Shatap....who won Edo North?

The results are there. Go and check. Politically, Oshiomole is king of the North. Well, for someone who is oblivious of who won Edo North, how do I expect you to know this?

If you think this is the end of Oshiomole politically, you're in for a rude shock. One way or the other, Oshiomole's hold on his zone(Edo North) is still very strong and in the scheme of things, he's still a strong influence in Edo politics..... Unlike a certain Chief Oyegun. I'll expect Oshiomole to leverage on his hold in Edo North and use it as a base for a political comeback. All these analysis and stuff sef nor change the fact say Oshiomole no fit suffer again for him life and he still has enough influence to fix people in positions both in Edo and outside Edo. Abeg make I leave here go hustle how me too no fit suffer again for this life

The way things are, Obaseki will most likely lose a free and fair election but me can tell you he isn't ready for that and so, he's ready to lose an arm and a leg to rig this election...... That's if he doesn't have his way with the judges handling the APC's candidate's eligibility case. Anyhow, na dem dem. May the best rigger win

Shioooor

And after this, they'll return to the trenches..... And, all is fair in love and war. This is war. My advice, let them fight their war themselves. No politician go use me catch cruise

mamotalk:
try and make enquiry about the others you chose not to witness

How about You tell me about his achievements in sectors other than the aforestated ones?

mamotalk:
so it's only in Igarra and Ososo that Governor Obaseki mentioned his achievements? don't be over narrow in your bid to bring up what suit your narrative.

Well, I'm talking about the ones I witnessed. Generally, Obaseki has spent more time talking about how Oshiomole said Ize-Iyamu is a thief and how he's fighting to end Godfatherism than on his achievements for four years. I don't expect you to agree with me but I'm an Edo man and Obaseki has performed below standards in all spectrums bar payment of salaries and basic education. If you disagree, I'd be waiting for your response that's backed up with verifiable proofs

mamotalk:
you may not be a politician but your words portray you as a person who is tilted towards APC.

one thing I can't argue with you is that Oshiomole gave his candid view in 2016 about POI and Governor Obaseki to the best of his ability.

If you had followed the campaign train of Governor Obaseki with objective mind, I think by now you should have seen and heard a lot about his achievements but maybe you decide to close your eyes and ears to the strides that's why you are saying he should list his achievements. I will advise you to monitor the visual and audio display on the erected board because as the campaign chairman said, focus will be on replay of the campaign clips in addition to the honest testimonial of Adams Oshiomole.

Just shut it already. I really didn't want to talk but this your comment is riddled with soo many falsehoods I had to reply. Obaseki always campaigning with achievements? I'll give you an highlight of his campaign to Akoko Edo. In Igarra, all he could count as achievement is the fact that an Akoko Edo man was appointed as Chief of staff, another as deputy speaker and yet another appointment for another. In Ososo, all he could do in his campaign was lampoon the member representing Akoko Edo constituency 2 and the deputy speaker who happens to be from the community of collecting 40 million to support Oshiomole. Well, you can say what you want. We in Edo know what's up

Thanks

Someone please come to my aid. My one month old Nokia 5.1 plus is seriously hanging and driving me nuts. Most times, I'm scared to open the camera and other apps. Has anyone experienced this? What's the possible solution?

This is funny. Is someone getting scared? Man, why not concentrate on your campaigns and stop crying wolf when obviously, there is none?

Happy birthday madam Ex-speaker. Truth be told, this woman no do worse than her fellow legislooters. Hers became sensational because she was a woman. In all, Nigeria's history cannot be written without a mention of her name

VirginFinder:
Keep deluding yourself. Anybody who speaks and bears Yorubas name from Edo state is Yoruba.

They could easily have been from Ondo state. It's all boundary issues. They were probably so enmeshed in Edo communities that it was difficult carving them into Ondo.

There are also Edos and Ijaws from Ondo state. Nobody claims them as Yoruba.

The Yoruba communities speak Yoruba as first language. Some don't even speak/understand Edo.

I don't know why you Edos like lumping everybody from Edo state as Edo by tribe. That is wrong!

Many years ago(16/17 years ago) there was an agitation by Yorubas from Edo state about their plight. It was in the papers.

See, just shut up. I'm from Ososo in Akoko-Edo local government area. Over 50 percent of the people in this place have Yoruba names or surnames.... But, we ain't Yoruba. We've never been and we'll never be

Like this ehn, Obaseki is now fighting on two fronts. The plan is to get his hands busy....

Didi2d:
Imagine!!!
Fighting Edo sons, sponsoring petitions against Edo sons for them to loose vital position in Nigeria.
I can never support such a person

God bless you

Kindledlight:
That is Akoko Edo right? That campaign was an eyesore.

