation

LP Senatorial leader rejects Obaseki’s N50m largesse, defects to APC
…as Okpebholo gets 3 SUVs, 2 Siennas as donations

By Steve Adepoju

The Senatorial leader of the Labour Party in Edo Central Senatorial district of Edo State, Chief Friday Ibhadin (Rtd), has reportedly rejected an offer of N50 million to join the People’s Democratic Party (PDP). Instead, he defected to the All Progressives Congress (APC) and was received by the governorship candidate of the APC, Distinguished Senator Monday Okpebholo.

The event, which was held in Udumoza-Uromi, Esan North East, on Sunday, follows a wave of collapses within the Labour Party’s structure across the Local Government Area (LGA) into the APC fold.

Speaking at the event, the leader of the Labour Party in the Ward, Alhaji Usman Ehibor, said they decided to move into the APC because they believe in the capacity of the APC candidate, Senator Monday Okpebholo. He stated that Okpebholo’s activities in Esanland, even before joining partisan politics, were a testimony to his potential to govern effectively. He emphasized that the impact of Okpebholo’s few days at the Senate could already be felt in Esan land.

Chief Friday Ibhadin, the Senatorial leader of the Labour Party who led the entire party structure to the APC, stated that he joined the APC because the party represents justice, peace, and unity. He explained that the decision was influenced by the outcome of the keenly contested primary election and the party’s resolve to address the cries and appeals from the people of Esan for justice, peace, and unity in the state. He announced his decision to join the APC so that they could collectively work for the victory of the APC and Senator Monday Okpebholo in the upcoming elections.

He also took the opportunity to announce that he was donating three jeeps and two Siennas to support the campaign.

Addressing the crowd, Senator Monday Okpebholo welcomed all the defectors to the APC and assured them that the APC would be their home henceforth. He pledged to work for the victory of the party and promised a New Edo where governance would prioritize the people’s interests over the interests of a select few.

He also expressed gratitude to Chief Friday Ibhadin for rejecting the N50 million offer made by the PDP to join their party. He commended Ibhadin for standing firm in his belief in the APC and its vision for the development of Esan Land and Edo State in general.

ehissi:
He set implementation to May 1st.

That means he will kick off payment himself. When Oshiomole increased his own during his tenure, he set implementation to after his left office .
Oshiomole was even owing arrears when he increased it....

So at least for now Obaseki is better than him in this regard....

Apart from that,nothing else is he good at.

misano:
That road is FG road. Okpebholo can't fix it. Nah Tinubu wan fix am. Edo people can't be deceived with that.

When okpebholo went to beg Tinubu,it was publicized and credit was given to him

vowiski:
Thank God you know Edolites are very enlightened. They know the idiot has not moved a single motion on the floor of the Senate.

The real idiot is someone that jumps from tables to chairs,holds several posts without empowering his people

SadiqBabaSani:
True

I am shocked by your objectivity

misano:
Garfield1 you see say e go hard APC to win PDP? Obaseki is always ahead.

Lol,APC is ahead.he is playing catch-up after okpebholo moved for the repair of Benin auchi and promised to reduce school fees of Ambrose Alli uni.besides,Edo people are too enlightened to be deceived

Chinjo2:
Nice one. That is how to play politics without bitterness.
Meanwhile APC refused to fix Federal Roads in Edo state because it's a PDP state.
