I agree to this statement "how can u conduct election during raining season and expect people with umbrella to lose"

Meanwhile....
Tinubu has declared Ize-iyamu winner of the election with 978,995 votes in Lagos

Edo nor be Lagos

To the people of Edo state I say a big congratulations to you, your voice has been indeed heard.

To INEC and the security operatives, I say kudos to you for a job well done, even though there is any plan to manipulate the result, PDP gave a very close marking just as how Ainsley Maitland Niles marked out Mohamed Sallah in the Community Shield. Sincerely speaking PDP was really ready for the election.

This should serve as a lesson to those in authority, APC would have saved themselves this shame if they have allowed Obaseki to contest. Oshiomhole will for sure sneak out of Iyanmo through Kogi cos Shame no go let am fit pass through Benin. Oshiomhole was completely on his own, party executive left him alone which tells you a lot.

This is a clear reflection of the feelings of the people from Edo state.
Tinubu nailed POI coffin with his press conference 3 days to the election. Indeed Edo has proved not to be Lagos.

To we the Youth,it’s better to try and fail than not to try at all, imagine if Obaseki has chickened out like the Frog in Lagos. When you are sure of yourself in politics you can achieve great things.

To POI , I salute your courage, you did well but unfortunately aligned yourself with the wrong person at the wrong time, you no calculate well at all.

The APC agent refused to sign the result sheet, of what reason is that? Election has been won by the most popular candidate who may not necessarily be the best.

I remove my hat for Philip Shuaibu, he is indeed a dependable deputy. Obaseki should not fk up with this guy at all. It was Oshiomhole that brought him to Obaseki, but in the heat of times he stood by him. That’s called loyalty. Na man you be.

To Obaseki and Shuaibu, it is time to hit the ground running, you have to repay the trust the people have put in you in sending Oshiomhole to political oblivion, he is still suspended by his ward so he is even party less at the moment.

Congratulations @ Gov Obaseki
Congratulations @ Able deputy Philip Shuaibu
Congratulations @PDP
Congratulations @ the people of Edo State
Congratulations Federal Republic of Nigeria.

EDO CAN NEVER BE LAGOS. IMPOSSICANT

Congrats to GGO on his re-election.

So many things to deduce from this election, one been the fact that Tinubu has been abandoned by the North in his pipe dream to be President.

Obaseki is a brave man, Ambode should make a return with PDP and Bury Tinubu finally just as his boy Oshio has been buried.

Congratulations @Obaseki.
Congratulations @Edo State.
Congratulations @PDP.
Congratulations @all positive vibes.

This is good news, full of joy and excitement...may it last long.

Again, @Obaseki be careful in welcoming those
that left to APC. Quite sure it's politics but it shows that they don't believe in your ideology...never use emotions to welcome them, think twice before you do.
Yes Edo may sound like Eko...
Yet Edo no be Eko.

Please may you never fail Edo people as you will need them someday.

Congrats to Edo people.
True true Edo is nor Lagos.

Congratulations

APC kept ranting online. Especially those from one region who are obliged to one man controlling them and determining their faith. They thought we in Edo can be dictated for like the way they are. Lol.

Check my profile and post. The results were the right analysis I gave far back July. Edo South and Central will be clear. Then APC will win in Edo North and the South and Central result margin will child that from the North.

They even boasted how they will cage Edo people and win by force. Forgetting Edo people aren't docile as they are. We fight for what we want and it must come to past. Same way we fought the almighty back then in Edo to produce Oshiomole, is the same way we drove him out.

I live in Edo State and have gone round the whole State. I know who is on ground but some people who doesnt stay here but want their Godfather to extend his territory to other land will stay in their zone and be spilling nonsense online.

I heard somebody wearing Khaki facing Owo road I don't know if it's Oshiomole.

Please you people should block everywhere around Benin....we die here

Congrats Obaseki & Shaibu, na brave men with iron balls una be...u both have given Ize Iyamu another carry over in this guber election course. Ize Iyamu never fit pass this exam since him begin register...he can now go and fulfil his calling as a motivational speaker/pastor. Verily verily I say unto you, Edo no be Lagos.

Edo No Be Lagos... APC NEVER AGAIN

All those last minute party jumpers... The boys are ready for deployment...

OshiomhOLE caught on camera, escaping from Iyamho earlier today.


Ize-Iyamu spotted also in Benin city



Tinubu spotted too

The final whistle.
Edo people have spoken.
Congratulations to Governor Godwin Obaseki.

Ya l saw it coming, Big congrats to him anyways,more wins

Damnnnnn niggarrr
Isoright

It was not just election

It was a revolution


Obaseki is a real niggarrr

Ambode is a pussy asss niggarrr with no balls

I rejoice with the good people of Edo State on this victory .

A big congratulations to his Excellency, the executive governor of Edo State , Godwin Obaseki.

God bless the peoples party

God bless the good people of Edo State for stamping the world most useless party, APC, out of Edo State .
I see many APC Edo state lawmakers decamping to PDP soon

Edo no be Lagos.

The most foolish man of the year award goes to Adams Oshiomhole.

By using kangaroo court to disqualify Obaseki from contesting APC primary, he literally delivered Edo state - an APC state - on a plater of gold to PDP.

Buhari was shocked when he learnt of this and that's why he personally removed Oshiomhole from his APC chairmanship position.

By disqualifying Obaseki from APC primary, Oshiomhole literally lifted a rock to smash his own feet.

Ordinary visa ban is too trivial to stop a desperate Nigerian politician from grabbing power & getting his hands in the public treasury.
Is the US the only country on earth?

God bless President Buhari for giving us the freest, fairest, most peaceful & transparent election since return to democracy.

Congratulations to Obaseki & the PDP.

Truly Edo is not Lagos.

Gbam. Though am not a politician but as a political animal, I wanted Obaseki to win because we all love the story of the underdog in any contest. At a point I was afraid they will crush him with federal might. But then, Buhari does not stick his neck for any one in politics especially now that he has got second term secured. But don't be deceived, Ondo state will go to APC because the circumstances are not the same.

Ondo is next

Confirm!

How will oshiomole survive this?

First he was disgraced out of office as the chairman of APC now this.

I hope this silences him forever.

My maximum respect to Edo people, they indeed proved a point with this.

Congratulations. All we are saying is let the right thing be done. Then we all will be happy in Nigeria. Obaseki, If you fail to deliver good governance to the people of Edo. The curse that will follow you and your younger generation will not be measurable

Ize Iyamu sorry ooooo...

Now I see a glimpse of hope in this country. If the people can vote not for the party but for the candidates of their choice, and their vote is being declare with honesty by the INEC, and the federal intervention or intimidation is not involved. Then we can start from there. I can boldly say God bless Nigeria.

Good!


The PDP candidate who was formerly in APC has defeated the APC candidate who was formerly in PDP making it the second time the winner (PDP) is defeating the loser (APC) although APC defeated PDP previously ... Nawa ooo


To the Edo pipu, epp me and ask what the difference between the PDP-APC candidate and the APC-PDP candidate?

Nigerians go wise laslas!

Pdp may be bad, but anything associated with apc is worse and devilish.. Congrats Oba and please do not betray the trust that edolites have given you.Shame on tinubu,shame on some Yoruba Muslims and shame on the hypocritical Apc supporters. Truely Edo no be Lagos.
