Kikikikikikiki, the number 1 godfather in Edo is saying godfatherism must end grin. Just like Borrowhari said he will end Boko Haram grin. Can anyone, anyone at all become Governor in Edo, without going through "consultation" or "blessing" with the Oba? Let's call a spade a spade. Kings are the number one godfathers in this country. If godfatherism must end, then the royal system must also end.
stop talking nonsense okay

That is why the oba is the most respected and feared traditional ruler in Nigeria.
You can see from the article he is advocating for direct primary and elimination of Godfatherism. Which means he doesn't give a fuckkk about obaseki, ize iyamu and oshiomhole



APC is going for Consensus....there might be no primaries...they are adopting that Useless thief Ize-Iyamu

Who else noticed how Dino melaye has been quiet and out of our political spheres he didn't say or post anything about the rifts between obaseki and oshomole or the crisis in APC and aso rock... Dino melaye is a friend of Hushpuppi,they do deals together and he has been scared of his name not been mentioned or dented he has been looking for ways to run out of Nigeria to go settle where it will be hard to track him down. As times goes by we will see and hear what's Truely happening

Direct primary is the best form of democratic process. It eradicates consensus candidature.
Only a corrupt person will support indirect primaries.
Direct primary will assure that a popular candidate in the party emerges and not a candidate that is able to bride the party excos. In direct primary, you can bride all party members. This was established in the 2019 primaries.

Oba should not get himself involve this dirty thing. My best advise for him. Although their the same .
Neutrality does not mean collecting money from politicians and keeping quiet. As it is common in Nigeria. Like some monarchs went to collect money from Abacha and left Abiola to his fate.

Neutrality also means admonishing politicians generally to shun actions that disenfranchise the masses and are inimical to democracy.

Oba already reminded both politicians (Obaseki and Osho) in December that it was his grandfather who led fight for creation of Midwest. From which Edo and Delta states emerged. His father led efforts for Edo State.

That he cannot stand akimbo and allow those who don't know how the state came about to set it on fire.

This was after he went to see Buhari and ask him and his party to resolve the Obaseki /Oshiomhole issue. Yet their fight continued.

Stop talking nonsense!! I'm a Benin man, but all traditional rulers are paid by their respective state government, and the state government has the sole powers to dethrone any Oba, Emir, Obi etc in their respective states!! Stop hyping these traditional rulers!!

They have no idea. In Benin all that govt staff of office is formality. It means nothing. No prince will take the throne. No king crowner chiefs will even enter Palace.

The seven hereditary king crowners (not king makers as often said) the Uzama Elders or Ancient Edion, more correctly obey an oath over 1200 years old to ensure monarchical continuity. They simply shunned British pressure to commit the taboo between 1897 and 1914.

Benin monarchy is not highest bidder or governor selected kingship that applies elsewhere.

Godfathers can never be eradicated from Nigeria politics, The only prayer we should pray is to have a good one. If one godfather is dethroned, another will be pronounced

Even abroad, godfatherism still exists... The difference is that they are smart and prudent enough to stay well concealed behind the scenes pulling the strings!!!

The ones here are too moronic and insensitive to bother hiding their intentions.
