Lol Maybe Edo no be Nigeria na him dem go use this time....

E go shock them other parties dey cook

raumdeuter:
Obaseki fought against Godfather imposition only for him to impose his stooge Ighodalo and become his godfather

Oshiomole fought against Anenih godfatherism only to become a godfather to Obaseki

What this only prove is that people are hypocrites and they only turn into activists seeking public favor when the game does not favor them

Gargantuan hypocrites for that matter.

Odubu was loyal to Oshiomhole for 8 years but he brought Obaseki in.

Malroux:
Congratulations to Asue Ighodalo. But it will be on record that Obaseki is the biggest betrayal in Nigeria political history for betraying Shuabu.

How did he betrayed him...is a Edo state up for rotation between north and south?

I will vote for Obaseki

Dead on arrival ambition

This was obvious....... PS would be having cramps now......... 😜🤣

Nigerian politicians/politics, dangerous for your health.......... 🤣

Correspondence:
I will vote for Obaseki

In ighodalo"s image. Your vote carries weight o. One vote for stooge and a placeholder

It's the clash of the godfathers in Edo. Obaseki vs Oshiomhole

Malroux:
Congratulations to Asue Ighodalo. But it will be on record that Obaseki is the biggest betrayal in Nigeria political history for betraying Shuabu.

I don't think it can be compared to what OBJ did to Atiku in 2007

no no
you should rather say, what is good for the goose is same for the gander.
it may soon be the turn of the obaseki to be paid in his coin by this own stooge ighodalo, if the said stooge ighodalo wins

slaawomirr:
Damnnn niggar
Nice one
Congratulations our next governor

Lets give esan a chance

He is only Esan by ancestry.

Doesn't speak the language, has never schooled or lived there.

Companies he is director of have no prescence over there.

Came all the way from Ibadan via Lagos to attempt to be another technocrat gorvernor.

Has zero idea of what it feels like to live and work in Esanland or even Ẹdo state.

We thought APC were shameless in the way they conducted their primaries, trust PDP to drag the bar even lower.

Local politics for local politicians on ground.

The event held at the Lawn tennis court of the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin.

The Chairman of the Primary Committee, Zamfara State Governor, Dauda Lawal-Dare announced that Ighodalo scored 577 votes, Anselm Ojezua 0, Osaro 0, Deputy Governor Philip Shaibu 1 vote.

Also present was the host Governor, Godwin Obaseki, Co-Chairmam of the Primary Committee Governor Sheriff Oborevwori of Delta State, members of the National Working Committee of the PDP and representatives of INEC.

congratulations to the People’s Governor, congratulations to Dr Asue Ighodalo for emerging as the Pdp governorship flagbearer today. Success in the campaign and election in September. God Almighty keep on protecting you and guide you on every side.

There's NOTHING wrong with having a favored candidate. it happens all over the world. Obama favored Hillary Clinton over Beany Sanders, and ensured that the super delegates voted for her at the convention. That's the only way she was able to defeat Sanders.
When you've held executive position, you understand what it takes, and it would be irresponsible to not support the person you think is the most qualified candidate.
What is very WRONG, is when a former leader(Governor or President) Does not let his chosen get on with the job. That's what Obasanjo tried to do with Umaru Yar'dua, Wike tried to do with Fubra, and Oshimole tried to do with Obaseki.
If Ighodalo ends up becoming governor, and Obaseki tries to control him, he will get exactly the same treatment, he gave Oshimole, and the Edo people will support that.

lifeandjoy:

I'm yet to see a fine governor from Edo

Are you fine?

tnerro1:
Now the journey to government house has started, just ignore Philip, he has no say in Edo politics. But watch osho baba with one eye open oooo

Apc Don clip osho wings. His man won't come out victorious today.
He will seat this one out

You could say the same and more about William Troost-Ekong. A man who was not born in Nigeria, never lived or played in Nigeria, yet lead Nigeria very well in the just concluded ACON.
Why not judge the man on what he plans to do for Edo state not where was born and lived.

Is this how low we can sink to? "He is Esan only by ancestry". For real? We(Niger Delta) now deny our own because they don't speak the language? Assuming he becomes governor and is able to get a lot of development projects in Esan land would he still be less Esan because he can't speak the language? We need to start learning from the Itsekiri people who would gladly accept any one who has one pint of Itsekiri blood

Godoverevery:
When I say politicians are all the same blind people wont understand.

Same Obaseki dey were praising look at what he is doing.

Shouting Edo no be lagos......no to Godfatherism.

Edo....Edo...dem take UGLY do una for governorship?
Pastor Itua Ighodalo dey there bah...mae una change una destiny for once

Confam!

Yeah

Congratulation Asue Ighodaro, if Jesus doesn't blow the trumpet, I'll be voting him even though I don't like Obaseki. Edo prepare for more taxing of he wins . I am Bini, I want an Esan at Dennis Osadebe house this time. Óba ghatókpre Iseeeeeee.

Malroux:

Who is Shuabu 8 years as deputy governor is that not enough Isan central to have the opportunity .

AllenSpencer:
I love everything happening in Edo!

“Edo no be Lagos” and they voted for Obaseki who is the worst Governor in Africa after Dapo Abiodun.

They will vote for Obaseki’s stooge again and expect a different result.

Edo people just have an undying love for incompetence. Same state that produced Igbenedion the Great Looter!

It really beats me how people like you go jumping from one thread to another licking other people's wounds when indeed you're being bedeviled by a localized plague that if not checked may soon consume you.

Igbinedion actually perfumed than your Bulaba of Lagos but without vuvuzela to announce him and his results.

It doesn't count. What we need in Esan land is someone who will transform Esanland. We've been in dark for too long.
It is time for the Esan man's breakforth.

God bless us.

I just tire for the guy that wrote that post. It's as if he wants an Esan bus driver to be governor as that's the only kind of person that will be 'Esan Enough' for him

Eso state like to produce urgly people as governor, fine person no fit be governor of edo state
