Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos

The Lagos State All Progressives Congress (APC) has chided the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State, accusing them of chasing shadows with their baseless allegations against the party and its National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu.

According to the party’s chairman, Alhaji Tunde Balogun, Obaseki is the architect of his own imminent defeat in Saturday’s governorship election.

The PDP and Obaseki had alleged that the APC and Asiwaju Tinubu were planning to rig the election and that the party had sourced N300 million form ocal councils in the state for the purpose.

Reacting to the allegation, Balogun said: “Overwhelmed by the prospects of grim failure in this weekend’s governorship election in Edo, the Peoples Democratic Party and its mercenary candidate Godwin Obaseki, have resorted to chasing their own dark shadows.”

“The governor is casting false accusation and blame at everybody for his imminent defeat. However, the person he should blame the most is the person to whom he dare not admit the truth – himself.”


“He has been the chief architect of his own defeat to conceal this reality he has dedicated himself to construct an edifice the foundation of which is made of fiction and the floors of which are the stuff of malice and lies.”

“The latest untruth of the PDP and Obaseki is the evil lie that All Progressives Congress and our National Leader, Asiwaju Bola Tinubu, plan to rig the election and buying votes with N300 million allegedly polled from local councils in Lagos State.”

“One must say that Obaseki has a fertile if wild and paranoid imagination. Had he better used that imagination to govern wisely instead of governing as if he were a conquering invader, then he would not be in the pitiable circumstance he now finds himself. Obaseki has always been his own and his state’s worst enemy.”

“Ordinarily, we would not dignify Obaseki’s desperation with a response, we know the poor man is losing his already feint grip on reality. His brain now walks the halls of fantasyland where he goes about scaring himself with images that exist only in his guilty mind. His allegation is a pure malicious lie and after he loses his immunity as governor he will be asked to pay for this slander.”

“In making this allegation, Obaseki engages in a misdirection classic to people of his mendacious and mean ilk. The very wrong which he falsely attributes to others is the very thing he has in his dark heart to do himself. Obaseki plans on stealing money from Edo’s public purse to fund his own ambitions. In that this is what is on his mind, he cannot help but believe that everyone is as devious as he is. It is said that a thief is the person most worried about some stealing from him and a liar most preoccupied with being lied to. Obaseki’s fabrications prove the wisdom of these maxims.”

“As such, Obaseki is a study of political pathology. Failing to salvage his doomed campaign, Obaseki is now trying to attribute his impending loss to causes other than his imperious character and mean-spirited form of personal leadership. It is Obaseki who seeks to rig the election because he knows tilting the playing field is the only way he can win. Thus, he employs the sophomoric distraction.”

“He is acting much like the criminal who shouts that one house is being robbed. With everyone’s attention thusly diverted, he believes he will be free to break into another. But the electorate is wise to his ways and in fact the electorate in its collective wisdom is much wiser than Obaseki.”

“They will not be fooled by his false allegations. They perfectly understand the personal meanness and lack of fundamental goodness of this ill-tempered man. The lie about rigging is Obaseki’s and his cohorts’ desperate heave to gain public sympathy.”

However, they deserve no sympathy they have gone about like bullies and braggarts all along. Now, that they face the reality of the honest electoral contest before them, they get weakened and begin to sweat lie ice melting in the midday sun. If he is so tough and strong, he should stand up like the tough guy he claims to be and squarely face what is about to come.”

“Neither the APC nor Asiwaju Bola Tinubu will rig this or any other election. If Obaseki wants to find the riggers, he should look at his own reflection and call his fellow PDP leaders to do the same.”

“APC has no need to do anything, but ask our supporters to vote on Election Day. Pastor Ize-Iyamu is an honorable and visionary man who has won the hearts of Edo people for his sterling leadership qualities, past excellent records in public service and robust agenda to improve the daily lives of Edo people. Ise-Iyamu is a man of integrity who keeps to his words and is committed to working in the interest of Edo people.”

“Obaseki says our national leader has no business in Edo, someone should remind Obaseki that he once begged Asiwaju and others to help him in Edo. Someone should also remind him that Asiwaju is a Nigerian who has freedom of speech and a right to political association that even Obaseki dare not attempt to abridge.”

“Asiwaju believes in democracy and rule of law in any part of the country. He believes in progressive good governance for the people. He sees unity of purpose throughout the country that Nigeria may continue along the path of full and enduring development. While these good things do not sit well with Obaseki, they are what the people want and what the country needs.”

“Because of this, Obaseki’s days as governor are severely numbered, no matter the outlandish lies he coughs out. By his consistent assault on democracy and progress in Edo, Obaseki does not deserve another term in office. The people of Edo should send him home on Saturday.”

Tinubu/Oshiomole thought chasing Obaseki from APC will end him,it just rejuvenated the monster in him...
They will cry blood

Don't mind the ingrate....He is gone...

Obaseki on Saturday will learn what's karma.

Well, all man for himself now since you couldn't help when he needed it the most, he has likewise moved on. Chai, the formidable forces against Obaseki is mind-blowing! Hope the best candidate wins.

You lied. Who is Tinubu in the first place? He can not dictate for Edo people.

Simple English these Tinubu drugged babies won't get it.

EDO no be Lagos.......!!

