So the governor is the one that selects a future governor and deputy for the state and some misinformed Edo electorates will be watching with their eyes open and yet claim Edo nor be Lagos? How is what Obaseki is doing different from what Tinubu did when he was governor? 10 Likes |

donphilopus: You're very wrong. Akoko is indigenous Yoruba (Ondo state) people. There are 4 Akoko local governments within Ondo State - right next to Akoko-Edo in Edo State. 1) Akoko North-East 2) Akoko North-West, 3) Akoko-South-East and 4) Akoko-South-West. Infact, the Akokos are the single most populous sub-ethnic group in Ondo State. Larger than Akure, Ondo, Owo and Ikale/Ilaje. It was the convenience of using River Ose as boundary between the Ondo and Edo States that resulted in some Akoko villages ending up in Edo. 10 Likes 4 Shares |

airsaylongcome: Lie! The Yoruba people did not commit such an act and will never do so. You have fabricated a story to suit your narrative, which is entirely false! The truth is that the Yoruba people respect whatever Olumide Akpata or anyone chooses to call themselves; the Yoruba do not force any 'attachment' unlike some individuals from a particular region of the country. However, the fact remains as it is; a fact! Names such as Olumide, Omobayo, Tunde, Bamidele, Oyegun, Idowu, etc., are deeply rooted in the Yoruba language; they are Yoruba names. Those who claim that Akoko Edo people are not Yoruba simply do not know what they are saying. It's like saying Owo people are not Yoruba. Moreover, the key point is that the Oba of Benin is of Yoruba descent; it's a fact. 11 Likes 3 Shares |

garfield1:how are you so certain of that? Akoko Edo has never been governor or deputy governor for the longest of time, not even for two days, this act certainly would change the historical narrative that an Akoko Edo person was deputy governor for over half a year, you cannot wish it away, they might likely not get close to that position for the next 30 years or more. It is a significant mark for them, you can’t wish it away or underestimate it, you cannot authoritatively determine if it will not sway vote, from the look of things, it certainly will. A party willing to win election in Edo state will not pick an Akoko Edo person as the governor or deputy. For Obaseki to quickly use this impeachment scheme to get them to be a part of government shows he is smart and knows what he is doing. 11 Likes 1 Share |

DeLaRue: Can you mention at least one community in Akoko Edo that's Yoruba? Just one please. I'm from Akoko Edo and I'm telling you what I know. We are close to the Yorubas but no community in the whole of Akoko Edo is indigenous Yoruba. 1 Like |
