My people in Egor/Ikpoba Okha Federal Constituency are unanimously saying---> It is Ogbeide Ifaluyi-isibor or nothing..

What do you think?

[ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor @exquisiteOG]

If you conduct an opinion poll, the majority of youths in my Constituency will tell you that they need empowerment.

That's actually what most young people require and desire. They want to be self sustaining.

For too long, we have waited for jobs to come from government offices, banks and oil companies but today's jobs are created on laptops and phones, using digital platforms that connect talent to opportunity.

When I get elected, my greatest focus will be--->

One Laptop + internet = Access to global income.

Technology does not create jobs by magic, it creates jobs when leadership makes the right choice.

This I have done privately and will have the ability to scale when given increased capacity as your representative.

While i was Commissioner for Digital Economy, Science and Technology, we leveraged on platforms like Upwork and Fiverr to help create jobs in Graphic design, writing, software development, virtual assistance etc and we had young folks earning in dollars. With increased digital training and equipping our youths with the right tools, we will churn out youths that are financially stable and economically stalwart.

Today, online vendors, digital marketers, product photographers, video editors, social media managers, influencers, content creators are being sought after and many of our youths are left out because they haven't had the opportunity to add the required value on themselves and that's where I will step in.

I will support the growth of startups and the creation of mini tech hubs in Egor and Ikpoba Okha LGAs.

I don't think our young people are lazy, I think they are searching for opportunities and we will help bridge that gap.

Support Ogbeide Ifaluyi-isibor for House of Representatives, Egor/Ikpoba Okha Federal Constituency 2027.

@EOlutimehin There will be no direct primaries sir. No political party can afford it.

[ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor @exquisiteOG]

I watched the interview yesterday on YouTube and listened closely to all H.E Atiku Abubakar said and I had a few take aways from the conversation.

Quite honestly, I wasn't shocked at most of his comments and I frankly understood his arguments.
Somewhere in my head before this interview, I had thought that these guys were gonna spring a good surprise that will impress many young Nigerians especially when H.E Rabiu Kwankwanso joined the ADC, it was looking more like a possibility for an Obi/Kwankwanso ticket but the interview yesterday drowned the expected surprise in my head. I mean, something beautiful may still happen to wow us but the chances appear alot slimmer.

If Alhaji Atiku gets into a contest for the ticket, the chances are quite high that he'll get it either by a consensus or my direct voting. The man will be 80years in 2027 and this is his last chance at the Presidency. He is convinced that the principle of power rotation is a great idea but considering the present situation, the North falls short and they are hoping to reduce the gap in 2027.
As unfair as that may be to the principle of zoning, that is fair to the principle of fairness and balance.
According to him, the South has done 18 years and the North has done 10 years and if I were a Northerner, that's enough to get my emotions riled up as that will be adjudged as unfair balancing, but even without being a Northerner, it still appears skewed, however, I can also submit myself to the unwritten principle of zoning/power rotation and can say that, it wasn't a deliberate process but a circumstantial one that has created this imbalance, President Yar'a dua passed and he had to be replaced according to the Constitution and that's where the tilting was birthed.

Well! Back to the interview, chances are that if Atiku gets the ticket for Presidency, he'll be wise to suggest that H.E Peter Obi joins him on that ticket for maximum impact.

Most people down south like me want H.E Peter Obi to be President and we know that that's the only reason why folks are giving the ADC any attention, not because of any other individual but PO, but if the democratic permutations as per the primaries props up Alh Atiku, will PO be able to rally his base to believe in the joint ticket as a clear pathway to a future Peter Obi Presidency post 2027?

Fmr Governor Peter Obi has said several times that he will be on the ballot in 2027 and that has kept his base hopeful, will he join another platform to make that happen if the odds in the ADC suggest that Atiku will get the Presidential ticket(as it clearly does) or will he submit himself to the decision of his party and energize his base to give Atiku their trust as he runs on a joint ticket with him. Will his base find the argument worthy and give the North the needed fillip to get Tinubu out? If not, what options do they have.

If PO doesn't run for President, will his base rather reinforce failure by staying away from the process and giving Tinubu a clear win down South or will getting Tinubu out by all means remain the focus for most of us whether Obi gets the ticket or not.

These are thoughts that arose in my head since I watched the interview.

Overall, the bottom line is--> Support Ogbeide Ifaluyi-isibor for House of Representatives, Egor/Ikpoba Okha Federal Constituency 2027.

[ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor @exquisiteOG]

I am not running for House of Representatives so I could build bridges where there are no rivers, I am not promising to create 1 million jobs within my first 100 days or build factory all across Egor and Ikpoba Okha. A legislator has no such capacity and I am not interested in making bogus promises.

I am running for office because my people in Egor and Ikpoba Okha Federal Constituency deserve a voice that understands their silent sacrifices, and their unspoken hopes.

I will be carrying the stories of my constituency into rooms where decisions are made, that solutions may come.

My leadership will be measured not by promises made, but by lives improved and hopes reborn.

I am not stepping forward because it is easy. I am stepping forward because it is necessary.

Egor/Ikpoba Okha can't continue with the manner of representation they have now.