Stay off. ......Stay away. ..........Zero godfather

Yes for those Twisting stories because Obaseki is Making a history

He was directed to meet Tinubu by the APC governors forum Who also followed Obadeki with 5 other Governors to show humility and ask Tinubu to wade in Thinking that Tinubu is a responsible elder to pacify and allow him participate in primaries, But Tinubu foolishly betrayed and Obaseki Disgraced both Oshiomole And Tinubu and Decamp to secure Pdp ticket ON ORDERS OF APC GOVERNORS who has a score to settle and extingush Oshiomole politically...The APC Caretaker chairman Buni and Giedom has assured Obaseki of support
This Election is a One off to show Tinubu that his grip on Apc through Oshiomole has been reduced drastically

Tinubu was expecting Obaseki to be a Coward and be silenced Like Ambode who after obeying Tinubu was forced into extinction

If there is anybody that the leadership of Apc wanted to retire today..its Adams Oshiomile that is evidence with the speed HIS PORTRAIT WAS VANDALISED AND UPROOTED AT THE APC NATIONAL SECRETARIAT...and how his NWC members are shut out completely out of the monitoring of Edo election by Buni You will realize why Obaseki is so confident

Tinubu will be taught a lesson...Edo is Not Lagos

Tinubu the master strategist will show him the way out come Sat..

He has publicly said to Nigerians that Edo no be Lagos

Iyoooo cartel

And he refused to help and and obaseki moved on instead of wallowing in cowardice like Mrs ambode the sissy did. That's a real man for you.

Edo no be lagos, the deported drug baron will be disgraced alongside the lizard face called oshimole come Saturday.

4+4 is assured!

Beg him Tinubu for what ?

Is it Tinubu that misguided him to deprived 14 law makers of their constitutional right ?

When all Obas, institutions nd parties were sourcing for reconciliation btw him and other law makers was it the Tinubu that made him adamantly hell bent to his stubbornness ?

Learn how to use d little brain left in the skull

And Ambode is enjoying his retirement in peace right ?

Wait and see the calamities awaiting the Obamumu that allowed himself to be used by task collectors and miscreant Iyanminrin pigs

Really? Are you now in support of strict godfatherism? Enjoying is peace and Lagos is now being governed by an ex psychiatric hospital patient.
Shame

Enwhen:



Tinubu will learn alot from Edo election

And if iyamu wins?

TheChameleon:


And if iyamu wins?

It will be all about 2023 ... Generally , the election is about 2023 ... Obaseki is not a PDP member , pls note this ahead. U will do well to remind me I said it by next year October .

Their usual tones after Saturday: ''Democracy is seriouly in danger", ''The election was massively rigged in Oredo". Their day of reckoning is here. POIGANI, The Simple Agenda! Saturday beckons...

Tinubu that could not win Lagos ...until he rolled in bullion van and thugs

He should have tested his might in Lagos during presidential election without the use of hoodlums

When you get to the peak, the only way available is down, I think Tinubu got to his peak in 2015 with making Buhari president..

It's just a natural law..

Tinubu will not stop at anything to make Obaseki a scape goat

Obaseki beg Tinubu what then did Tinubu do instead wanted to disgrace Obaseki like he did to Ambode but little did he know that Obaseki is a blessed Child, a child that is destined to win all his battles.

This statement alone from APC lagos state shows that they are the enemies of their party in Nigeria, their failure to handle the matter led to their party losing Edo to PDP.
I urge the President and their well meaning party members to sanction Lagos state Chapter of the APC for fueling the crisis with the party.

4+4 Na D hammer code
Congratulations Governor Obaseki on your second term Victory.

As an APC leader not as a godfather but when Tinubu thought to make Obaseki like Ambode he showed him n Oshio that Edo is not Lagos and no to godfathers

yes Edo is not Lagos because ingrates like Obaseki and clowns like you who are easily swayed by propaganda will not allow the state move forward and get to the level Lagos State have already attained. this is a pitiable situation. people sitting down and shouting Edo is not Lagos, do you people even hear yourself talk. in what level in any shpere can you compare Edo to Lagos. it's high time you understand that your clownish slogan is highly primitive and vexatious to cosmomentis individuals who mean well for the development of Edo state.

No one has information of what Obaseki discussed with Tinubu

How can one man make a whole tribe wail uncontrollably?

Obaseki you too much...

Edo people will pass their verdict on Saturday. Obaseki will learn it is better to actually put development structures on ground than to spend billions on propaganda.
Tinubu did not prevent him from putting development in every community.
Tinubu did not advice him to prevent the full inauguration of the house.
If he was wise he would know Asiwaju gave that speech on behalf of the president.
Saturday will be a day of reckoning.

My major concern here is Oshomohnle if Obaseki win this coming election how will Oshomohnle survive it could this be his end politically?

Obaseki brought a gun to the continental ground to kill a member of the high table political career (Oshiomole), the elders and other members of the high table is currently not smiling at this. His first offence is attempting to kill at the continental ground and the second serious offence is attack on member of the high table with a dare effect on senior elder of the table (Tinubu) forgetting he is meant to serve diligently under the table. Obaseki is already declared as excommunicado and the bounty on him is to be activated on the election day. Edo state would be deconsecrated on Saturday as the high table would be sending all serving under the table to cease the state back from him. I only hope he can pull this through like John Wick.

He brought this upon himself, he will only be in need of enough of high Caliber guns from all possible arsenal to pull this war through. Can the underdog group (PDP) provide him with much needed lots of Guns ?

hajimosho:

By the time Obaseki realises the damage he has done to himself, it might be too late to backpedal.

It's already too late.
OBASEKI IS OFFICIALLY AN EX GOVERNOR OF EDO STATE.
