APC just handed the Edo populace over to Obaseki on a platter..

One question:... have you heard from his contender?... Obaseki VS Oshomole everywhere.. grin grin

We have always known Iyamu was never a competition..
In 2016 it was Ize Iyamu (without incumbency or federal might) vs Oshiomole

My guy calm down

You already played a bad political moves

You should have atleast make your own loyalist dominate the house right from time. Or buy over atleast 8 of the 14 reps over.

Then your balls would have been saved now. Now they want to destroy your career.

Now you’re caught on two front
. The house can impeach you for gross misconduct
And you won’t even be on ballot , PDP won’t be able to field for the election.

If your opponents decide to play with you their prey before killing you , they won’t impeach you, they would wait until you have been defeated. Then impeach you. This would make you lose out. A disgraced former governor . You will be incarcerated.

Ambode is wiser than you Obaseki, A dog trying to fight a tiger is just making its death a sweet rancorous one.

In the meantime you would be more concerned to not be impeached. Because being impeached destroy your history as a governor. There is nothing more painful than that.

How can you be so poor. Who is your strategist sef? Go and kill Him. The man don scam you. Shuaibu has more to gain from your ordeal because he demonstrated one character everybody wants in life; LOYALTY
He was carried away with all the Edo no be Lagos gimmick grin

Deep down inside you, if both men were closely related to you, who would you be more proud of?

Remember, Ambode has still not gotten anything for stooping, and he is very unlikely to get after missing the senate.

Win or loose, Obaseki has made a name for himself as the man who wouldn't bow out without a fight. If he is eventually rigged out, he will enjoy his loot with a greater sense of dignity, telling himself " I fought like a man".

But i tell you bro, somewhere in Ambode's mind, he would be telling himself " I should have fought like a man. Maybe, Just maybe things wouldn't be this way".

In life, don't allow fear stop you from fighting just battles. Especially battles that you have nothing to loose even when you dont win.
After loosing a huge sum from the looted treasury on buying PDP slot, Obaseki will be on record as the first Edo governor to be impeached as well as being incarcerated for looting.

He has little or no control over the state assembly and this is one of his greatest errs, all the time in the past few years that he was using on unnecessary confrontations with ugly Osho and other politicians in the state is enough a time to plan and implement the political termination of Osho but rather he was only making noise.

Osho too will further see more political humiliations in the state in years to come but not on this coming election.

Fighting like a man or behaving like a mad man? How can you shut out majority of legislators elected by your citizens and claim to be working for them. Well, you believe what you believe and I believe what I believe. He's losing it seriously, in my opinion...

I have always said it, if Oshiomhole is not retired totally from politics, his highhandedness will ruin democracy and APC , the way he freely handed zamfara, Oyo, Edo to PDP.
This is what buhari saw and sacked him.
The explanation above is clear enough for dummy to see,but the love of argy bargy has overwhelmed their sense of reasoning.

What most of these contributing is that they have failed to state the simple fact of the issue in this edo state matter. Am from edo, the simple fact is that both obaseki and oshomole/Iyamu are all fighting for their own personal interest of power obsession at the expense of the interests of the state.this power struggle started quite a while . The edo state assembly crisis has been on before this current crisis.wereby obaseki refused to inaugurate some members in the same party because they were oshomole loyalists. This has now been the reverse now apparently.were is it that elected law makers that are supposed to serve the interests of their constituents now serve godfathers and all. This same issue started much earlier wereby the principal actors then who fought openly with battle axes and all in the National Assembly emerged principal government officials ruling edo state today.the state has nothing to write home about development wise.It is all noise that the politicians have been making. The PDP Obaseki ran to in his quest for governor at all cost is run by the worst caliber of persons headed by Dan Orbih whose credentials would leave you grappling. The political juggernaut being played with the parties and state assembly for these conversant with governance . Will see that the state is heading for a catastrophe ever imagined. You ask me what are they contesting for in the first place. If not for sheer obsession for power. Absolute power indexed corrupts absolutely.

Imagine the rubbish Obaseki is saying here...trying to sack duely elected legislators with peoples mandate?...Is Obaseki truly mad? Which tyrant is this? The legislature, executive and judiciary are separate organs of government in a democracy.....the executive cannot dictate or interfere in the legislature internal affairs. Vis vasa.

This is senseless.

You're fighting with only 10 members initially which to me he needed about 18.

