I haven't seen a group of people who have shown Obi more love in this political climate of Nigeria than the great Edo people of the Benin kingdom, and to think that they were the least people from the South South anyone would have expected to stand strong with Obi. Surely the Igbo nation will do due diligence by profoundly reciprocating this solidarity and love from your Edo brothers/sisters in due time.

God bless the great Edo nation
God bless the Benin empire
God bless the Igbo nation.
Here in Europe my best friends are from Edo state, as an Ibo man I don't play with them. If edo man say to you stay here, my guy stand with your two legs no shaking.

Look at this miserable ogogoro drinking miscreant, you're so pained that the Edo people have found true friendship with Ndigbo? LMFAOOOO, bros Igbos no send your poverty-stricken sewage tribe, we've made it clear time and time again that we've got BIGGER FISHES to fry, and that includes making the right alliance with people that actually matter...I don't know what your grouse is with Igbos, but we've made it markedly clear that we share no affinity and relationship with your tiny ijaw tribe...in the event we get Biafra, it's going to be a homogenous Igbo nation ONLY, so get that into your thick ogogoro addled brain-cells and stop bugging for attention where there is none. Igbos NO SEND UNA.

I just find it strange you're antagonizing Igbos who don't even care one bit about you people's existence, but the North who are siphoning your "oyel" resources to develop their commonwealth while leaving your Ijaw state poor, wretched and environmentally uninhabitable aren't your headache! brainless barracuda ijaw sewage rat!
OMG!! Bro you have annihilated the guy... Abeg pity am small.. Chai!!! Ijaw sewage rat this is heavy... gringringrin

Am really shocked too by the massive love I neverI used to think that they are amongst one of the nigerian tribes that despise and hate anything igbo now I know better Edo people are indeed a great nation maximum respect to them and their great king.
Why do some of you guys think a whole ethnic group will hate on Igbos?

So if not that Obi is loved by the Binis, you would still believe Binis hate Igbos Chai! sad

My father's first landlord was an Edo man. He always stood for justice. My dad chose him as his mentor.

I best professor was also from Benin, though an atheist he also reasoned just and fair.

If all Edo people are like this, they deserve full respect .

We Edo's are a people who respect competence and honesty. We can all see what Peter Obi did in Amambra hence our total support for him. We also believe in fairness , the Igbos supported SS and SW in the past, even over their own son's, so now they deserve our support.

The presidential election is NOT an inter-tribal contest.

The Labour party won in far away Nassarawa State which is closer to the North but lost in Akwa-Ibom State, whose people are culturally, genetically and Geographically related and closer to the Igbos

Lol what can Igbos do for anybody? Go and check, my people are notorious for siding with losers in an election. I don't know why. 2015, 2019, 2023 we voted for the ones that couldn't win. Even in gubernatorial election we still chose a fool like Obaseki. Maybe it's just pigheadedness or attention seeking

Chukwuemeka Odumegwu Ojukwu is a Nigerian who fought on the opposition camp against Nigeria during the civil war.
It is safe to say he started the civil war with his declaration of a biafra as a
federation.

What many people don't know is that before this civil war, there was another, that was short lived. As a matter of fact, it lasted for only 12 days. This was led by Major Isaac Boro Adaka.

Major Isaac Boro Adaka popularly called Boro, was born on the 10th of September, 1938. He is the son of a missionary school head.

So Boro had a formal education up to the university level. As a matter of fact he was the SUG president (number one student) of the university of Nigeria Nsuka as at then.

