I remember how he welcome Wike to Edo last four years to help him out. And Wike did a marvelous job and got praised. How time and interest cave in and change their understanding is a question we both don't have answers to.
Obaseki didn't prepare for this election. No project commissioning just empty promises (he go do en) after 8good years. Oga nor try.
Edo people want to try alternative party.

Governors only remember they're the chief security Officer of the state when it's time for politics and elections but when the lives and properties of the people they govern are under threat, they'll push the blame to the FG.

When he was fighting those that support him in 2020, he never thought this time will come.
Imagine going public to discard Wike who stood by him in 2020 because of Okowa who was nowhere to be found when the federal might wanted to rubbish him. Obaseki is an ingrate, and that act runs in his blood.

Only a fool does that

yarimo:
PDP and labour party are not ready for any election

Are you human being?

Wickedfact:
Obaseki will see shege.
Wike will be unleashed on him, then Shuaibu will hold him from the back.
Oshiomole will be supplying them koboko and Tinubu will just be looking.

By the way, I hope Fubara is learning. I also hope those in PDP can see how useless Atiku can be as a leader.

..that's the sad reality we find ourselves in

Jostoman:
I have told you people to forget anything free and fair election in any election organize by APC government, this is more reason why they want to extend the tenure of if you know you know.

But if Pdp wins is a free and fare election. You people are pathetic

Oghene86:
PDP would still win , you can't have someone that can't spell his name as a governor, na national assembly go impeach am if he becomes governor

You speak like a political neophyte of Nigeria's politics.

In a twinkle of an eye, you will see these same State house of reps members belonging to PDP cross carpeting to the party of the Governor elect if APC wins.

E no dey hard them..

Check Plateau State...the state house of rep members had to allegedly sign a solidarity path with the Governor... because they are in different political parties...the Speaker is even from the minority...so, what are we sayings

lovinhubby2wife:
Okpebholo is an educated individual. I graduated as the best student in my set with a first-class degree. However, I struggle with public speaking—I stammer and often misuse words due to stage fright. My body shakes uncontrollably, and when I hear people talk about Okprbholo's challenges, I can relate.

How then a person that can't speak to the public could represent them at the house?

Akinpresident:
It's funny how Wike camped in Edo and ensured Obaseki win his election under PDP even though he just decamped inspite of Jagaban's presence and influence. We were told "Edo no be Lagos" and Jagaban left.
Today, same Wike who played that card is with his karma cane alongside Jagaban. It's gonna be hard for Obaseki to pull this off.

Moral lesson: Never burn bridges because you might want to cross it again.

obaseki does not need to pull anything off, APC stands no chance in this election, the party and the candidate are all thrash, Asue ighodalo is the choice of Edo voters. Apc knows this too, but they have other plans like rigging.

seanfer:
PDP is going to the election as a divided house,
Can PDP win Edo North, Edo central.. even the Edo south where the sitting governor comes from the votes is already shared into 3. PDP, LP and also APC deputy governorship candidate.
What about the legacy group working against PDP.
As a neutral person, PDP can't survive this onslaught.

Asue is still the most preferred candidate by Edo voters, I tell you this for a fact, if he is going to lose these are the factors that will make it happen, massive vote buying by the Apc, electoral rigging, federal might, judiciary. Apc stands no chance, okphebolo is a terrible candidate, his party the Apc is even more terrible.

Always like looking for excuses.... are you saying PDP is not going to do massive vote buying and rigging also?...
Looking at the election from a neutral point of view..
APC has 2 senators
Majority of Reps member from the state.
The APC candidate is a grass root person in his senatorial district
Edo North is a fortress for APC
Shuaibu and the Legacy group are with APC
The only Senatorial district the PDP is hoping to get bulk votes is the South Senatorial district and LP candidate is also from that place... Also the Igbinedions are supporting the APC candidate.
The Oba and Obaseki issue is there also.
Looking at all this factors gave the APC candidate the upper hand.

Obaseki was supporting Atiku thinking he will be given the VP slot.. Reason he went on live T.V to insult Wike...

You can't win with a divided house

They don't know this yet... Same thing that happened to PDP in 2023 presidential election is about to happen to Edo PDP in 2024.

No doubt Pdp wins September 21st governorship election in Edo State. Asue Ighodalo is the peoples choice

Garfield1, you will accept the reality on September 21st. Apc will be heavily defeated in the governorship election in Edo state. Na Edo no be Lagos in Benin now

That's the issue. APC knows voters won't vote them and they're prepared to win with any means necessary which Obaseki can't forestall.

Not after you guys insulted a whole Abdulsalam Abubakar at the peace accord signing

insulted as how? You are out of your mind @garfield1. Accept the reality here, Apc will be massively received defeat in the next week Saturday governorship election 🗳. Everything have been Mapped out already. Arresting over Pdp supporters in Edo state will even allow much Edo State youths to come out massively and cast their votes for Dr Asue Ighodalo of Pdp. Apc is a goner. Edo no be Lagos

If Edo carry their hands bring Apc to remove them will be hard ooo.

Rule number 1 in Apc is that u must not outshine the President in governance else you become persona non grata.

As for PDP Obaseki is bringing his stuge which Edo people don't want too. Nothing like godfather in Edo.

Only person who is free is Labour party Akpata but some are complaining cos of where he came from.

Now it's left for Edo people to choose between tribe and best candidate.

Some people chose tribe over good candidate in 2023 and the tipple effect is everywhere already.
4yrs in not 4days.

National Assembly- The Senate, to Impeach a State Governor? It shows how conversant you're with politics. 😄😃

and you forgot the most important part of it all the electorates, maybe you don't know this these factors you just listed only slightly aides a candidate that is popular and has some electoral clouts, okphebolo does not have that combined with Apc's and tinubu's negative
image, the Apc can only stand a chance through Federal might, rigging and massive vote buying, the igbinedions are not supporting Apc even if they were it means nothing, look at how obaseki won the last election, were these factors you mentioned not present then, but still obaseki won a second term because the electorates had a strong will, and that is the most important factor not in all.

Obaseki won the second term because there are people working for him at the grass root level.
You said Okphebolo is not popular... Are you aware he won the Senatorial seat against LP and PDP last year?
As it stands he is guarantee to win 2 Senatorial districts...
Also you mentioned Tinubu, are you saying Tinubu will be on the ballot come September 21?

I am saying tinubu's negative leadership and that of the Apc's will work against him "Edo no be Lagos" phrase is still valid today and you know who it was said against, the same people who worked for obaseki at the grassroot level for him to win are still working today combined with the masses who supported him then and now, and Asue's image as a corporate educated guy has also added to his overall positive image perception, the Apc guy has never been at a debate even when he appeared at campaign ground he couldn't even expressed himself properly these reminds us of Tinubu and it's not a good look and the Apc has been a monumental disaster okphebolo is going nowhere, his only chance is through the back door.
