The Clown Governor- Now its Confraternity

I challenge critics of APC & The Labour party Edo State by asking whether PDP under Godwin Obaseki has really delivered what matters to Edo People.

The expensive misdirection of Edo State by a myopic emperor has truly gone full circle with yesterday’s announcement that he is initiating a blitz on confraternity in Edo State three months to his departure.

Edo State has been known for years to have a bad confraternity reputation across Nigeria due to youth confraternity issues in the state. The number of incidents have always been very high in Edo State. During 8 years of service this problem has never been priority to this government because it is common knowledge that Godwin Obaseki has used and continues to use confraternities to fight his political battles in Edo State. Coming out now with 3 months to go to say he wants to fight confraternity is another one of the lies this betrayer in chief is telling the Edo people.

8 years ago, and then again 4 years ago, they promised health centres, good schools, roads for farmers to access the city, electricity, new market, agro-millionaires, and security, which was the basic needs of the people, but they have truly failed on all fronts. They are leaving Edo State with over 90% of schools is very bad shape, bad roads, lack of health centres, no water in many areas, an increase in yahoo yahoo boys and hook-up girls and security challenges at its highest.

They have wasted billions on disastrous projects like fibreoptics cables, renovating buildings and malls for people to spend yahoo yahoo money and what they get from the diaspora. Godwin’s campaign is silent about his infrastructural projects because he knows they are all wasteful failures. What does not help is when a bucket load of your senior brothers who understand Edo better and ought to know better are dancing “Ajasco” with this clown of a governor. All GO’s pre-election promises have failed that even he is struggling to reconcile what they are. He is now guessing and calling it “Finishing Well”.

Confraternity in Edo State needs an approach that is far out of the reach of Godwin Obaseki. It is something that should have been priority 8 years ago and 4 years ago but not with just 2 months to go. Coming out yesterday with a statement to arrest unemployed youths serves no solution except to mask the Governor’s own failings to Edo youths. Please ask him what other options he has tried? He is inept!

Today, after 8 years, many Edos know the Edo State described by GO exist only in the Governor’s imagination. Reports on the ground are totally opposite and its terrible to keep lying to Edo people at this rate. Those 6 sienna buses procured this week are to pack your things out of Edo government house come September 2024.  

Let us continue awaiting manifestos from candidates to know who has the road map to fulfilling the basic needs for Edo people. We have had enough of this compulsive liar.
