Politics / Re: Edo People Deserve Obaseki Again by handie(m): 9:31pm On Jul 02, 2020 |
thankless:I realize we both have our freedom to associate with whosoever we want. But, selling our home town for crumbs? That should be frowned upon. Comrade sir, what has Obaseki done for Ososo since he assumed power in 2016? Why should Ososo people vote for Obaseki? In the build up to the 2019 General election, a document was bandied about showing that provisions to the tune of 1.4 billion Naira has been made in the 2p19 budget for the Ososo Okpella road. Till this date, nothing has been done to that effect. Moreover, I heard from a reliable source that The house of Assembly member Hon. Emmanuel Agbaje dug into his personal pocket and released some funds for the survey work on this project all in a bid to fast track it. Till today, the only work carried out on the road is the survey. While Chief Nathaniel Momoh is someone I respect, I'd expect him to ask governor Godwin Obaseki about what he has done for Ososo land and while Ososo people should vote for him for a second term. Why should we jettison an Oshiomole who we know and who ensured the time spent on a journey from Ososo to Igarra is halved, who constructed and renovated several blocks of classrooms in Ososo and also appointed an Ososo daughter as a member of his cabinet to support an Obaseki who to d best of my knowledge has done next to nothing not just for Ososo, not just for Akoko Edo but the majority of Afenmai land |

Funny. If the FG/APC really want to use force in the election, the full PDP governors(Not just south south governors) can't do nada. Who dey control police and other armed forces? I hope Wike hasn't forgotten how he used the then Rivers CP to oppress Amaechi who was the governor.... Moreover, how can they possibly stop intimidation when legally, they are not supposed to be in Edo state on Election day and even if they are here, their movement will be severely restricted.....

So, yesterday, I ordered for the Nokia 5.1 on Jumia. @ 41,990. Today, the price has dropped to 39k...... A difference of almost 3k..... For just a one day difference in delivery for saving 3k ain't a bad idea. Issue now is how can I cancel the previous order? |
Politics / Re: Edo APC Primary: Obaseki As A Student Can’t Set Rules For An Examination –Mayaki by handie(m): 7:05am On Jun 01, 2020 |
Esseite:Why do u think Oshiomole's fight with Obaseki is about appointments and sharing of resources? There was a infrastructural masterplan Oshiomole had in place. Obaseki was supposed to continue from where he stopped. In four years of Obaseki's administration, the Edo storm water project is still at d stage Oshiomole left it. D Central hospital has become one of his tools for his political war. Even in road construction, he has failed. The only road he can he can proudly lay claim to in Edo state is TV road. If you ever were in Benin and Edo in general pre and post d Oshiomole's years, you'd understand my points. Infrastructurally, Obaseki has failed. His job creation moves are only seen on paper. Not trying to defend Oshiomole who's too loquacious and whose style of leadership leaves much to be desired. Even if the disagreement arose from appointments, didn't Obaseki know what he was getting himself into? Would you as an individual be happy if d Oshiomole treatment was meted out to you? Lemme tell you one fact ::Obaseki was a non entity in Edo politics prior to 2016 and all through the campaigns, Oshiomole did majority of the talking. People voted for Obaseki because Oshiomole said he's his son and he trusts him. 1 Like |

quote author=seunmsg post=90181719]Asiwaju took the right decision. Imposing Obaseki on the party at this point without going through primary election will destroy the party in the state. The best option is for all stakeholders to impress it upon the National Chairman to conduct a free, fair, and credible primary election between the two aspirants. Whoever emerge from the process should be supported by all party members during the general election. [/quote] Unless APC want to gift Edo to PDP on a platter, the only viable option is the direct primaries option. There are two factions. If there's to be indirect elections, which faction will present the delegates? Obviously, each faction will present their own delegates and candidate which will render the entire exercise a nullity. On direct primaries we stand. Obaseki should come and test his popularity within his party. What is he afraid of sef? 5 Likes 2 Shares |

His infamous Edo is not Lagos diatribe is still fresh in our memories. Not forgetting his public appearance in a press conference where he shamefacedly asked for Oshiomole's resignation.

Apart from some civil service reforms and a repositioning of the basic education sector, Obaseki has failed woefully in governance.

Apt. Like, I don't know how someone can claim to be fighting godfatherism and still be making overtures to ensure a fair and transparent manner of election is not conducted. What is Obaseki afraid of sef? Like this like this, e Don be for am. He shouldn't have gone on an all out war like that with Oshiomole. It's a high stakes game. You either win it all or lose it all.

Why on earth would a 'popular governor' be afraid of direct primaries? With the crisis in Edo APC, d only mode of election that can prevent a repeat of the Zamfara incident is a direct primary election. Why on earth is Obaseki afraid? He has d same access Ize-Iyamu and every other aspirant has to d party faithfuls. What is he jittery about? As an Edo man, truth be say Obaseki too Bleep up. Nobody knew him in Edo political circles prior to 2016. Oshiomole brought him in and practically ran his campaign for him. While I'm against godfatherism, there's what we call political patronage and Obaseki could have done that while still being his own man. But nah, he'd rather engage in an open fight with his predecessor and every party man. Imagine going as far as lobbying to have the NDDC appointment of the ex deputy governor revoked cause he is not from his camp. Would any of the so called progressive governors be happy if the Oshiomole treatment is meted to them by their successors who they almost singlehandedly installed? As for development, forget what u read online. I'm an Edo man and I can tell you for a fact that Obaseki hasn't done zilch apart from some civil service reforms and d repositioning of the primary and post primary education sectors. Infrastructurally, Obaseki is a non performer. How can anyone even be agitating for an indirect primary which is a cesspool of corruption as d few delegates selected can be easily influenced with state funds. 113 Likes 13 Shares |
Politics / Re: Senate Considers Reversal Of Power Privatisation by handie(m): 6:58am On May 20, 2020 |
Seriously, the privatisation of the power sector has failed in all it's entirety. While the immediate past president can and should be blamed for his handling of the process (He virtually handed over a sector as critical as electricity to friends and cronies without considering their capacity to deliver), it goes further than that. Honestly, the privatisation should be reversed, a new and comprehensive plan that'd involve a total deregulation of the sector with both generation and distribution in the hands of competent private entities who would be selected by a transparent and credible process with the government only playing a regulatory role through the BEDC. Alas, I know the above won't happen. D senate are most probably bringing this up cause they want a settlement from the Discos. Nigeria's ruling elites cannot be this selfless.....
