Obaseki is not a politician aswear.
You had over 2 years to finish Oshiomole's structure in the state and put in place yours but he concentrated all his arsenal in bringing Oshiomole down not knowing that Oshiomole is just the head of a structure/cartel that dominate the state.
2019 general election presented him the golden opportunity to put his loyal men in place since the state party structure is in his grip but he slept off and only woke during their inauguration and swearing in, or how do you explain why over 18 out of 24 members of the state HOA will be in your enemies camp?
You checkmated Kabaka and Co without putting your men in place leaving them to still run the street.
Obaseki never had a plan B (defecting to PDP), he thought Oshiomole would go down soon enough to provide an easier route for him. But in politics you need to have plan A, B and C.

Only a political neophyte will downplay this defections.

I wish him the best sha.

Though the project is privately funded and executed by a Chinese company ( https://www.aipccenergy.com ) same as Koko/Umusadege (delta) and ologbo (Edo), the support of both the FG and Edo/Delta State in providing licences and enabling environment should be commended.

Ooni:
Moreover some of them even said he mixed mixed "Yusuf" which is for muslims with "Chi" which I think means God almighty in Ibo languge which made God to strike him in kogi.

I don't know which of these claims is true but I have lived with ibos in Lagos and can tell you they give no damn which religion you practice.

When will you be proud of your Igbo heritage?
When did it become a crime/shame to be called Igbo?

SLAP44:
Why didn't he go with the next governor of Lagos, MC Oluomo?

MC Oluomo was busy with the red cap chiefs of Alaigbo who came to pay homage and show their respect.
If you look closely, I'm sure you'll see your village Igwe struggling to get a selfie that will be framed and hung in the palace chamber.

You noticed someone is mentally ill and you're still engaging him in discussion.
There's a need to build more psychiatric and rehabilitation center in that part of the country. Most of them are mentally imbalanced.

MurderX:
Obaseki must have been facing hell if all theae people were imposed on him by Oshiomole and Tinubu. How did Taiwo Akerele, an ondo state indigene become Chief of Staff in Edo state....APC power. No wonder Obaseki couldn't breathe.

Please stop misinforming others with your ignorance. Taiwo Akerele is an Igarra man from Akoko Edo.

Lol... YouTube video Lol...someone that naturalised in Benin is what u are holding onto...
So answer me this question
Are his parents Benin?
What does Ojo mean in Benin since u know more abt Benin than me
who made him music legend sef

lol, what else do you want, you don't want Facebook profiles, what can be more evidential than a video.
Maybe you should ask elderly people around you who he was, I'm sure you're indomie generation lol

Etinosa1234:
Ohk


What tribe would u say this two people belong to
Igbo or Yoruba

Classic example of never take Facebook as ur authority

Everyone knows Ifeanyi is an Igbo woman married to pastor Paul Adefarasin a Yoruba man, Ifeanyi is not her surname.

Tobi Emeka is an Igbo, Igbos bears Tobichukwu just like the yorubas have Oluwatobi and Tobi is not a Yoruba surname.

NB: If you want me to start posting Benin people (I mean Men, not children or women) with patriarchal Yoruba surname from Facebook then this thread won't end. But it makes no sense intruding on people's privacy just to prove a point on a faceless forum

Etinosa1234:
Anybody that bears Ajayi is not from Benin......
After all names have meaning so can u confidently tell me the meaning of Ojo, Ajayi since u are so sure of ur self
I've seen someone that bears Ikechukwu but identifies as Yoruba...
I've also seen some one that bears Tobi but identifies as Hausa


No Benin person bears Ajayi, Ojo

When u get to Benin ..Don't Goan disgrace ur self there sha

That's the Benin music legend, Prince Monday Ojo
https://www.google.com/url?q=https://m.youtube.com/watch%3Fv%3DvHAdaOrttQM&sa=U&ved=2ahUKEwjJvNf6xO3qAhWDlqQKHYVCBu8QtwIwAXoECAIQAQ&usg=AOvVaw1RwgF3GXDtMhDWwKM-zGuf

Etinosa1234:
So Facebook is your source
Well.. lemme correct that notion... Benin people don't understand Yoruba, they don't bear Yoruba names as their first name
There are people born of mixed marriages...they are most likely to put the names given to them by both families.. haven't u seen someone bearing Femi Ikechukwu...or other mixed names
Pls and don't use Facebook as ur authority on ethnic issues..

