“Some of those that defeated us are sitting here. We know we are a developing country but we respect our country, otherwise, with the use of the army, the police and the rest of them, we could have overrun you. We just wanted to show that we are humane and we are Nigerians. We will continue to do our best.”

He doesn’t mince words together,he said it as it were.

We all are living testimonies to what happened during Obasanjo’s time,even Jonathan in Ekiti if not who is wike and co to be bragging in face of federal might but hey this man is decent however baba a lot needs to be done in aspect of security.

Bring on board new service chiefs for their fresh experience.

He couldn’t satisfy the tax collectors hence they denied him his ambition.

When he was offering delegates 200 thousand naira the other aspirant offered 2 thousand DOLLARS with the help of a governor.

Give PDP members dollars and they give you their family as slaves.Spits! nothing good has ever come out of the party.

I wish the deputy governor all the best even as the ZLP he is going is supporting Aketi already.

Please ask one of my best governors in Nigeria,Ebonyi state governor to teach you developmental skills and stop all these Nnamdi kanu and ipobs bullshit....

Is there anyone that one hasn’t insulted?

Two women caused this nonsense!

One use to shout there is God another is in Supreme Court.

The worst mistake anybody or a group of dubai strategists can make is to blackmail this decent man and one of best technocrats we can find in Nigeria.

SmartProf:
Oga Tinubu, OBJ has written his own condolence message, pls use your own words to write your own. Don't criticize OBJ cos everyone is entitled to his/her opinion(s). You can't force kind words from someone no matter the circumstance. With what we've been told about what the late senator's past dealings were as alleged by the USA, I hope this your sudden defense of him is not a case of 'birds of a feather flock together' .

Oga your comment is higher political,see i don’t know your tribe but in yoruba land we don’t speak ill of a dead person eventhough the person was a devil when on earth which i thought baba Obasanjo should have known better but i think baba as well spoke from personal view which shouldn’t have been so.

I thought they were friends by the way because i have a friend who work in kashamu’s hotel on victoria island where they use to chill together then.

PDP is just making useless noise

The man is standing trial because he was given giveaway from money meant for arms and ammunitions.

The last time i checked the case has not been withdrawn even after joining APC. So why the noise?

seanfer:
Obaseki’s Grandfather betrayed the whole kingdom, for his selfish reasons. There’s a movie called 1897 Invasion look for it and see how it happened. Or look for books about Benin empire 1900- 1950.

I watched it on Netflix several times

Trybe tv just showed it last night probably to campaign for APC

I cried for that king that was banished and benin people.

Asababoi2:
Did anyone see this?

I saw it ooo and i was like....

We need Benin sons and daughters to enlighten us on this.

akure1stson:
pdp practicing social distancing

No they are too arrogant not to give honor to whom honor is due by removing their caps in the chamber of one of most prominent kings in the country.

Did they practice social distancing on campaign ground?

Kittex7:
Bribe things
Mouth wey Don eat sweet Plantain can't speak the truth.. Yeroba adage

Point of correction,no tribe is called YEROBA in Nigeria we have YORUBA!

I wish i can be so intelligent,eloquent and humble like this man of God.

But why do we have fake news everyday on Nairaland?

Igbochief001:
U don't have to defend everything ...now see the rubbish u wrote

Edo people I know are one of the most confident people in Nigeria .... bringing Tinubu is a mistake ask any ede person go to Twitter ...it's a mistake

Tinubu got this one wrong accept the fact

So Obaseki got it right when he went to the house of assembly with touts destroying the place in the name of renovation he didn’t do for the past 4years.

Oga leave mata for mathias!

Sept.19 is around the corner.

We need the knowledge and political experience of people like this to transform Abia state for good.

Ategberoson:
how does what you said change him from being sycophant? how can someone who you claimed not to be sycophant threatening his aides with sacked if they criticize Buhari in a Democratic settings ?


how does his intelligence not vindicate his observance about how woefully the service Chiefs had performed? anyway you might be a sycophant too, sycophant like to defend themselves

My comment on this topic is that the service chief have overstayed enough to be sacked and one thing you must note is that everyone is entitled to his/her opinions,so that is not enough to insult the person.
Do you mean insulting the president or any Governor regardless their performances change any thing positively.

