Ebonyi Governor, David Umahi on Friday assured Godwin Obaseki will be re-elected Governor of Edo state.

He said nothing will stop the Governor’s re-election because he has done well and deserves to continue in office.

Obaseki is a member of the All Progressive Congress(APC) while Umahi is a member of the opposition People’s Democratic Party (PDP).

Umahi was addressing Obaseki’s wife, Betsy and other Southern Governors’ Wife’s who were on a courtesy call to him in Abakaliki, the Ebonyi State Capital.

The Governor’s Wives were in the state for the Southern Nigeria Governors’ Wifes’ Forum quarterly meeting.

Umahi said: “Power belongs to God and no matter what anybody will dot is God that has the final say and I can assure you Ma, you know as an apostle of the most high God I also prophesy . And because of the good work your husband is doing for the people of Edo State no man can unseat him.

“Power belongs to God and no matter what anybody will do, it is God that has the final say and I can assure you ma, you know as an apostle of the most high God I also prophesy. And because of the good work your husband is doing for the people of Edo state, no man can
unset him.

“I made this statement so that the glory of God will become larger. It happened here in Ebonyi.

” I have a testimony of what God can do. Even in our NEC meeting, when Obaseki speaks, you see Economics.

“You see a man that came from private sector background. And so, we can’t wish that away. So, congratulations to you in advance and to all of us.

“You know the Governors; we have so many elections. First is the primary, second one is the poll, then the third one is the tribunal. Then another one is the appeal and then the election of the elections is the supreme court.

“So, it is not an easy thing and if the hand of God is not upon you, you can’t scale through all these hurdles. And so, it is God who has brought all of us to leadership and I say double congratulations to all of us”.

Hmm.. This statement by Umahi is pregnant with meaning. Is he trying to imply that Obaseki will be the PDP candidate in Edo? Either that or he's already writing off his own party's candidate in that election. Doesn't that qualify as an anti-party activity or utterance?

SECONDED. OBASEKI IS GOING NOWHERE

Yes o but the painful reality is i dont see oshomole loosing edo state considering what he has done in other states election.

It would be an aberration if his own state isnt apc especially going into 2023.

good riddance

yes probably since we are heading towards a one party system, with the judiciary shamelessly being used as the new mandate snatching machinery

The whole country is in one big ish, Thanks to the blind dictator and his cohorts

Wetin Concern Ebonyi and Edo? Pdp and Apc?

Na so una pushed Saraki

this country's politics is a joke

Everyone is witnessing how Obaseki and his acolytes are burning bridges and pulling all stops in their fight against Oshiomhole. Nobody should attack Oshiomhole when he retaliates by baring his fangs in ensuring he doesn't get the APC ticket. I am sure PDP won't mind giving Obaseki their ticket the way it is looking.

Obaseki is far gone already.

Umahi shd stop giving Obaseki fake hope fa.

When everything happen finish, Nigeria go be like Congo DR for Obaseki face

I wouldn't be surprised Umahi is APC mole in PDP!

okay oh!

Edo people will decide !

Even ten thousand Oshomole and buhari, plus Tanko, including inec chairman, plus tinubu can't try it

In politics everything is possibly

Is it not people's vote that will decide?

yes probably since we are heading towards a one party system, with the judiciary being used as the new mandate snatching machinery

Obaseki's position as a PDP mole is officially confirmed

Ok o

Umahi should concentrate on bringing good governance to his people and let Edo people decide their destiny

But wait, waiting concern agbero with overload o,,, waiting concern PDP gov with APC gov,, are u sure this governor is not doing anty party system

They keep fighting for power, but they know nor the hour.

Inside information has it that obaseki will defect to PDP to contest for the elections..so in essence the PDP primaries will come after that of APC

He is going nowhere. God gave Edo state a gift when oshiomole thought he was coming to be a puppet. His achievements shocks oshiomole everyday reason for the hatred

This umahi is doing well in Ebonyi state but his heart belongs to APC. na shame no gri am decamp. just like his political halort in Abia state. Ikpeazu.

They won't stop poke-nosing into other people's affairs, from Ebonyi st to Edo st.

That's why they're the most hated people in Nigeria...... useless people.
