All the Enigies of Esanland, otherwise called Edo Central Senatorial District, Saturday, in an unprecedented political gathering, received the PDP candidate and his deputy, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, and Hon John Yakubu, at the palace of the Ojuromi of Uromi, HRM Zaiki Aidenojie.

Present at the palace of the first class monarch, were the Enigie of Irrua, Igueben, Ekpoma, Ubiaja, Uromi. Others are Ewu, Ewossa, Ewatto, Urohi, Ebelle, Uzea, Egoro, Idoa, Udo, Okhodua, Ujogba, Ogwa, Ekpon and others.

The PDP chairman lamented that the Esan has been totally neglected the Esan people. He stated the APC has not appointed an Esan person into any position of significance. He said that the only position which they struggled on their own to attain was the speakership of the House of Assembly but the APC took it away on the instruction of Adams Oshiomhole.

The PDP chairman stated that the PDP decided to choose their deputy governor from Esanland as a gesture to begin the healing and reintegration process for the Esan people to redress the injustice of the past perpetrated by the APC and Oshiomhole.

Responding, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu thanked the Esan monarchs for the rare honour done to him. He praised Esan land for their high regard for tradition and culture. He lamented the total neglect of the district by Adams Oshiomhole even at a period when the state received very high allocation, ten times higher than precious administrations.

“Education and agriculture are some of the brands of Esanland. 2008 till now, the APC government of Adams Oshiomhole totally neglected the Ambrose Alli University. Oshiomhole has done everything to destroy whatever was left in Esanland.”

Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu lamented how the right of Esanland to have a Speaker was denied by Adams Oshiomhole. Also how Adams Oshiomhole removed the Head of Service because he was an Esan person. He also said that the worst insult to the Esan people was the APC choice of deputy governor candidate outside Esanland. He said the Esan people should stop supporting those who have no regard for the Esan people, he promised to develop Edo state and restore justice and equity to the state.

“What the government of Edo state has spent in Esanland is 8% of the budget. For the government to spend eight percent in a senatorial district that is one of the three districts of Esanland is the apogee of insult to the Esan people. I have seen schools being commissioned, I have not seen a laboratory. I will build and commission schools with laboratories and libraries when we come on board. We shall create special markets in Esanland including a spare parts market. My deputy John Yakubu shall not be a spare tyre but a co-pilot”. Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu said.

The deputy governor candidate, who spoke in Esan, thanked the PDP leaders for zoning the number two citizen to Esan. He lamented the hatred that Adams Oshiomhole has for the Esan people. He pleaded with the traditional rulers to give total support for the PDP also as a way of appreciating the party for treating the Esan people with dignity and respect.

The PDP national leader Chief Tony Anenih thanked the Esan monarchs for giving him a title that he is proud of, the Iyasele of Esanland. He introduced Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu to the monarchs describing him as “a man whom I have studied over the years. He is a man who says in the morning and it is yes in the afternoon and yes in the evening. He is a man of God. His Excellency in waiting, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu. Yakubu his deputy is a man who is known everywhere and the only one whom Oshiomhole could not buy.” Chief Tony Anenih said.

Speaking on behalf of the Royal father’s in Esanland, His Royal Majesty, Aidonojie, Ojuromi of Uromi, welcome the PDP leaders and their train to Esanland. He congratulated the PDP candidate on his victory at the PDP primaries. He said that Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu has direct relationship with virtually all the enigie of Esanland. He said that

“Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu is son of the former Esogban of Benin kingdom without blemish. Your father did not betray the palace. We trust you that you will not betray us. Esan nation are part and parcel of this state. We the people of Esan are very unhappy at the relegation of the Esan people in the state. When you become Governor of Edo state we urge you to correct the ills committed against us. We are very happy that you took one of our sons and we will say thank you to you, not just by words of mouth, we will use our PVCs.” The Ojuromi of Irrua.

The Onoje of Ujogba said that the Edo central will give the PDP 90 of their votes, lamenting the total neglect of the Esan people. Noting that there are no teachers in schools, no development, and total neglect.

High point of the ocassion was the prayer for Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu by the Onojie of Igueben accompanied by all the monarchs of Esanland, who prayed that Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu to win the election.

Dignitaries in the train of the PDP included Chief Tony Anenih, Chief Tom Ikimi, Chief Mike Oghiadomhe, Senator Clifford Ordia, Senator Matthew Urhoghide, Hon Friday Itulah, Chief Okosodo Okoh, and others.

This is sad.

I remember when Anenih was a powerhouse in Nigeria,and was fondly referred to as Mr Fix It. But now?he has sadly been relegated to the Politics of Esanland.

How the mighty falls too.

And this same man,with this move by gathering the traditional rulers of most Esanland,has just relegated the Esanland people to the dungeon of irrelevance in Edo State for the next 8 years.

Anenih being a failure is not in contention,but to now drag the entire Esan people with him into the pit of failure,is something that should make all responsible Esan Sons and Daughters fight back.

