When I tell people as a non indigene of edo state who lived there for more than a decade, Oshiomhole really tried for that state..... They come for me.


Obaseki frm reports of people who feed me daily info and my 1 year stay before I left benin, the guy no try at all

Bukola94:
F.A refs are quack & cheat

SegzyJoe:
If he is winning he won't ever say that. Nigeria politicians, they can't ever change. They can't accept defeat, they prepare for victory, but never prepare for defeat. Apart from pay salaries, 2hat else did obaseki achieved. I served in Benin Edo 20 years ago, it was flooding everywhere, today once it rained there is still flooding everywhere, I am talking of GRA , not only the slums.

senatordave1:

I still have it to pdp...it seems all the bigwigs there delivered their units..

madridguy:
The man is a big disaster to the good people of Edo State.

ALTERNATEID:


There is no point maligning people’s integrity just to make silly point. The REC of Edo state has been there long before the public fight between Wike and Fubara.

If APC wins Edo state, it won’t be because of INEC or any rigging. As at the moment, over 90% of polling unit results gave been uploaded to IREV directly from the polling units. So, why drag the REC into this?

Obaseki is an ingrate and whether you guys want to admit it or not, Nigerians don’t reward ingrates. Obaseki was a below average governor who still made too many enemies out of those who once backed him. Edo people are finally tired of him.

AGUBANZE:
I talk am yesterday say APC go win but mentions dey talk otherwise like say them dey Edo State.


Have you seen the old road and the Benin Onitsha Express? You go cry, inside this week my guy no fit travel go onitsha because Bypass done turn to ogbolo, road done maga

Nah to work and repaint ring road we go chop?

The whole Ikpoba Okha nah potopoto republic, no form or sign of governance.


PDP nah relic of the past now, until we see better opposition better than labour I am sad to say this but APC go school for this politics matter

MrHyde:
Even before possible rigging, I don't understand how Nigerians are voting for APC. I really don't.

PussyOdour:




If Edo people foolishly allows APC to hijack their state, then sorry for them. Any Party can win Edo, but let it not be Apc for crying out loud.

With the suffering the evil terrorist APC have subdued Nigerians to, them winning a state like a Edo of all states is a big slap to all Edo people.

Why will APC even have one vote in any election conducted with all their evil agendas and atrocities they've committed? God! There's no hope in sight? If APC wins Edo state of all states, then obviously Tinubu is winning flawlessly in the next election. Nigeria is cursed with fóolish citizens not just leaders.

travelzcruix:
This Ebonyi self resemble curse of poverty right from time memorial. See Abakaliki c suffer.

sparko1:
.

He did well? 🙄🙄🙄

Please, don't say what you don't know, from first term, he was bad, he only got second term because he blackmailed Edolites with Oshomole, we felt pity for him and then saw his true color.

Bobloco:


They had manufacture the news today just to give themselves some false hope because it's just a couple of days to the Edo governorship election

Lovelife433:
how will you see all the good work of Obaseki when hunger and poverty has dealt with you.

Lovelife433:
If AA need to come to Edo to inform you how evil and demonic APC is, then ur brain need to be attended to urgently. No normal human being with functioning Brain ever support APC.

Mrfixitt:
I pity the people of Edo state if they vote that calamity called Okpebolo

Typing:



Rubbish. Another MOU from the MOU Governor. The project he started in 2016 he never finish, na this tiny project he go come finish?

Shame no even allow them post the pictures of the Project

WhizdomXX:

Okay, firstly, Urhobos indigenous to Bayelsa are not few, that's why they currently produced the Deputy governor, Lawrence Egwhrudjakpor. Urhobos are also found in settlements in Ogun state and around Benin city.
Back to the matter, I believe Delta State population is about 8,000,000 ± 1.5 million. Of that, indigenous should be about 80% or >. The Urhobos should number between 35%-38% of that amount. The itsekiri should number between 4-6% of that amount. The issue is that most people increasing the itsekiri number are of Urhobo paternity and itsekiri maternity and they tend to adopt itsekiri culture even when their surname says otherwise. The evidence is there.
Total postulation :
Urhobo- 3,000,000
Itsekiri- 400,000.

