@Kingfex12: You betrayed your brother for Obaseki. Now it’s your turn to take from the bitter pills you and Obaseki gave Oshiomole. My people do not get involved in politicians war, do not die in their war. They will always be friends later when their interests aligns.
@Tommycharzy43: There is no rule of law in Nigeria, those who possess a higher hegemony make decisions without looking backward.
Was it legal when your government with the same Obaseki fought dirty with Oshiomole?
@Osaze_07: Why r you desperate to remain in a govt that doesn’t want you? When you and Obaseki ran the state with less than one 5th of the elected assembly, was that a legitimate means of suppressing opposition? You betrayed your Oga for new friends, see now.. Why we? Na only u stand o 🙄
@Austine_AAA: This is what you politicians, you guys always forget tomorrow. When you join Detector Obaseki to fight OshoBaba, now reverse is the case. Let’s always put Edo State 1st
