The Flamingos just made history as the first African team to win the FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup. The entire nation is celebrating one of the purest unifying moments we’ve had in years.
You saw them at the airport, weren’t allowed to approach for the photo, and immediately turned their achievement into a long essay about your personal victimhood and “toxic politics.”
Your ego got bruised, so the unity had to be sacrificed. Leave the girls out of your pity party. They made Nigeria proud, Sir they don’t owe you a photo op.
Omosede Igbinedion is being supported today because, as the member representing Ovia Federal Constituency, she moved a Motion of Urgent Public Importance in the House of Representatives opposing the proposed creation of Toru-Ebe State that would carve out ancestral Benin communities such as Ughoton, Siluko, Udo, Ekewan and Obazuwa from Edo State.
She stood her ground and argued fiercely to defend Edo’s territorial integrity and the historical heritage of the Benin Kingdom, and that alone earned my support as an Edo Conservative.
Not everything is about constituency projects, the primary duty of a legislator is to make laws, sponsor important bills, raise motions, and defend the interests of their constituency.
The people who worked with the past Edo State government, which supported the Ijaws through their principal that bought gunboats and flying boats for them, are now in the NDC. We have seen videos of them threatening us with war, and you expect us to embrace such a party? 😂
@blossomken32 Them tell you say you go fly comot for earth? You self go die. No human is walking out of earth my dear we all gonna die so talk another thing jor
REJECT ALL NDC CANDIDATES IN EDO STATE BECAUSE THEY ARE SELLOUTS.
I recently watched a video of Honourable Charity Aiguobarueghian, the NDC candidate for Ovia Federal Constituency. In the video, he attempted to sound politically correct while making a statement that insulted the sensibilities of Edo people.
I do not wish to dwell on this for long because the video already disgusts me. However, I must correct him.
The great Oba Orhogbua, who led military expeditions to Lagos and other coastal areas, was a sailor.
It is therefore deeply insulting and demeaning for a man aspiring to represent Ovia Federal Constituency to claim that he does not know of any prominent Benin family that produced seafarers.
This is a slap in the face of every Benin person, both at home and abroad.
Come 2027, the Benin ethnic nationality will speak with one voice.
We will resist political interference in our local affairs by people who settle on our land and seek to claim our ancestral territories by using some of our own as useful idiots to gain power through the back door.
This is painful to write because I once admired Honourable Charity Aiguobarueghian from a distance.
I never expected the day would come when I would have to call him out like this.
My pen bleeds. 🖊️
Woman go inherit Igiogbe? Una sabi talk anyhow sha. If a man dies the house automatically becomes that of the first Son. Our women build houses on their own and still it belongs to the first Son if she dies.
Fun Fact:
There are more Landladies in Edo State than there are Landlords in any other state in Nigeria.
6/10 houses in Benin City are owned by landladies.
On average, Edo women acquire houses through the death of their husbands than through buying or building.
