Edo State AKA State of Godwins

CluelessMODS:
All Edo governors and deputy always looking like thugs and ugly, the one wey manage fine small dem don remove am.

South south guys can fine, but for some reason their politicians will just be looking like burnt Akara. Maybe their moral shortcomings are showing in their faces.

No sympathy for Shaibu looking at the way he messed up his political benefactor Oshiomhole. I knew he would not end well.

However I think another etsako man would have made more political sense or Kabiru Adjoto if he must go akoko edo.

Omobayo was the LP house of representatives candidate in akoko edo last year, he couldn't pull any influence in his own election.

The song lyrics of 'mastermind' frm Nas comes to mind:


A Mastermind
Sees it coming before it comes
A Mastermind
Before he go to war he counts his one
A Mastermind
Everything planned out perfect
In case y'all niggaz got to get murdered
A Mastermind
Sleeps at night, real easy
A Mastermind
'Cause everything he does is by the book
A Mastermind
Never do a thing irrational
Lives forever, these tales are classical
Velvet bow ties, bulletproofs in the tux, when I roll by
In the car similar to a saunas, in my diamonds
And my principal is to study drama
Look what happened in Manhattan
A couple of years ago, when guns started clappin'
Two of my dogs fell, two of my niggaz ran
They was armatures in beef with a grown man
It taught me the lessons of how the strong stand
And how the weak, end up in a coffin
Play cool, that's the old school rule, man
Keep your ears to the street, y'all never lose man
Make your enemies believe there's love there
'Cause in war, belief is all fair
Rock them to sleep, shots in your jeep
And you ain't never know the plot was from me
It's from my Masterminds

Edo to the world

Slytiger:

The guy (Bola) basically kicked Olumide Akpata to the curb.

He has now become PDP by ing the structure of criminality as low budget Obidients call it.

He would deliver the whole of Akoko Edo to PDP in the election.

So there are High Budget OBidients?😏🤨

Many of una need SENSE wahalli. 😌😌

VinnyBaba:

Yes now. They are called key Obidients.

These key Obidients are the ones that control the low budget minions with remote control.

High budgets: Arab Ibrahim, Aishat Yesufu, Emir Sirdam, Nerfetiti, AkinOloye e.t.c.

Low budget: vinnybaba, Lagos1stson, penguin2 e.t.c

LegendHero:


I agree.

When I first went to Igarra, all their old people speak Yoruba fluently.

There's a sacrosanct and confirmed history of Edo. Logically, they are likely part of aboriginal Yorubas who moved further east.
However history confirms that they themselves trace their earliest history to when Oranmiyan, a Yoruba handsome boy from Ife went to their land.
But they want to be twisting the story that Oranmiyan's dad was their son and there's no trace.

But I don't get why Obaseki would pick a labour guy as his deputy - particularly a relatively unknown figure.

If he wanted to pull the rug from Akpata, (who by the way I hear is not really that popular) he should have chosen a more formidable candidate.

The oba said he was onranmiyans descendant at his coronation. I don't know where people always get the other funny stories from. May be an ego issue.

The guy is well known in Akoko Edo. Obaseki is very much aware of that. It's a political move. He did it to erase Olumide from the Akoko area of Edo which I hear has a big population.

Lolss, ok na.

No Problem.

There are some Yorubas from Edo state.
However, Akoko Edo people are NOT Yorubas.
@LegendHero, goodlady

If fubara go get this liver as obaseki get,river lawmakers for dem put there self to other, this are guys with balls, talk it and do it,no giv anybody breathing space

LegendHero:
Yoruba Lokan.

Edo no be Lagos don be Lagos by fire by force.

By the way, no one is screaming democlacy is in danger. If na Sanwoolu impeach him deputy like this, they go don dey cry to UN and CNN.

Nigeria is a nation of hypocrites, that’s why nothing gets done correctly.

What was wrong with the impeachment if I may ask

Hypocrites like you saw how Yahaya Bello impeached Achuba and never screamed

But because it is coming from Obaseki who gave your masters a bloody nose, it must be wrong

Who is the hypocrite now?

Tomorrow, we will read that it is Adams behind their predicament again.

The level of hypocrisy is simply astonishing. Just imagine that the so-called fake leaders who normally cry out on issues like these are just silent. This is simply because it does not involve Tinubu or APC.
Wait till it's Fubara's turn for impeachment, you will see the level of noise that will be made by the same people who see no wrong in this Godfatherism move. It only goes to show that they are not interested in good governance but self-interests.
Simply pathetic.

DMerciful:
When someone falls, you guys will start coming up with pedestrian analysis.

Why didnt Bubu impeach Osibanjo for contesting primaries against his wish?

What is wrong with a deputy governor wanting to be givernor esp when the gov has done two ?

It's beyond that, my guy.
For equity, power should go to Edo central i.e the Esans.
Shaibu is from Edo North(same constituency with Oshiomhole), so shaibu knew all the odds against him yet he choose to contest because of his personal cum selfish ambition.
It's Edo central turn
Esan lokun

How is contesting a ground for impeachment? Every citizen has the right of franchise, to vote and be voted for

I doubt if this will be the end of this game. A game of former partners in betrayal now betraying each other.
The supposed bigger hand has taken the first shot now.
Will this be the only shot? Will the supposed weaker hand able to pull anything? Can the supposed weaker hand pull a big stunt? Time will tell as we relax to watch this game.
2024 seems to be interesting in Edo politics

My discussion is not about the impeachment rather it's about the deeds of shaibu that made him lose ers and political influence in Edo state.

What are you trying to demonstrate even oduduwa is from edo . yoruba come from benin kingdom through oduduwa a benin prince.

Akoko-Edo is the third most populous local government in Edo state only less populated than local governments in Benin metropolis. Yes everyone likes Omobayo in Akoko-Edo, APC rigged him out via Oshiomole

Deputy gov position is one empty and not that important position,any day he feels like taking his own decision his boss will tag him betrayal stubborn,he wants to bite hand that fed him

But according to a lot of uninformed people, there are none Igbo speaking tribes outside of south east?

According to the articles of impeachment, he was accused of leaking state secrets and there's a video of the accusation to booth

A very big ego sir. They are on Facebook creating different jargons blogs. Most of them are cultists bringing different illiterate topics and threatening those with contrary opinion especially those with facts. You go see United Kingdom of Benin, United Kingdom, Humans of Edo etc. They are on Facebook. They claimed Igbos sef!

Fiscus105:



Even you urself miscalculated, going by ur own analysis.


By this time of next four years, both Obaseki and Shaibu would not be relevant in Edo politics , not to talk of 8 years. (Sitting gov would ensure nobody except him is relevant in politics) Immediately you slip out of power, almost impossible to be relevant, not even deputy that has little or no power wen he is in govt.


Tinubu case is rare and it happens once in 100 cases!( You can see how Wike wants to replicate it in Rivers. I also biliv you are seeing the attendance effects)

Don't mind him. He's most likely yoruba. Most of the people commenting and been happy are yoruba people who were not happy with the way Shaibu fought tinubu boy(oshiomole). So they are happy to see shaibu disgraced. Check most of them, they are not based in Edo.
Yes, Obaski will also become irrelevant.

They are Yorubas cut by mao inside Edo State.