Secondly, even the 10 members, you couldn't keep and maintain them. You have lost 3 again to your enemies.

To you, is Obaseki a politician?

To me, he's a stupid confused naive ugly fellow filled with bitterness in his heart.
How is he stupid ?, politics is a game of numbers.. the playing field is with the masses, that’s why they rig elections, because to you it’s all about the politicians not the masses, it’s who the masses want should be elected normally not who the legislative want, Oshiomhole won without legislative you remember ? Even at the court. Let the people of Edo decide not the house of assembly members who could not win edo for presidential election. Pdp have a say there. Obaseki with his 30 percent plus normal pdp might be a win win, you grab, apc know they need to work hard, very hard, Obaseki and pdp is no work over, Apc have never won there presidential elections.

People who couldn’t win their polling units in presidential election last year. Lol, think out of the box, not just because the legislative, the masses should chose who they want not the legislative

*Failed Edo Assembly invasion an attempted coup d’état - Obaseki*

*_...says govt will take all steps necessary to defend rule of law_*

*_...salutes Edo people for thwarting evil plans_*

Edo State Governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki, has described the failed invasion of the state House of Assembly Complex as an attempted coup d’état that is tantamount to treason and contrary to the provisions of the Nigerian Constitution.

Obaseki who said this in a statewide broadcast on Friday, assured that his administration will take all steps necessary to defend the rule of law and democratic ideals.

“Any person or group of persons who set out to test our will in this regard will meet with the full wrath of the law," the governor warned.

He noted: "These events portend grave danger to the safety and security of our polity. It had all the hallmarks of an attempted coup d’état. 

“The people of Edo State rose as one to prevent the desecration of our democracy. It is however worrisome that certain persons are willing to plunge the society into avoidable anarchy and conflict just to satisfy their illegitimate objectives."

According to the Governor, "the crisis in the Edo State legislature dates back to June 17th, 2019, when upon my proclamation of the 7th Edo State House of Assembly, some members-elect refused to present themselves for inauguration.

“The Federal High Court sitting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State in a judgement delivered on the 12th of September, 2019, decided that my proclamation of the House of Assembly was lawful and that the National Assembly could not take over the function of the Edo State House of Assembly as the conditions for doing so did not exist.

“The court judgement affirmed that the Assembly was duly inaugurated and held that the Governor or any other person could not issue another proclamation."

He explained that "Even after this judgement, the 14 members-elect stayed away from the House and refused to be inaugurated to perform their elected role of representing their constituencies. Having failed to sit for over 180 sitting days, the leadership of the House of Assembly had no option but to declare their seats vacant and requested the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to conduct fresh elections to fill the vacancies that had then been created.

"Following this action by the leadership of the House, the 14 members-elect approached the Federal High Court, Abuja, to challenge the constitutionality or otherwise of the declaration of their seats vacant. This suit is still pending in the court."

Obaseki noted that "This unfortunate situation has festered because a former governor of the state is bent on throwing the state into crisis ahead of the forthcoming governorship elections."

"I want to salute the resolve of all well-meaning Edo people in standing up to thwart the evil plans of these undemocratic elements who are bent on perpetrating an illegal assault on our democracy by the purported inauguration in a private residence.

"These events portend grave danger to the safety and security of our polity. It had all the hallmarks of an attempted coup d’état. The people of Edo State rose as one to prevent the desecration of our democracy. It is however worrisome that certain persons are willing to plunge the society into avoidable anarchy and conflict just to satisfy their illegitimate objectives.

"These acts are tantamount to treason, contrary to the provisions of the Nigerian Constitution.

"Be assured, dear people of Edo State, that this government will take all steps necessary to defend the rule of law and democratic ideals. Any person or group of persons who set out to test our will in this regard will meet with the full wrath of the law," he said.

If they can get 253 in GovernorShip, that’s 60k difference, imagine the small 20 to 30 percent Apc following Obaseki, added to the 253 and the whole thuggish both Apc and pdp will use, he stand a big chance, big big chance, reason am. The legislative are not the masses. The senators were not with Wike, so your masses, the guy stand a chance, there was never a big difference in the Apc and pdp in edo.

From all we read and watched on the news, the only person that led an "invasion" of the state assembly is the governor himself when he led thugs to vandalise the building.

The other members were nowhere near the EDHA when the governor and his deputy supervised the ransacking and vandalisation of the Hoise of Assembly in the name of "renovation."
