Temidayo Akinsuyi, Lagos

The candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Governor of Edo State, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has vowed to use the nation’s laws to tame aggressors called ‘lions and tigers’ sponsored to cause violence during the forthcoming election.

The governor said this during the Ward 10 campaign rally in Opoji, Esan Central Local Government Area of the state.

The warning followed intelligence report, urging him to suspend his campaign at the maternal home of a prominent politician in Opoji.
His comment comes weeks after candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Osagie Ize-Iyamu, in the election was seen addressing suspected hoodlums code-named ‘lions and tigers’ in a viral video.

While urging PDP members and supporters not to succumb to threats, Obaseki said, “We will tame the lions and tigers in Edo State with relevant laws of our country.”
He assured residents of the area that “adequate security would be provided on election day.”

The governor promised to construct the Opoji-Irrua Road and attract more development to the area if re-elected.

After the Edo election, Obaseki will be permanently put to exile

This guy go shame when he loses. Him own boasting and talks come dey too much

They are already tamed. Reason Oshomole is running around like headless fowl seeking presidential help to arrest PDP men.

On another note, Obaseki should ensure links between Edo and Ondo (roads and waterways) are effectively policed from Sept 15th. Same should apply to Kogi end, especially Okene and Agenebode routes. Boat crossing between Agenebode and Idah needs serious policing.

Edo no bi Lagos.

Unfortunately Obaseki did not have the power to do all that you advise him to.

Talkative mumu will be boasting to media while his opposition re quietly preparing for his political burial.
You once boasted nobody can chase you from APC or stop you from getting the ticket at the end you were chased out with your footsoilders

He should first tame his thugs who were shooting at each other in Igueben. Even Okowa had to be ferried to safety.

I wonder why that PDP prophet ayodele or whatever has not prophesied victory for Obaseki? Wetin happen?

Recycled information.
It is not everything you hear you should propagate.
It makes one look as foolish as the initiators, when such information is unverifiable (through reliable sources).

You will hardly hear this man listing his achievements