Isaac Boro was from the oil rich land of olobiri, in present day Bayelsa. Then, those areas were all under what is called the 'eastern region', which was then headed by the military governor 1954.. Guess who the millitary governor was? Dim Odumegwu Ojukwu. Yes our very own Ojukwu.


the capital of the eastern region was in Enugu state. Despite the fact that the Ijaw region produces the oil, they were sidelined by the Aguiyi Ironsi military led administration, Irrespective of the fact that Adaka Boro niger delta region laid the Golden egg, dim Ojukwu didn't mind or consider them.
This caused major Isaac Boro to abandon his studies in his finals, to lead an arm protest against the government of Aguiyi Ironsi, over the poor treatment melted out to his people...

before this, Ijaw elder, Dapper Biriye had moved a motion to carved the niger delta or Rivers state out of the Igbo dominated eastern region just as the Yorubas carved out the other niger deltas from their western region to have their midwest, but the Igbos rejected it...

When all political peaceful movements by Dapper Biriye went abortive, the declaration of the niger delta Republic became the only means...

Adaka Boro see the only way to freed Ijaw from the eastern region was to leave nigeria entirely, so he declared the niger delta Republic on february 29 1966,
This republic lasted only 12days because aguiyi ironsi and ojukwu ordered the whole Nigeria military strength on them...

Aguiyi ironsi the military president of nigeria and Ojukwu the military governor of eastern region killed 150 Ijaw youths and arrested Adaka Boro and sentenced him to death by hanging..

two brothers, of ironsi and Ojukwu won the short war for nigeria...unknowing to ojukwu he will also declared republic..

Boro was in prison waiting for his death, but
God heard the cry of Ijaws as counter coup from North killed aguiyi ironsi and brought Yakubu Gown to power, released Adaka Boro from prison... not did Gowon released Adaka Boro, he also created the Rivers state out of the Eastern region for Adaka Boro and his people... This was a dream come true for Adaka Boro..

Later the Igbos massacred in The north and the creation of the old River state out of the eastern region by Yakubu Gowon made ojukwu and his people got angry, because they felt, the oil rich Oloibiri was no longer part of their eastern region again.....

The frustrated ojukwu got angry at Gowon for breaching the aburi accord, by creating the oil Rich Rivers state out of his eastern region, so ojukwu without blink of eyes declared the Republic of biafra and forcefully included the already created Adaka Boro's Rivers state...

This criminal act from ojukwu made Boro got angry, so with help from Gowon, Boro trained his 1,000 Rivers soldiers of Ijaw extraction and fought the biafran forces.
Boro and his 1,000 Rivers men got lot of success in the war as they killed thousands of biafran forces and evicted all biafrans out of the River state...

10 months into fight Adaka Boro already got lot of success. he recaptured all territories captured by the conquest biafran forces in River state.... but the mighy hero was killed on a mysterious circumstances at Okrika...

No one know who killed the hero, opinion were divided as some said it was a lone biafra soldier who shot him from hideout, while others said it was adekunle Benjamin the nigeria military leader who ambushed him for jealous of his success in the war...

Who really killed the hero?

Adaka Boro was not just hero but a prophet because he saw today nigeria which everyone refused to see...

Adaka Boro was not just hero and prophet but also a saviour..

Adaka Boro will forever lives in our heart.

He freed us from biafra and the demonic eastern region.

Adaka Boro will forever be remembered in history.

1. What did peter obi do in Anambra that's even comparable to Asiwaju?

2. Did Ibos vote for Awolowo or Abiola? Did they vote for Falae (the Yoruba mandate)?

Answer this questions honestly.

You do not toy with the devil,but binis are forgotten the devil...make I dey watch de event
You are calling the Binis mumu, just because you are from Ijaw?

Do you even know that the Bini empire is one of the oldest empire in Nigeria?

When the Ijaws have not even migrated to Southside?

Respect who pass you.

Nawa oh.

What I love most about Edo people is that they are not cowards.
They fear no one when taking their stand, whether in politics or other areas.
They LOVE justice and hustle seriously for it wholeheartedly.
What they see in Peter Obi is competence and justice.
That is why they support him.
Other Nigerians that share such worldview and values of hardwork, love for justice, hustle, progressive, etc, also voted for Obi.
The haters can't understand it, but that is the spirit that will save Nigeria if at all Nigeria can be saved.
