Foiled? May God be praised. You can't align with Wike without borrowing some courage and audacity. Obaseki has proven he is a man with balls and APC game plan falling like a pack of cards. Hard core APC even know dat under an egalitarian environment there is no way Ize Iyamu with all d collateral damage done on him by Oshiomole can win d election but are only banking on Federal might

seanfer:
Are you saying the PDP led FG under GEJ that did what i wrote were shameless?
This is Naija politics... If Obaseki can inaugurate 10 out of 24 members in the night and nothing happened, other parties can do worst and nothing will also happen.

seanfer:
Amaechi did the same thing when PDP wanted to use Omangwa stadium for their presidential rally in 2015.... It took the FG and PDP less than 1 hour to remove everything.... So i don't see any obstacle here if those against the Governor really mean business.

Oya and ur Lagos people go dere and remove it na..... Edo is not lagos

Obaseki is too gentle because he ought to have declare the seat of those who fail to be inaugurated vacant despite the fact that he has court order.
it is not late Sha. I wish I can be a man of God like him.

Truly, Edo no Lagos.

Hardtalk:
There’s No Stopping Fashola’s Probe —Keyamo

Lagos lawyer and counsel to the Lagos State House of Assembly, Mr. Festus Keyamo says nothing would stop the House from probing allegations of financial misappropriation against Governor Babatunde Fashola.

He called on the governor to submit himself to probe in order to clear himself, saying there was no hiding through court injunction to dodge the probe against him.

The State House of Assembly had yesterday set up a fresh 7-member committee to probe allegations against the governor by the True Face of Lagos, which staged a protest to the House recently to demand probe of the governor.

Speaking with P.M.NEWS this morning, Keyamo said that the governor should be probed, adding that the accolades the governor received in the media should not divert attention from the real thing.

“Every public officer has a duty to give account of stewardship no matter the height of praise singing he receives from the press. The office you are occupying is not your father’s property but the public.

“Probe is not the same thing as verdict of guilt, but an opportunity for one to clear himself. If Fashola believes his hands are clean, now is the opportunity for him to shine,” he stated.

According to him, “Fashola should take the path of honour and clear himself of the allegations. He can’t continue to hide under court injunction.

“If you say you plant grass and flower, come and tell the people how much you spent in planting them, tell them how you spent their money because it is not your father’s money.

“The House must go ahead with the probe because it is their constitutional and moral duty to do what they want to do. They have now properly published the allegations in their official journal.”

Comrade Bamidele Aturu, who was counsel to Mr. Richard Akinola, the man who first went to court to stop the House from probing the governor, said “we will assess our legal option and deal with the issue.”

Aturu stated that if the House erred in setting up the new committee, it would be challenged in the court, saying that “we are for democracy and probity.”

Also, Majority Leader, Lagos Assembly, Hon. Kolawole Taiwo said the House had already published the allegations in the Assembly’s journal, saying that the House would go ahead with the probe.

What a surprising strategy.

There is something about this man obaseki that really surprised me.

Who declears a legislative seat vacant? The governor? You are a joke. This whole drama is by Obaseki and the PDP. They have refused to campaign for the forth coming election because they have nothing tangible on ground instead they resort to drama to gain sympathy from gullible people like you. The 14 yet to be sworn in members of the house don't need to force themselves into the complex for seating.They reserve the right to be sworn in as members elect. They are free to come for inauguration as they wish anytime. Obaseki, shaibu and the PDP should know that even at all if the law makers loyal to obaseki can sit in government house then the others can sit anywhere and be inaugurated for the same reason of fumigation.

Obaseki should bring in more granites and sands infact to cover the entire front of the complex end to end and as tall as a story building and lets see how apc can get in.

I hate apc too much.

Na today I know say Edo people are with the Governor. I dey among the mammoth crowd gathered at ring road presently. The House of Assembly chamber is presently crowded by Edolites who upon hearing about the planned coup by Oshiomothief started trooping to Osadebe complex to ensure the Governor and assembly members are protected. The crowd has overwhelmed the invading policemen on hatchet assignment.

We keep vigil here !

More sands and building materials on the way.

Edo says No to godfatherism

Omoluabi16:
Lol. Obaseki, ize iyamu, oshiomole and the rest of the crew are engaging in all this shenanigans because they love the people and want to serve them. We just pray the election is peaceful with no loss of lives.

You're there and can't upload pictures? Clap for yourself.

Esseite:
Buhari does not even have that time, he is trying to save face on his international reputation... from El-rufai's countenance, you can draw a conclusion..

Once the people see brazen federal might, Ize-Iyamu would loose that last chunk of sympathy voters..

Johnsown1:
Then tell me the reason while this country is not a mess. Other countries are inventing and upgrading their securities while Nigeria leaders are busy with heavy loan and politics.
