PDP will take over Edo state this year. Mark my words.

Even if obaseki should go to PDP, he will loose the election to Iyamu and that’s exactly what will happen.

What exactly are you doing in Nigeria, if you can give all this countries visa then take the lead we gonna follow, Akpako Agent everywhere

CharleyBright:
Oshimole thinks he is the only mad man in town?
Let Obaseki deal with him and humble him.
Useless fool

Obaseki dealing with Oshiomole? Lol

Obaseki dealing with Oshiomole? Lol

Apc chairmen in Edo or where?

Zico5:
This Obaseki will surely burn the house on his head. Power is transient and I still think some of these leaders are just dumb. He knows he can't win the battle even if Oshiomole is guilty, u need to know how to fight and withdraw. Four years will soon end and he will know where he stands. I pray his case will not be like Ambode that's living in regret of his actions now. In game of life, u fight and run in order to fight again.

It's better Obaseki fight and lose than be Ambode.
Did Ambode you are trying to draw analogy with Obaseki, put up any struggle let alone fought his political traducers @a.k.a.Mr.BAT

Pay 10 million naira to seun account let's bet... Obaseki will fail like a chicken trying to touch the moon

Khaleell001:


You don't even understand politics.

Okay now tell us Obasaki's political capacity and of his menders like oyegun.When the are down people will begin desert Obasaki's in their droves

Peace can not be unto you unless you start listing names of corrupt Igbo governors instead of dot.

smailon:


The insult is uncalled for man.
By the way I am not igbo and I just listed a few "Nigerian politicians".
If you were observant enough, you would notice I used three dots after the name Oshiomole to indicate there are lots of them.

Peace be still.

Honestly the man is making noise while his opponents are planning on how best to deconstruct him...obaseki can't sleep again

The man de behave like pikin

kandral:
Divided they will fall. If this continues and obaseki represents Apc in the coming election, Oshiobaba will wash his hands off it and PDP will return.

Party politickings in Nigeria generally is humorous.

DonFreshmoney:
APC chairmen are confused lots... one minute they are supporting obaseki, another minute they are backing oshiomole... useless fellas

...."whose report do you believe"

Khaleell001:


This guy must be a joke.
Who was Philip Sharibu and Obaseki in Edo state politics then?
Who were they?
They were unknown entities.
Even Philip Shauibu you called Oshiomole's foot soldier was just an appendage or at best a political stooge with no known political relevance in Edo north(where I am from).
Oshiomole had an antecdenet as a labour president at that time and trying to make it sound as if Anthony Aninieh has anything to do with is coming to power is trying to be clever by half.

You guys should stop using Nairaland as a pedestal for concocting lies.

I am not supporting anyone in particular in all these, but I think Obaseki is just crying foul when there is none and has truly bitten more than he can chew.
Just watch it, as they say in our local parlance :the future is pregnant.

I perceive that you did not really understand
what I was talking about.

For the avoidance of doubt I was talking not about the political backgrounds of any of them or their relevance for that matter.

Clearly I was talking about Oshiomole and his fight to end godfatherism in Edo state. I was talking about Oshiomole opening their eyes to the challenges of godfatherism and equipping them to fight.

Did I talk about Anenih having anything to do with Oshiomole becoming the governor of Edo state?

Where you not in Edo state when Oshiomole fought a bitter war against Tony Anenih? Where were you when Oshiomole said that he had effectively put an end to godfatherism seeing that he had taken control of Edo politics? Did you not hear Obaseki saying that the names of top government officials were written by Oshiomole and handed over to him? Did you not hear Obaseki say that his problem with Oshiomole centers on his greed as a godfather? Even today Obaseki said that he was out to end godfatherism in Edo state. Oshiomole taught them those things. Last month in december Oshiomole responding to an allegation by Shuaibu said that he did not teach them hold to lose elections. He said that Shuaibu was defeated even in his own polling center. He used the word "teach". That means truly that he taught them several lessons in politics and power play.

Where are the lies there please bro? Why not let your response remain within the points that I raised?

Now I will respond to your comment about Philip Shuaibu this way. How many politicians in this country were born with silver spoons? Someone gives them the chance to become relevant. Oshiomole did that. If Oshiomole has become overbearing can't they break away from him?