NO BENIN PERSON BEARS AYO, ALABI, BALOGUN...Do u understand now
Our names are Etinosa, Eghosa, Itohan, Mudia and the likes and its nothing similar to Yoruba names.. thanks


To think u were saying this thing confidently

Lol...keep deceiving yourself. A notable sport analyst from Benin bears Ajayi (as surname), the Benin music legend Prince Monday Ojo bears Ojo a close friend bears Adeniji as surname and he's from benin and many more.

NB: How do you know a person better than the bio-data they willingly provided on their Facebook profile?

Etinosa1234:
Pls....no Benin person bears Ajayi,ojo and the likes

stop lieing to suit ur narrative

Lol, a simple search on Facebook will clear your doubt. Just type those names and add Benin.

bigpriik:
You are intelligent.

Thanks boss

macof:
I am well aware of his intellectual and psychological problems. He opens new accounts here every week after being embarrassed with the last one
@inSanity33 get ready to delete this moniker too

Lol, the guy's insanity is too unique it can only be inherited.

macof:
Smh. Like I said you are a fool

No utter of sense in a human being who would still argue against a clear cut text like

So the "Yoruba Obbas" is the Omonoba of Benin? the Benin King is now Yoruba?
1. Obbas (plural)
2. Obbas being Yoruba

All clearly stated by this fool still arguing. You are a brick wall not a human being
Empty head

@ ;bold. Apparently this fool can't read either. Where did you see all this in this screenshot.

FYI. Ooni and Aláàfin titles are hereditary. One can only ascend the throne by belonging to one of the designated royal families.
Or your stupidity doesn't let you know what "hereditary" means?



After showing this text

You still in a response to the text ask for a text from the era calling Yoruba by the title Ọba

Smh. You better go and take your medication.

Lmao. This text

Doesn't in any way imply Yorùbáland being under the authority of the Ọmọnọba of Benin
"la Protection de l'oba d'oueni serait assez puisannte pour nous defendre dans le Yebou et le Yarribah"
"the protection of the Ọmọnọba of Benin should be powerful enough to defend us in Ijebu and Oyo empire"[ /i]

Meaning that it is expected to be safe in a foreign country when under the protection of a known king of a neighbouring kingdom.
In contrast [i]"dans le Borghou et le Haoussa, e'etait moins sur, le roi de Benin n'y etant point assez connu our.."
"the Ọmọnọba is not known well enough in Borgu or Hausa country to receive such protection"


This text has nothing to do with authority

Arguing further with that guy is a waste of time and intellectual capacity. He's a troll without substance.

Sanity33:
Dude if you've got maps, I am not stopping you from posting. Actually I urge you to post them.
Also your evidence from Crowther, I never saw it !
Do you care to post it rather than claim you did post it ?
Dude, stop claiming you have this and that, just post the damn thing already !

Lol...I won't go down the lane of posting irrelevant Maps to buttress my claim and derailing the thread, your maps shows nothing. Google is your friend if you need maps.
There are millions of Yoruba Bible in print (and also soft/E-copies, you can lay your hand on any to confirm.

What you should explain to all is how a Yoruba nation that occupies over 10 times the landmass of Bini with population over ten times that of Bini originates from a tiny Bini Kingdom of few LGA's.

And also tell us why the Yoruba exert so much influence on the Bini without an iota of Benin influence on the Yoruba.

While you're at that, please tell us the Bini meaning of the following Yoruba names you guys bears : Ajayi, Ojo, Olawole, Akerejola, Oladele, Olabisi, Ayo, Adetutu, Owolabi, Akerele, Ogun, Balogun, Kola, Taiwo, Idowu, Adepoju, Shola, Dada, Ajose, Shobowale, Alaba etc.

And I'll be glad if you can tell us just ONE Yoruba person that bears a Bini name, just ONE.

ContractKiller:
The hypothesis of Benin as the origin of yorubas makes more sense than the nonsense pseudo history of Mecca being the homeland of yorubas.

Thank God you said hypothesis, not fact.
You know a Dog giving birth to an Elephant can also make some comedic hypothesis...lol

Sanity33:
You need to take a look at precolonial maps before you bury yourself with delusion.

Stop running around in cycle, the ignorant one here is you.
You first claim Yorubas adopted the word Oba in the 1930's, I gave you evidence of Oba being used by Ajayi Crowther as far back as 1843 in the Yoruba translation of the KJV without a rebuttal from you.