LOL..... Why won't it be an eyesore when he had nothing to campaign with?

benzion72:
Why not treat issue and facts before edomanship. Your state is indebted and it was contracted by no other man than Oshiomole. Let the best Governor in the world become governor he cannot do anything except paying of salary and servicing the loans and most of this loan are stolen by your former governor to enrich themselves Mr. Balderdash

Well, u don't have one vote on September 19.... Was Edo not in debt when Adams came in? Did he use that as an excuse? Bros, na when person no perform he go dey look for excuses

Didi2d:
You're correct man, he ain't fighting anything called godfather and the funny thing is he also claim he doesn't want share money to the godfather and his boys but the same man went to PDP to share millions.
Also I still can't understand why obaseki and shuiabu will go that far conniving with some greedy politicians in abuja to unseat their own our own son as national chairman of APC, that alone is a big lose for Edo state in the present politics in Nigeria

Not forgetting that he sponsored petitions against Odubu when he was appointed NDDC chairman simply because he wasn't in his camp. He's fighting Godfatherism but he's himself now a godfather. He's fighting Godfatherism but he would have still been in APC if they gave him option of first refusal or allowed for indirect primaries which is less democratic

benzion72:
Where will he get the money to engaged in new project when he is paying the money borrowed by Oshiomole for the projects. Most Governor are paying back loans and just paying salary, even If Iyamu get their he can do nothing, because Edo has been borowed out by Oshio Baba

"Edo State: This is the 8th State with the biggest debt accumulated in the country. Edo State’s domestic debt stands at N88.3 billion, with IGR puts at N28.4 billion. This means the State IGR only covers 32% of the domestic debt only. In total, Edo state owes N171.2 billion."

Will u spare me that balderdash? Firstly, are you an Edo man? If you ain't, then abeg move ahead

Didi2d:
Lol, in fact she is so sure APC will win the general election, but I can understand her assumption as APC member, though I support APC too but i need unbiased information

It will definitely be a tough one. And to be honest, me and many people I know won't vote for PDP because of Obaseki. Forget what you read in the papers. Obaseki hasn't done anything.... And his so called fight against Godfatherism is juat a ruse to cover his non performance

Didi2d:
OK, keep us updated. Am in Lagos don't really know much but anytime I need any info regarding the election I will call my cousin in Auchi

Your cousin in Auchi will tell u APC holds an edge. Oshiomole has Afenmai land on his side

atemi01:
Obaseki cannot win Edo South cos majority of the Assembly members he refused to inaugurate are from there. How will or can a governor that denied majority of Edo people fair representation in the state house of assembly win? Edolites are seriously waiting for September 19th

Well, that's another thing. Overall, I can't predict Edo south.... But for the North and Central, it will be shared.

Didi2d:
It seems you're on ground in Edo state? Pls I need first hand information and not a biased one.
Pls, what do you think about the coming election, who do you think will win?

The Election will be a hard fought one for both parties. I haven't been to Edo South since Covid started so, I don't how things are shaping up over there. In Edo North, APC hold sway and they'll Coast to victory here. Edo Central has traditionally been a PDP stronghold and this election will only witness them consolidating their hold in the area. Which makes everything boil down to Edo south which also have the highest number of voters.... And unfortunately, I really don't know anything about Edo South politics presently apart from hearsays

Afolabimills:
the question is na oshomale the one contesting?why is he bent on causing more harm n destruction to his own people?

Did you ask this same question when he virtually did all Obaseki's campaigns for him in 2016? Did you ask this question when Oshiomole virtually carried Obaseki on his back to Osadebey Avenue?

Lol..... Well, PDP didn't capitalise on that then na. Say what you may. Obaseki has disrespected the revered Oba of Benin..... Na the one wey dey ground we dey talk bros

Lol. Someone should help me tell Kola Ologbodiyan that elections are not won on the pages of newspapers. While PDP is busy holding press conferences, APC are reaching out to the people at the grassroots. I hope ya'll don't shout about rigging when the results are announced. They say Obaseki has turned Edo to London..... Yet, he has nothing to campaign with. In Oshiomole's 2012 campaign, he didn't even have to talk. D projects were visible even to the blind. The other day, Obaseki was in my community for campaigns.. Dude had nothing to point to in my hometown and indeed the full local government area.... He resorted to propaganda about how someone asked him to give him 100,000 dollars for support, how a certain someone is supporting Oshiomole because he gave him 40 million. Like, come on bro, this ain't what we asked na. I even had an interaction with the personal assistant to the deputy governor and that one can't point to any Obaseki's achievement. Na to pay crowd to attend campaign? Masquerade wey comot welcome am na 100k

Mmm

Camp A blames camp P, camp P rebrands and the blame and throw it back to Camp A. Me I'm tired o. The choices open to we Edolites are too hard to pick from. Do we pick an Obaseki who performed below the standards set by Oshiomole in his first 4 years and would definitely do worse in his second term? Or do we vote for an Ize-Iyamu who was SSG to the worst government in Edo history? As for the other candidates, e be like those ones just want make them put am for their biographies say them first contest for governorship

The explanation Amaechi gave is very logical and thankfully, we are actually seeing the fruits of all the loans.... Unlike previous governments that collected loans and had nothing to show for it. Take it or leave it, Amaechi has been the best transport minister in Nigeria..... Whether your hatred let u see am or not no concern me