Number wise,the Esan are irrelevant in the Scheme of things in Edo State anyway. If the APC gets all the Benin,Owan,Etsako and the Akoko Edo Votes,then the election is a wrap.

I think there is something wrong with the guy above me

How much are u paid to post all these..

PDP went to Esanland on Sarurday 16th July in Uromi for Edo Central campaign flag off. The onojie of Uromi invited other Esan kings to his palace and they prayed for Ize Iyamu. Praying for a candidates is not an endorsement.

I can guarantee you by the time APC Godwin Obasaki go for Edo Central Campaign, d same kings will still pray for Godwin obaseki.

When that is done, i will post it here on dis forum.

Oba of Benin who is d head of all esan kings, on same day prayed for Godwin Obaseki.

I wish you well, Crown Prince tells Obaseki
On July 16, 20166:07 pmIn NewsComments

The Crown Prince of Benin Kingdom, His Royal Highness (Amb) Eheneden Erediauwa has wished the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Mr. Godwin Obaseki well to be the next governor of Edo State.

During the visit of APC governors to the Crown Prince of Benin Kingdom in Benin City, Saturday, the Edaiken said it is not good to be in the opposition. The Edaiken who praised Governor Adams Oshiomhole said, “On behalf of the chiefs, the royal family and the Benin Kingdom, I want to specially welcome here the gubernatorial aspirant and his running mate, the one I call my son. He is always so shy. I don’t know how he is able to play politics.


I want to welcome all of you for coming here today. I am very delighted and honoured to see the chieftains of the APC, and we are sure that the state is moving on strong with the APC. I have always said one thing, and I have repeated and reiterated it over and over again that in Benin, the Benin Monarch is not partisan. However, it is not always too easy to be in the opposition with the party at the centre in Abuja.”

He continued, “So, when Adams Oshiomhole, the Comrade Governor took the reins of office here, and it was APC; the PDP was in charge in Abuja; we were all wondering: how is he going to do it? How is he going to get the attention of the federal government? How is he going to pool all the resources that he needs to work in the state? As you all know, he worked miracles. He did a lot of things which many people thought could not be done. Almost along the same line the Governor of Lagos State at the time also, Fashola. So, they were virtually like two brothers working together in the face of the opposition.”

He said, “So, we can only pray that may the Lord God almighty and our ancestors protect the gubernatorial candidates, give them the wisdom to put food on the table of the masses because for us, our first concern is the people, the masses, and of course, he will be a great respecter, like our comrade Governor, I said he should do better than him, to be a great respecter of the traditional institution.”

The Crown Prince added, “So, I want to thank you all very much and wish that the gubernatorial aspirant will do their best to improve on the Comrade Governor’s work in the State. It is going to be a lot of work to beat. He has set standards that other governors, they have to beat. I want to thank you very much, because I know the time is far spent and you are starting the campaign now. On behalf of our family, the chiefs, I want to wish you well.”

Speaking on behalf of the APC governors, the Chairman of Progressives Governors and Governor of Imo State, Mr. Rochas Okorocha said, “We are happy to be here because for every journey that has a beginning, it will have an end. And we have seen in sight an end to one journey, and hence we are rushing fast to introduce the remaining one. Adams Oshiomhole is one man in this country that you cannot afford not to count when you are counting the northerners. He has passion for Edo State. He has made his mark, but if after all these good jobs, there should be a continuation, so that we, as my brother rightly put it yesterday, that we will not go back to Egypt. Governance is the one that relates with the people. And for the whole party to have looked at all the candidates, not because he is the finest, not because he is the tallest, and have chosen him means that certain qualities of Adamism are in him. They started right and they said we should accompany him here. And the first to visit the stream takes the cleanest of the water.”

He said, “The manner in which he has kept this palace and dignified it, we are requesting that he will even do better. He will do same, and even do better, because in our party APC led by President Buhari, it is not a government of deceit. It is a government of reality. So, we pray that Edo people will give him support and we shall come here in November to say certain words to you.”

Earlier, Governor Adams Oshiomhole said, “We are here, your royal highness, to present to your highness, and we feel very privileged to be the first to present the very senior applicant to your highness. And we believe with your blessings and prayers, and knowing your commitment, the peace, security, development and continuous growth and development of this great kingdom, and indeed of the entire Edo State, and of which you know, your highness, we are unanimous. There is only one paramount traditional ruler in this great state.”

Oshiomhole said, “For me, therefore, it is a rare privilege that you granted us the honour and opportunity to present the person who is applying for my job. So, we are privileged to present to you Godwin Obaseki as our gubernatorial candidate for the September 10 election. We ask for your prayers, your blessings and all that you have done for me before, which I pray should be extended to him, because he himself must do much better than I was able to do.”

Among the Progressives governors that visited the Benin Crown Prince with Governor Oshiomhole were Governor Rochas Okorocha of Imo State, Simon Lalong of Plateau State, Nasir El Rufai of Kaduna State, Abdulahi Ganduje of Kano State, Mohammed Abubakar of Bauchi State as well as deputy governors of Niger, Nasarawa, Jigawa, Borno, Kwara, Kogi and Oyo states.