Fejoku:

Keeping sentiments aside, we can boldly say that language and ethnic identity disparity between the Itsekiris and Benin means Benin has little claim to the Itsekiris and Warri. There's no argument in the role Benin played in founding Warri monarchy. Whatever royalty Benin seeks to exert on Warri is only to the extent Warri choses to remain subservient to her. Records show that Itsekiri claimed independence as far back as the 1700s from Benin. The relationship was that of a neighbour and an ally.
The Portuguese didn't seek the permission of the Oba of Benin before building a Church in Warri in the 1700s. They got it expressly from the King of Warri.
I mean no disrepect to Benin or history. However, my deductions from extensive studies on Benin history shows that despite her fame and influence around her neighbours, there was no real military might and authority she wielded over areas even considered her vassals. Not in Warri, not in Lagos and not even among the northern Edos who were raided and sold off by islamists from the north. Benin has no record of any serious warfare with other kingdoms around her except the Igalas. Her vassal claims over those territories was mostly nominal as she couldn't defend or send troops to help when they were in danger.
I summarize Benin's rise to popularity to these three points.
1. Benin was undoubtedly more organized than all the kingdoms around her. This made her state functioned better in developing their capital which attracted respect and admiration.
2. The Benin bronze castings definitely did bamboozle anyone who sees them and accord respect to the people of Benin.
3. Lastly, the notion of Benin's powerful charms and spells helped in creating the image of her as being a force to reckon with among her neighbours. Unfortunately, couldn't deliver much when it mattered most.

Wickedfact:

If you see the dilapidated state of Ambrose Alli's house in Ekpoma, you won't know he has a son who can endorse anyone.

cedricksly:
rubbish talk... Federal was APC when obaseki won 2nd term bid against APC... All Obaseki Had To Do Was WORK, If He had done all these cry for pity would not be necessary at all.. He knows he has failed as a governor.. I'm from edo state and I know this for a fact. I Careless About APC candidate also, but obaseki should keep quite he had his chance to work, which would have paved the way for his annoited predicessor.

Chetas81:
If you vote for apc government pls see your doctor,i will pay your bill

Lithiumite:


I can see ogbiede ihiama actively campaigning for APC along with shuaibu and Wike and orbih doing the clean out from within APC.

Obaseki used this same people to get his second term but they have now all betrayed him.... The fight with the legacy PDP in edo was needless then you still pick fights with your deputy and even the revered traditional institutions..... Without these people there was no way oshiomole wouldn't have eaten obaseki raw in 2020 but here he is doing same thing he did to his benefactor.....I remember very well in 2020 in the run up to the elections when both parties were called to the oba's palace.....the oba manifestly inferred that he asked oshiomole in 2016 when he was still in uselu useh performing his coronation rights when he wanted to present obaseki if he was sure about his choice considering the antecedents of his family and oshiomole assured him on obaseki then.....but obaseki has never failed to disappoint anyone as regards his flippancy and betrayals.

Lizzysamuel:
If this data is accurate, there's no way Oyo and Ekiti won't be leading, followed by Ondo and Ogun. I did my NYSC in one of these states..

Statisense I doubt this one o

EreluRoz:
From my findings from my Edo colleague she said Aisue Ighodalo is a better choice but Obaseki did nothing in Edo state and therefore spoiling things for him.

Me sitting on my native stool and in trance and consulting with one of our great formother Iyoba Idia is seeing the APC candidate Okpebelo wining this election.

Dkidd my great oba Ovonramwen nogbaisi nee Esigie nee Dkidd 😆 who do you think will win and who is best for Edo between Okpebelo and Ighodalo?

diddorimi:

See you at least Tinubu speaks proper English and even sounds like a foreigner sometimes. This Monday cannot even spell Tuesday!

EreluRoz:
Well the oba in the picture above is oba Aiguobasinwin Ovonramwen the one that went in exile in calabar. How many oba Ovonramwen do we have? This is the only oba Ovonramwen nogbaisi nee esigie that I know

blowjohn:



Has obaseki performed better than Oshiomhole?

commoditiesnig:
Oshiobaba did excellently well in our state. Infrastructure, Education, Amenities, Transportation, etc.. Since he left, sadly Edo has never been same.

Schools also! He modernised the buildings!

If you go to Irrua Edo Central and see the quality roads Oshio constructed.. We can never forget


Very correct!

sagitariusbaby:
are you dreaming right now? Edo people will not vote for an illiterate who cannot speak nor address the people publicly.

Jestin:
The candidate should have been taken to see Oke road in that LGA. That road is a total write off and a complete disaster

vowiski:

Because the governor refused to share money to thugs.

Election result go shock you
