In a recent BBC Pidgin interview, Ighodalo responded to Oshiomhole’s comments questioning his electability and familiarity with the people and the state

Host: The former governor of Edo state, someone weh you work for his economic team, to offer your expertise and your experience, Adams Oshiomhole.

E tok say, ” Asue Ighodalo is not electable , he doesn’t understand the people, he doesn’t know Edo state. He can’t speak the language of his own village. Wetin go be your response to that?”

Ighodalo: You know say , Comrade old me , so I get to respect him age, so I respect him age, not only just that, you know say Comrade marry person weh relate to me for village before, so because of that i get to respect that too.

But those things weh he talk, IM himself know say those things weh he talk no correct, no be better thing he talk so. Me , I leave am , make I respect im age.

But I leave m, you know say sometimes the man dey talk before he think.

Ok, make I ask you one question?

I advise am for eight years for his economic team. If all those things weh he talk , if I no Sabi do them, how I dey his economic team for eight years?

Host: Been on the economic team different from governing the people

Ighodalo: na wetin I dey tell you , which work he do before him become Governor,na tailor he take start , I no talk say because Im be tailor, im no fit become governor.

So his experience for life na tailor, but im do governor, and nobody tell am say e no dey electable , me weh don head boards, I don run companies ,weh don employ ten thousand people, how he go talk say…. so me I no wan issues with am.

Our experiences differ, me I be Board chairman, him be tailor but e con do states.. And he go talk say I no dey electable, no be people of Edo state go talk whether I dey electable or not. I dey with my people, I dey with my village people.

Im before he becomes governor, how many wards he go, me I don tour all the wards. This is my second or third time I dey tour all the ward…”

When people no get anything to take tell people say I go do dis thing, abeg vote for me, dem go dey take yab people.

Host: But you understand the language?

Ighodalo: Na language Dem dey take rule people? I understand enough, if we dey my village now dey talk, i go hear everything wey you dey talk, you no fit sell me, e no possible.

Ambrose Alli wey everybody dey shout say na good Governor, e no understand any language, Im name na Folorunsho, na for Yorubaland here e grow.

Ighodalo will surely win because Edo people always vote ugly men as their governor

To win a governorship election in Edo state you must be very ugly else nothing for you.

Anyone referring to Oshiomhole as a tailor is just DUMB because Oshiomhole worked as a senior staff of Arewa textiles in Kaduna.

Although Oshiomhole was not a tailor, there is absolutely nothing wrong in being a tailor

Ok between a board director and a tailor.
BTW, this boy should at least use the new word for tailors -fashion designer- for respectability since the tailor was talking of electability

And the same Oshomhole is ing a Monday that can't even spell Tuesday! What a joke.

Continue the Banter

What Asue Ighodalo said here is 100% truths, Oshimole even lacks manners in talking, imagine how could you insult a widow in Benin. Well play black will happen on September 25th. Dr Asue Ighodalo is the people’s choice.

AI for sure

Anyone referring to Oshiomhole as a Taylor is just DUMB because Oshiomhole worked as a senior staff of Nigeria textiles in Kaduna.

Also, there is absolutely nothing wrong in being a Taylor

You seem to be the one making it look like being a tailor is bad, no one will argue with you about oshomole working at a texile mill before becoming governor, what you should try to prove is that oshomole was never a tailor at any time before becoming governor, meanwhile if be a good governor is determined by certificates or what posts people occupied before being governors and presidents, nigeria would have being a better place

Simple question you Sabi the language you no fit answer

Lol. Oshobaba don turn Oshotailor

But it seems he was a good tailor given the quality of sowing I see on his khakis

Nigerian politicians are just playing around because the people are yet t9 wake up

Politics sha

I swear Osho no try

Of course Adams Oshiomole is a senseless garrulous talkative whose brain is often far away from him.

No be lie.
Hell. More annoying on seeing Oshiomhole whispering to the dumbo he wants to impose as next Edo governor. I don't think the guber candidate can write his name correctly.

If not for APC's election rigging trade mark, who in Edo State will vote for that Oshiomhole candidate?

Another idiotic nincompoop

Tailor wey apoint you? Oso go fire back, that man no dey tire for gbas gbos

But him no sew cloth for huspuppy...

Two mad pple!

No light, no food, no fuel, Nigerians suffering deeply, Yoruba elders tell Tinubu.

Politics a useless game that you should not kill yourself over defending the people who play with your head like table soccer. They'll still work with each other for another 8 years, you be there abusing and cursing, cyberbullying, and playing bigotry card, or threatening others unknown and known. Stop living like a fool.

Give it to the Comrade... Always getting his facts intact!
