You're right Ratedgang.
Even stars and celebs as well.
But Obaseki is really changing the narratives.
If you come to Ekosodin now you'll be stunned at the level of work going on there.

That's him.
Joe Gas is his business name.

Just in front of Uptown Villa there.
No familiar faces.
They all came with the campaign train of the APC.

There's no one who lives in Ekosodin and beyond as far as to Uselu market and to ring road and New Benin who doesn't know me even to Oluku.

There's no single mosque in Ekosodin. All the Muslims worship in the central mosque in Uniben

99% of the people you see there came with the campaign train of the APC.
Ekosodin without the youths, that means you never start.
There's one APC staunch supporter during Oshiomhole tenure.
He was one of the Oshiomhole police too.
He is known as "Oshiomhole" by young and old because of his love for APC but he's not there. He has ported already.

Ekosodin is for PDP from inception.

All these faces you see here, non of them reside in Ekosodin except some few ones which i recognized very well.
Like Joseph who carries punk there with arrow and his brother out here below.
They're from Kogi state but live in Ekosodin. They deal on Gas.
I know them very well because i live here.

No single indegene here.
No single youth here.
No Francis,
No Nelson,
Where are the Iyenmoana's?
Where is Oloye?
Where is Okoro?
Where is Ehis?
Where is Akhere?
Where is Ogben?
Where is the youth chairman and his crew?
Even some that were in Oshiomhole police are not here.
And Ekosodin without these people isn't Ekosodin.
So where did these faces come from?
They were imported.
That's all i can say.

Eriokanmi:
lol. Did the federal might favour them during the presidential elections? Dem share money reach my compound sef. Make I no lie, na apc I support that time because I like buhari. Eventually, the PDP candidate won the presidential election in edo. But obaseki na our man for governorship. Had he remained in the apc, we would still have voted him because he never said he was leaving the party. Now that he has joined the family of the pdp, the traditional party in the state, we had to also follow him. This election is about personality and not party. Ize-iyamu would be disappointed to think baba would send down troop to rig for him. [b]In the past week, they were busy calling people. I didn’t know how they got my number, asking people to vote apc. [/b]In fact, by the time i began highlighting obaseki performance, the lady dropped the call sharply grin
You don't mean it?

Ekosodin people turn their back on them.

It happened last time in 2016 only for them to return with huge sums of money which they shared.

Desperate party.

Even the new Luxury buses which he purchased.
See what is going on at the Technical College.

I really don't know why Oshiomhole wants him out at all cost.

Edo 2020: Accord Party candidate collapses structure, declares support for Obaseki
By Iwok Iniobong on August 21, 2020

The re-election bid of Governor Godwin Obaseki got a major boost on Friday as candidate of the Accord Party in the September 19, 2020 governorship election, Godday Idahosa, collapsed his structure into the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and declared his support for the re-election of Governor Obaseki and his deputy, Philip Shaibu.

Idahosa announced his defection at PDP Wards 8 and 9 campaign rally in Uhiele, Esan West Local Government Area of Edo State, citing the leadership acumen of the PDP candidate as part of the reasons for his defection.

He was received by Obaseki and other members of the Edo PDP Campaign Council.

Idahosa said he has seen the good work of Governor Obaseki and so has decided to join him in transforming Edo State.

“Our governor is doing excellently well. He is a great man and he deserves to be reelected. Even the sun and the moon will cooperate to work for his favour,” Idahosa said.


“In this September 19, 2020 gubernatorial election, my supporters and I are going to work for Obaseki. I am leading hundreds of my supporters to join PDP today,” he said.

Addressing party faithful in the wards, Obaseki urged the people to vote for him and assured them of even development.

Obaseki, who highlighted the challenges facing residents of the area, promised to construct the Uhiele-Urohi-Ujiogba road.

He implored eligible voters in the area to join him to demystify the political godfather in Edo politics with their Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) in the forthcoming poll.

“I want us to use this election to end godfatherism in this state. Four years ago when I came to campaign here, this road was not constructed, but I gave it a new look which means that l can construct more roads.

“By the grace of God, when you people come out en masse to vote for the PDP, you would be releasing Edo from the hands of the godfather. If we end godfatherism in Edo, I will be able to repair and build more schools, build hospitals and provide more youth and women empowerment programmes,” he said.

Was it not last month or so?

But why have you always said he has no projects to campaign with?

You know how Uwasota road was and how it is now.
Even Adolor although it isn't complete but there's respite.
I ply these roads and others frequently.

B4 now you can only access Utekon thru Oluku but was shocked when in February there emerged a road from Ekosodin straight to Utekon.
Now as I speak and beginning last month he's already laying asphalt from Precious Palm Royal axis of Ugbowo-Lagos rd to Ekosodin,something we've already lost hope on.

In the words of Peter Torsh," Everyone is crying out for peace, none is crying out for justice."
You see, what is being said about El-Rufai today is similar to what has been said about Buhari as far back as in the 80's and 90's and beyond. Even El-Rufai himself made similar comments about Buhari too that he cannot rule a country like Nigeria. But today what do we see?
My prayer is that people should save this in their archives and remember them when needed.
