Go against Edo and expect my wrath - Obaseki Warns Legislators by ThompsonJoo: 10:34am On Aug 07, 2020 |
*Failed Edo Assembly invasion an attempted coup d’état - Obaseki* *_...says govt will take all steps necessary to defend rule of law_* *_...salutes Edo people for thwarting evil plans_* Edo State Governor, Mr Godwin Obaseki, has described the failed invasion of the state House of Assembly Complex as an attempted coup d’état that is tantamount to treason and contrary to the provisions of the Nigerian Constitution. Obaseki who said this in a statewide broadcast on Friday, assured that his administration will take all steps necessary to defend the rule of law and democratic ideals. “Any person or group of persons who set out to test our will in this regard will meet with the full wrath of the law," the governor warned. He noted: "These events portend grave danger to the safety and security of our polity. It had all the hallmarks of an attempted coup d’état. “The people of Edo State rose as one to prevent the desecration of our democracy. It is however worrisome that certain persons are willing to plunge the society into avoidable anarchy and conflict just to satisfy their illegitimate objectives." According to the Governor, "the crisis in the Edo State legislature dates back to June 17th, 2019, when upon my proclamation of the 7th Edo State House of Assembly, some members-elect refused to present themselves for inauguration. “The Federal High Court sitting in Port Harcourt, Rivers State in a judgement delivered on the 12th of September, 2019, decided that my proclamation of the House of Assembly was lawful and that the National Assembly could not take over the function of the Edo State House of Assembly as the conditions for doing so did not exist. “The court judgement affirmed that the Assembly was duly inaugurated and held that the Governor or any other person could not issue another proclamation." He explained that "Even after this judgement, the 14 members-elect stayed away from the House and refused to be inaugurated to perform their elected role of representing their constituencies. Having failed to sit for over 180 sitting days, the leadership of the House of Assembly had no option but to declare their seats vacant and requested the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to conduct fresh elections to fill the vacancies that had then been created. "Following this action by the leadership of the House, the 14 members-elect approached the Federal High Court, Abuja, to challenge the constitutionality or otherwise of the declaration of their seats vacant. This suit is still pending in the court." Obaseki noted that "This unfortunate situation has festered because a former governor of the state is bent on throwing the state into crisis ahead of the forthcoming governorship elections." "I want to salute the resolve of all well-meaning Edo people in standing up to thwart the evil plans of these undemocratic elements who are bent on perpetrating an illegal assault on our democracy by the purported inauguration in a private residence. "These events portend grave danger to the safety and security of our polity. It had all the hallmarks of an attempted coup d’état. The people of Edo State rose as one to prevent the desecration of our democracy. It is however worrisome that certain persons are willing to plunge the society into avoidable anarchy and conflict just to satisfy their illegitimate objectives. "These acts are tantamount to treason, contrary to the provisions of the Nigerian Constitution. "Be assured, dear people of Edo State, that this government will take all steps necessary to defend the rule of law and democratic ideals. Any person or group of persons who set out to test our will in this regard will meet with the full wrath of the law," he said. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_f0Uh0PyaX0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_f0Uh0PyaX0 https://www.facebook.com/100003009364285/posts/2965752486868368/ 13 Likes 2 Shares

Wailing of a drown man You already played a bad political moves You should have atleast make your own loyalist dominate the house right from time. Or buy over atleast 8 of the 14 reps over. Then your balls would have been saved now. Now they want to destroy your career. Now you’re caught on two front . The house can impeach you for gross misconduct And you won’t even be on ballot , PDP won’t be able to field for the election. If your opponents decide to play with you their prey before killing you , they won’t impeach you, they would wait until you have been defeated. Then impeach you. This would make you lose out. A disgraced former governor . You will be incarcerated. Ambode is wiser than you Obaseki, A dog trying to fight a tiger is just making its death a sweet rancorous one. In the meantime you would be more concerned to not be impeached. Because being impeached destroy your history as a governor. There is nothing more painful than that. How can you be so poor. Who is your strategist sef? Go and kill Him. The man don scam you. Shuaibu has more to gain from your ordeal because he demonstrated one character everybody wants in life; LOYALTY 254 Likes 29 Shares |

Obaseki only your threat can not do anything on this .the best way is to head to court of law to challenge their legality !!els you are on your own OYO. You and oshimole uncultured to manage yourselves is giving Izeiyamu Orphan an opportunity to become what he was unable to get for the long period of time with pain. choosing which fight to engage is what make a man . fighting all fight makes you coward .both you and Osho will loss ,Is oshow Wins he only wins to avoid shame because to me Iyamun may not save his political future but you obaseki will always be on the loss loss side if you win their will not be peace for you in both PDP and APC.If you loss election Efcc office will be your next office to resume to . 24 Likes 2 Shares
