I am writing this piece in response to certain individuals who has sought to know the achievement of the pastor Osagie ize-Iyamu.
Well to being, it is noteworthy that we bear in mind that ize iyamu has only been a government appointee and has never been elected. However, let me give us a run down of the achievements of ize iyamu.
Ize iyamu served as a Chief of Staff and Secretary to the Edo state government from 1999 to 2007. In that position he was able to influence world banks projects to Edo state. These world bank projects benefited the rural communities by providing portable water through boreholes and also in road construction.
Before 1999, the erosion problems in most parts of Edo state especially Benin city was best described as 'catastrophic'. However, through these world bank projects attracted by ize Iyamu, help came to the people and drainage was constructed along with moats to control these erosion.if you want to counter these claims, I dare you to try.
A good example is aduwawa community and eweka area in ikpoba-okha, Edo state. You can go and ask people in that areas how erosion was for them before world bank came to their rescue. Some almost abandoned their houses.
Also, ize iyamu attracted both direct foreign and local investments to Edo state even as a secretary to the state government. This resulted in the industrial revolution of the state that gave birth to factories such as cassavita plant in uromi, fruit juice plant in Ehor amongst others. Again, I dare anyone from Edo state to counter these claims.
Ize iyamu also midwife the starting and completion of iguosa 162 unit housing estate which today is providing low cost housing for the poor in Edo state. Since then till date, no governor in Edo state has ever built a housing estate for Edo people.
As a recognition for ize iyamu hard work, then vice president Atiku Abubakar came to Edo state to commission these projects. I dare Atiku to deny this!
On an individual level, pastor Osagie ize iyamu is a lawyer and a successful business man. He owns the prestigious I.O farms in Benin city which is a model farm for our generation. The farm which is more than 20 years old has employed more than 500 youths and more than 1000 indirectly. The facts are there if you wish to check.
As a matter of fact, ize iyamu farm has the best livestock blueprints and if these blueprints was implemented 20 years ago, there would have not been fulani-farmers clashes in Edo and Nigeria as a whole today. I repeat, I dare anyone to challenge these facts.
Now let talk of Obaseki. The Governor in 2016 promised Edo people 200 thousand jobs, gelegele sea port, Azura power station, but as we speak none of these promises has been meant. In fact power supply in Edo state has gotten worse since obaseki took power. The people of Ekpoma will not forget how they spent 3 months in darkness in 2017.
As a matter of fact the power condition of the state went so bad that the governor had a spat with BEDC boss who he allegedly sent out of a meeting in government house!
As we also speak, gelegele sea port and the 200 thousand jobs Obaseki promised are only a mirage. Edo youths has never been this jobless. I challenge the government of Godwin obaseki to published the names of persons employed through his 'Edo jobs' program in the last four years. In fact what we have on records is that he employed a patry number of persons into Edo civil services in 2018.
How does employing more people into Edo civil service amount to job creation? To me, that is 'wage bill creation' not job creation. Civil service employment does not improve the revenue of a state but rather overburden the wage bill of the state.
To create jobs you must industrialized, so I challenge obaseki government to show me any industry they build, revive or strengthened in the last four years and I promise I will join his camp with immediate effect. Edo people produce 30% rice consumed in this country, yet the state does not have a single state owned rice milling factory! The poor farmers has to mill rice with local drums and sunlight. What a shame.
Obaseki only achievement that we know is the renovation of Edo civil service building, painting of agbado grammar school and construction of few substandard roads which as we speak has begin to pull off in less than one rainny season.
Also, since obaseki claim to be a business man, I therefore challenge the governor to provide the names of his business in Edo state that has employed any Edo youth, at least I just mentioned ize iyamu farms that has been employing youth. Obaseki claim to be a business man but how has his business help the common Edo man? What kind of business is he into? Or is it a wake and see business?
Obaseki followers has not been able to tell us his achievement in a whole 4 Years. They have not been able to show us any project started and completed by obaseki in four years, yet they are clamouring for another four years. What a shame!
In fact, comparing obaseki's achievement to ize iyamu is like comparing a koisk and a mall. Ize iyamu is obviously the better candidate for Edo people.

OK we hear you.So since he achieved all this why did Oshiomole refused yo give him any board appointment, despite the fact that he campaigned for Osho?if you can answer this question I will shift my support from Godwin to Iyamu.

Ehinmen3:


you and your unproductive comments

Can you book for a debate in any of the TV station? Let's meet face to face to talk politics in Edo State. I'm not a politician but I'm not politically dull. Have been following Edo politics for years, you can't deceive me with your bought conscience.

He will never respond to this.

This Thread Dose Not Hold Watter.

It is very stupid to compare obaseki and Ize Iyamu in all ramification. Oshiomole's govt succeeded because of Obaseki, bringing power supply into the matter is very very stupid, is obaseki the federal govt that privatize power. If obaseki's govt didn't work, Oshiomole and is cohort are to be blamed

Unigrad:

He will never respond to this.

Yes I knw he can never answer.I think we should start asking then the question henceforth, useless people.. Obaseki is a goal..4+4=8 Torwagba..

learn to read before you comment, that's why your likes are never objective

How does a chief of staff influence world bank projects? if you said he was commissioner for works, i would have maybe given it a thought.

Nawa oo..... No constructive comment, just propaganda because the incumbent is no longer in your party.

N.B We have paid ApC agent on this forum, all they do is create useless propaganda, attack opinions different from their's and go about creating multiple moniker.

OP you should be ashamed of yourself, you traded the future for bread crumbs from this politicians.

How I wish Edo people will sly these chameleon that haved toyed with our emotions over a long time.

I will be the happiest if some other guy from a different party is chosen rather than these goats in animal skin.
