I thought they ran with Oshomole to Abuja and refused to be inaugurated because they could not elect oshomole's puppet speaker aswell as seeing they could not garner 2/3rd for impeachment... You left the people you are supposed to represent, but rather galavanting round Abuja following a Godfather, now your Godfather has been discarded and you are scrambling like headless chickens.. Edolites are wiser. 61 Likes 8 Shares |

It seems like this can’t be achieved! There are strong internal forces within APC backing Obaseki up on his moves 38 Likes 4 Shares |

Apart from assulting peaceful protesters and taking N50 from motorists, this is another kind of hatchet job you'll find the Nigerian police extraordinarily competent in handling. Obaseki and his deputy cannot be outplayed in dirty politics, they know how to reply...just watch out. 44 Likes 7 Shares |

To be honest and candid, Buhari's presidency is lenient with the state governors most especially the opposition party. This is rare during the administration of Obasanjo and Jonathan. How can elected legislators of the ruling party be prevented from being sworn in by the Governor for more than a year because of the paranoia of impeachment which the governor has no evidence to prove. Let's call a spade a spade, Obaseki took his luck too far by this act. 85 Likes 13 Shares |

hajimosho: Gets your facts right.. nobody prevented them from being sworn in.. they ran to Abuja with Oshomole when they could not beat Obaseki to electing their puppet speaker alongside not being able to get the 2/3rd to impeach the speaker. The best they could have done was to get inaugurated, represent their people while planning their next step right.. but they chose to abandon the people whom were the reason for the election in the first place.. 27 Likes 5 Shares |

Kriss216: Let's be factual and reasonable. There is nothing Ambode could have done with the 40 house of assembly members and the state Judiciary against him. He contested the party's primary which he lost, accepted fate and acted like a progressive by staying back in his ideology rather than cross-carpeting which is a sign of desperation. Politics requires a lot of accurate discernment, not just wishful thinking. 28 Likes 1 Share |

Esseite: You are the one that needs to master the political strategy in navigating a divided opinion. When Saraki and Dogara got their coveted seat in defiance to the majority voices of the ruling party. They shifted grounds by accommodating the party's preferred candidates as the Majority leader at both chambers. Obaseki should have reached out to these majority legislators, and make peace for the development of Edo. No Independent nation of the world will take your excuse. It is not tenable. Stop believing cooked lies. 29 Likes 3 Shares |

hajimosho:They didn't even allow Obaseki to contest, but, he's now the flag bearer of the biggest party in Nigeria. Not just that, Obaseki also relegated Oshiomhole and Tinubu in APC thereby making them IDPs. All these happened cos Obaseki is not a coward! Shame on Ambode, once again! 24 Likes 6 Shares |