Read a brief summary of Pastor Ize Iyamu's manifesto called "Simple Agenda" the small hand out is the most read material right now all across Edo State Edo State....




[b] "Beneficial development does not occur by chance or happenstance but through conscious roadmaps initiated by that leader armed with foresight and the will to make a meaningful impact on and difference in the living standard of his people.
The chicken-hearted dare not dare to chart new trajectories for fear of failure and disappointment. He thinks it is impossible if it has not been attempted or tested before.
Virgin areas that will impact positively on the lives of the people are considered anathema either for fear of stumbling or outright as a misadventure. In many instances, the corruption-prone leader thinks of the opportunity cost of deploying state funds meant for sustainable development to watering private and self-serving motives and setting in motion inaction, retrogression and inertia in the core areas of people-focused development.
In other instances, the leader is confronted with a myriad of daunting issues of stunted development; entrenched and fossilised political interests that stall government business or sabotage it or both.
In the midst of this milieu that could have dissuaded a lily-livered leader, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu has set out to, clinically, implement his charter of sustainable development to take Edo State out of the doldrums of failed “mega projects; inflated “mega” projects; inflated “legacy” projects,” poorly-finished projects and undelivered “messianic” promises premised on those policies, programmes and projects that would have impacted positively on Edo people if handed conscientiously and commitment.
Pastor Ize-Iyamu’s vision of meaningful development is woven around a matrix of Irreducible Minimum Objectives and Standards, Core Strategies and Success Indicators and Strict Policies, Programmes and Projects Conception, Implementation and Monitoring, that is encapsulated in his “SIMPLE Agenda”, a compendium of his vision and hope for a Greater Edo State.
The SIMPLE Agenda, as espoused by Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, the front running governorship aspirant of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is defined as S = Security and Social Welfare; I = Infrastructure Development/Urban Renewal; M = Manpower Development and Training; P = Public/Private Partnership (PPP); L = Leadership by Example and E = Employment Creation and Social Empowerment Scheme.
The revolutionary working programme is built on a foundation that the pastor has consistently strengthened by his assurance that the people of Edo State and by extension, the country at large, should hold him responsible and vicariously liable for the implementation of the contents of his “Simple Agenda”, if elected as governor on September 10, 2016. At a recent interactive forum in Lagos, he emphasised that “I want to assure you that I mean well”. Yes, he means well, given his robust enthusiasm to take Edo State to Greater Heights. His SIMPLE agenda is anchored on security/social welfare, infrastructure development/urban renewal, manpower development and training, public/private partnership, leadership and employment.
The foregoing and other core issues not listed here are woven around the foundation of the solid truth, consistency, accountability, care and above all, the fear of God, enshrined in the SIMPLE Agenda, as propounded by Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu to power the new era of good governance that he will usher in on November 12, 2016, in Edo State. He will open up spaces hitherto hidden from the people and provide a human face that is dedicated to the overall welfare and of the people. He will work together with the people with renewed vigour, tenacity of purpose for the benefit of all, without bias.
Pastor Ize-Iyamu’s desire to serve the good and hardworking people of Edo State is predicated on mutual trust, mutual cooperation and the belief that the people’s mandate is a sacred endowment that must be used, primarily, for the uplift of their welfare and general living standard.
That is the SIMPLE Agenda.

[size=13pt]Simple because u don't live in Edo State, I and my fellow Edo brothers will pardon ur stupidity and sophisiticated Zombisim for saying u have not heard Pastor Ize Iyamu outline his mainfesto.Go to Edo State, every body is reading the hand out called the "Simple Agenda" which is the manifesto from Pastor Ize Iyamu.
The APC Governorship Candidate, Godwin Obaseki on his own part as at last Friday has not presented any manifesto .He has not told Edo people what he wants to do for them.

The Same Godwin Obaseki yesterday at Ogbe Stadium in Benin city durring his rally promised go create 200, 000 thousand jobs in Edo state...Oshiomole his God father can not create common 10,000 jobs in Edo State during his 8 years. Obaseki and Oshiomole think Edolites are fool.....September 10 is already by the corner, we are waiting for them at the polls with our PVCs.

The same APC candidate OBASEKI was stammering and shaking throughout his speech yesterday, he was busy reading his manifesto from a political science text book, go n and watch the video of yesterday's APC rally. The Obaseki of a guy was just shaking, he couldn't outline his manifesto from his head, he had to resort to using a politcial science text book.....I repeat go back n watch yesterday APC rally and what what Obaseki disgrace him self and his APC supporters.
[/size]

please reminds me what happened after this

tomakint:
Nice one Pastor Iyamu to the rescue....

rescue what? they say osho perform miracle,which obaseki wil continue, u are talking of rescue us back to where we are coming from when lucky and ize-iyamu show us pepper, we wil never go back to egypt. joshua d obaseki wil take us further from where moses d oshomole took us from.

You are the one who is not relevant, You don't have a life ? APC don't know you exist. They will support who they want to support.