Support Ogbeide Ifaluyi-isibor for House of Representatives, Egor/Ikpoba Okha Federal Constituency.

Shout out to the one who destroyed an "Edo owned" 550MW Ossiomo generating plant that was servicing businesses and homes. He is now laying the foundation for a "Chinese owned" 100MW Ologbo generating plant that will take another 2 years to function.

INEC must include psychiatric evaluation for those who aspire to Govern.

I didn't keep my promise to provide better electricity, in fact it's even worse now than ever. Ordinarily, the people shouldn't vote for me but my people are zombies with no sense, alot of them will defend me at all cost even when a promise made was not kept. I can be President for 20 years and the city servants will fight for me.

A letter from President Tinubu to you..

[ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor @exquisiteOG]

Attention Rufai Oseni and Dr Reuben Abati.

I watched with utmost dismay an assertion made on your TV show this morning when you both strangely attributed the selection of Sen Monday Okpebholo as the choice of Edo people and asking them to live with their choice.

On behalf of the majority of Edo voters, the majority of votes cast were against the election of Monday Okpebholo, Edo voters majorly had no hand in the process that led to his emergence. It is widely agreed that the selection of Sen Monday Okpebholo as Governor of Edo State was the handiwork of President Tinubu and not a direct reflection of the votes of the Edo people. This is what's most surely believed amongst us.

Edo people are exposed, educated, intelligent and highly composmentis and will not have chosen Monday over Asue even with a sword to our chests.

However, INEC, the Police and the Presidency had their choice prevail over the will of the people and we will have to deal with it and the consequences unfortunately.

We hold the office of the Governor of Edo State in very high esteem and we respect the person of Sen Monday Okpebholo but please, lets fix culpability where culpability should be when shaming the Edo people for the incompetence of Sen Monday Okpebholo.

Have a great day!

[ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor @exquisiteOG]

The Governor of Edo State is very humble but only to gentlemen who can rig elections..

[ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor @exquisiteOG]

Agbo Miyake said that---> The Kingdom of Darkness currently has more light than Edo State. He was right! But it wasn't always the case, we saw competence before.

Peace has been restored in Ekpoma as the Tinubu Billboard that was destroyed (that angered the Governor) has been replaced and Tinubu's face made bigger to pepper the kidnappers.

Ekpoma is now shining.

Shame on Putin and his Russian allies.

[ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor @exquisiteOG]

#FreeEkpoma52

Arresting students for a protest against the continued kidnapping and ki..lling of Ekpoma residents is tyranny in plain sight.
A Government that handcuffs young people for speaking out has forfeited all moral authority to govern.
Peaceful dissent is a right, not a privilege granted at the convenience of those in power.

The continued detention of the 52 AAU students is shameful, illegal, and cowardly.

Release them immediately and stop ruling through fear and intimidation.

You were du..mb to their cries for weeks, you can't detain them now for protesting to save their own lives when you have failed to protect them.

[EA has her PVC @virtuousii]

Kidnapping students in Ekpoma, demanding 100m for ransom and killing them off because they can’t raise the money but the police would rather go and arrest students for protesting.
I can’t believe this country!

[ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor @exquisiteOG]

We did it before in Edo, it wasn't rocket science.

Lets stop embarrassing ourselves and get the Edo State Command and Control Center back on track.

Build one in Uromi and build one in Auchi.

[ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor @exquisiteOG]

An incompetent governor counts goats attacked in Ekpoma while graves multiply across Esan land, proving he was never fit to count lives in the first place.

When insecurity stalks the streets and the Governor chooses silence, that silence becomes a policy—one that licenses fear, abandons the people, and proves that the office is occupied, but leadership is vacant.

[ogbeide Ifaluyi-Isibor @exquisiteOG]

Esan land is under siege, Ekpoma has become the sambisa Forest of Edo State. Farm lands have since been deserted, bandits take strolls into the towns, take people from their backyards and stroll back into their kidnapping den.

AAU students have refused to resume school as they fear for their lives, there was a protest some days ago, the people are crying out so loud but not loud enough for their son to hear in Benin.
Interestingly, most of my Esan friends on social media are more interested in the Ramat Park Flyover in Benin than calling out their son to come heed to the worries of his kinsmen. What bamboozles me the most is the complete and audible silence and the "I don't care attitude" of the Governor. For him, Udomi is relatively safe so he is fine.

Just before Christmas, an elderly couple was kidnapped right in their home, the poor old lady was dehumanized right in the presence of her husband in the bush and her remains deposited at an abattoir in Iruekpen. No words from the state government.

A few days later, they struck again and a young dude was kidnapped and eventually taken out in his prime because family members couldn't raise N200million for his release. Not a word from the Governor.

Few days ago, the head of the vigilante in Okhuesan was kidnapped, and the tragedy keeps piling up daily in Ekpoma and other parts of Esan but my friends are not bold enough to tell Mr Governor that all is not well in Esan land, they are busy measuring the width and length of the Ramat Park Flyover. When will sense prevail?
You want to protect your brother who doesn't need protection but the people who need protection are dying but you keep quiet.

Who will bell "your" cat!