I presented simple logic any sane mind should understand you're here showing us some fabricated precolonial map.
Who doesn't know that Maps aren't constant?
Should I show you the old Oyo map that included Dahomey (Benin republic) Jebba and Lokoja right?
Or the Biafran Map that included the whole core Niger delta?
Or the Roman empire map that included about 1/3 of the world landmass?

Please come up with something logical...please na beg I dey beg you.

dederocs:
Do you know about the Ogiso dynasty?
Do you know about ogodomigodo?
The Benin empire and throne had been existing for thousands of years, you have to learn further than Ajayi Crowther using the Oba in his books, the entire South region of Nigeria, started from Benin Kingdom.
How can a child give birth to his father, what i say here is not what matters, just research history yourself.

Please stop letting some old wives fairytale and tales by moonlight becloud your senses of reasoning and judgement. Logic as obtained in the Set theory will inform you that a subset can never be greater than the Universal set.
How a tiny Benin Kingdom of some few LGA's begat a Yoruba Kingdom that transcend nations (Benin Republic, Togo, Brazil, Haiti etc) and continents can only be explained by drunks.

How the so called child seems to have so much influence over the father without an iota of influence on the child should be a mystery.
You bear Yoruba ancestral names like Ajayi, Ojo, Alao, Alabi etc, you practice the age-long Yoruba elders cult (Ogboni) and still you're claiming one yeye fatherhood, please...lol

Sanity33:
Oba is not a Yoruba word and Yoruba chiefs adopted it in the 1930's. The original owner is the Oba of Benin. Omo n'Oba n'Edo.

Please stop being foolish, as far back as 1843 Ajayi Crowther translated the KJV Bible to Yoruba language with Hundreds of Obas meaning King in the text.

I pity those people that carry Party(ies) for head like gala (Except if you're earning from it...all na hustle).
When are we going to get the memo that this guys don't give a fvck about us or any idealogy but their selfish interest.

When did an Abia man become wiser than the Anambra man to warrant a confusionist like Nnamdi Kanu to order Anambra people not to vote while his Abia governor is still on seat?

May God grant him eternal rest

We Ndigbo are less concern about what happens to Alaigbo, our focus is to wail about others. It's Tinubu's duty to see to the development of Alaigbo, after all he collected all our Federal allocation and IGR.

Much obliged

Stop camouflaging your mental bankruptcy with your emotional tears and wailing.
I never mentioned any tribe in my post, but if my post perfectly matched yours then I owe you no apology. I'm responsible for what I type and not what you understand.

As regard the rest of your post, it shows your usual emotional, daft and unintelligent rants and wailing...The pain is on you boy.

If markets can open, if people can still enter danfo (public transport), then I see no reason why students shouldn't be able to write their exams with enough classrooms to maintain maximum social distancing and order while following other necessary precautions and procedures.

LaboPolitics:
You see why we call yorubas mongols?

He showed a gazzette written by gowon's FG adminstration taking accolade for releasing Awolowo. And I ask my people, is Gowon supposed to give the accolade and credit to his enemy Ojukwu who controlled all the prison in the Eastern region after the hausa and the yoruba army officers and prison officers left the East?

Foreign and neutral journalists like Federick forsyth, Auberon Waugh who were on ground know it was Ojukwu and the East who released Awo and they are the ones we will listen to, not Gowon and clearly biased federal records.

When yoruba go get sense abeg?

Please show us the gazzete of Biafra attesting to the release of Awolowo by Ojukwu.

I wonder where all the wise men from the east are? you guys on NL are a total disgrace to the cerebral Igbos that we know.

Awolowo was released almost a year ( August 1966) before the declaration of biafra (may 1967), so how on Earth will a regional governor release a Federal prisoner charged with treasonable felony against the nation, in a Federal prison under a United Nigeria? Agunyi Ironsi was head of states for months and he and his brother Ojukwu didn't release Awo and you're telling us Ojukwu released Awo after Gowon ascended power right? Ojukwu released Awo and he wasn't rearrested in Lagos but was rather made the "vice president" by Gowon right?

You must learn to realize that religiously holding on to the oral history of your illiterate and mischievous forbears without facts will make you look stupid.

Arguing with this Ipob minions on NL is a waste of time and mental capacity.