If your own definition of sycophancy is stopping your aides to be insulting the president then i think you are the sycophantic sycophant here.

Note again i am not defending him because he doesn’t even know if i exist but i admire his infrastructural development in Ebonyi state.

Ategberoson:
presidential candidate talk. I remembered his abuse Buhari and get sacked




Igbo get first class In sycophancy after Hausa people

I don’t think he is a sycophant,he is a friend of Buhari presidency and he has been getting all necessary support of the government hence his achievements.

He is an engineer so dude is very brilliant and intelligent.

One Governor i respect his achievements in Ebonyi state.

But sir you are wrong on this.

Those guys have overstayed their welcome.

Yankee101:
If it's free and fair APC won't win any other election in naija

It's been 5 years of hell

As if Nigeria hasn’t been “hell” (to borrow your language) before the 5 years.

Make we hear word jor

seanfer:
If the house choose to impeach Obaseki nothing Wike can do to resist it.
We can still remember how Wike and Mama Peace supported 5 lawmakers against 27 in rivers during Amaechi’s tenure.
Also how Wike and PDP famously told the whole world that 16 is greater than 19 during the Governors forum election in 2014.
PDP also says 7 was greater than 13 in Ekiti during Fayose’s reign of terror.
Wike didn’t resist his party then, now that the odd is against PDP he’s claiming victim.

Don’t mind them,they haven’t see anything.

If not that we have President that doesn’t dabble into party politics the wike man himself should have known what befell him infact himself and Patience that brought him to power will together be in court now.

SmartProf:
[b]Anytime Wike passes a message, the BP of APC leaders & members use to rise cos he doesn't pass empty threats. [/b]Obaseki and his deputy are solid on the ground and the Edo people have planted them like Iroko to be their governor till they get tired. Allow the APC guys display like students on rag day, but if they overstep their bounds, they will know that Edo is not Lagos.

Like seriously?
Are you playing,joking or being sarcastic?
The fact he always try to make noise or do some funny stuffs in rivers state make him a threat?
Someone that cannot even handle ATIKU in the place he calls himself landlord is the one you call threat?

That is why i have respect for president Buhari because he won’t even drag himself with a small boy that is being helped to power because he wouldn’t be making noise like this if its Obasanjo.

Apart from Alamieyeseigha that is dead ask Fayose,ibori how they were dealt with.

First, he sponsors hoodlums to deface, indeed destroy, parts of the House of Assembly Building in Benin, feigning the building is undergoing renovation. Then, he imports sand and gravels to prevent access to the assembly complex. In effect, the man has spent state funds to thwart the very apparatus of the state government he was sworn to uphold. He has squandered public money to defeat the very will of the public. This is tragic beyond words".

Have been wondering too why didn’t he do renovation for the past four years?

Why is he even at the house of assembly directing hoodlums to be destroying the building.

Mr.Malami is being proactive for the first time.

First mission about to be accomplished!

Second on the way.......

We warned Egungun to be careful...express no fit am

It is evident that it a low budget show...���

Heffalump:
They were installed by Oshiomhole himself, and from day one, were bent on carrying out the hatchet plan for their godfather. This is the aspect of truth that not many people knew about.

But he should have allow them to be inaugurated by issuing another proclamation instead of the one of that night party as advised by the AGF and NASS then lobby them as usual but he didn’t taking wrong advice.No matter the secret or what might have transpired between him and the person that indirectly made him governor,he goofed.

Gbam!

Beautiful scene!

Wish Edolites all the best

Kriss216:
I hate oppression hence my loyalty lies with Obaseki.

I have been noticing your comments which always end with

“Shame on Ambode” meanwhile those are your opinions however you said you hate oppression,so my question is that were the 14 house of assembly members not oppressed?

It is also a shame that 90% of what came out of your mouth during the interview is Oshiomole even when the AIT man asked for your candidates manifesto,still Oshiomole,it was a shame of an interview.

Well i still blame Oshiomole for not supporting Amaechi against you in last year elections.

favor914:
Stupid Governor, you have a judgment from The Federal High Court Port Harcourt, doesn’t Benin have its own Federal High Court?

That is where judgments can be easily bought,just buy a range rover for the judge and go to sleep.

OP your tittle is misleading nah