The problem sometimes is that we do not know when to say enough of the yoke. Kwara people started the "o to ge" and the godfather there was removed. Oshiomole said no more to godfatherism by himself and now his godsons are saying no more to him. That is what I am talking about and surely not taking sides with either party.

Wrong analogy. Those who championed "O to ge" in Kwara State - including Lai Mohammed and Gbemisola Saraki - were never 'Bukola Saraki's godsons or daughters, just like Oshiomhole was never Igbinedion/Tony Annenih's godson. Saraki was simply some bad market through and through. Oshiomhole has never been a bad market or lost significantly anywhere, IMHO.

Your points are nothing less than pandering to popular thoughts with no substance.

Looking back at antecedentsm; it is clear Obaseki and Shaibu had no political wherewithal to get to the positions they occupy today.
It was Oshiomole who made them who they are today politically speaking.
Whether anyone agrees or not(I am repeating this point for emphasis sake)

Now let's talk about godfatherism.

It is a known fact that Obaseki suspended or should I say sack two ELECTED NOT APPOINTED OH.
Mark the word ELECTED local government chairmen because according to him: there were financial misapporiation by one of them and as for the other I can not tell what reason he(Obaseki) suspended or sacked an elected official for.

Imagine for a moment, if Buhari were to do something similar by sacking a governor simply because of one reason or the other, and I have no doubt in mind that you would or have been among those who have been condemning and still condemning him for being a tyrant,and you will raise more hell if he(Buhari) dared to differ what Obaseki did,but no, since he is Obaseki, he is fighting "godfatherism."

Another one of this no-godfather governor is "fighting " is his refusal to allows ELECTED NOT APPOINTED members of Edo state house of assembly to resume duty,instead he went and forced and also threaten 9 out of 24 members of the house of assembly in middle of the night or at night to legislate over the affairs of Edo state by issuing a phony proclamation simply because he was fighting godfatherism.
You did not see these ones and many more he would do(since he has being suspended people from his position as the governor).
And he is sin as fighting godfatherism?
SMH.

If Obaskei had any good intentions he would have accepted one of the reconcilation committee or panel set up to reconcile him and his former benefactor from this political impasse but no, he keeps on rejecting them like someone who is praying shooting.

See, let's not even go far, I know Oshiomole can be overbearing at times, but I won't fall for everything Obaseki and cohorts are vomiting just to make Oshiomole appear like the devil.
I won't because I am. objective and straight forward in my thinking

And it is still on record that no governor has done more work in Benin city and improved on our infrastructures especially roads in Edo state like Oshiomole.
No governor!
If you have one mention his name.
I know you might mention Ogbemudia and Ambrose Alli, but we are talking about in recent years.

To me, I like Obaseki's personality but he is doing things I never expected of him.
What I want him to do is he should try to reconcile with Oshiomole and let bygones be bygones and let Edo state move forward,but if anyone thinks he can bite the fingers that fed him, let him and those who support him be ready for a fight to finish.

Because the Oshimohole I know is seriously and busy strategizimg and I fear this might be the end for Obaseki's political sojourn and most especially Philip Shuaibu.
Just watch the space.

You are talking about the issues confronting the contending parties i.e. Oshiomole and Obaseki. I'm not talking about those.

See the point that I am driving at is that Oshiomole taught them all that they know politically today (according to him), just like he rightly informed us recently. He brought trade unionism into politics and showed them how to stand up against state powers. I am simply saying that the tools/weapons that he gave them are being used against him.

Do not forget that Obaseki and Shuaibu will not be sitting idly and waiting to be defeated. They have their own strategies too.

Cheers.

My oga before you finally go.
In all honesty, you missed the point Oshiomole was contextualising when he made that statement about teaching them, and he taught them NOT to lose election: and Oshiomole even went further to explain what he meant by teaching them them when he made references to how he delivered Edo north senatorial district (his catchment area)to APC and how he won his own area unit unlike Shauibu and Obaseki who lost their catchment area.
And we know even the so called "all powerful " siting governor could not deliver his own senatorial district in his first assignment to his party and you expect APC to trust him?
Even you wouldn't do that.
As they say,politics is local.

The piont is,Obaseki is biting more than what he can chew and I assure you if Oshiomole gets the backing of the government in power which I am almost sure he would,except something drastic happens then Obaseki's and Phillip's days are numbered in Edo state government house.
