“Imagine the irony of our democra
cy, it is those who are less than two weeks old that are pushing my ward executives to suspend me. Isn’t that funny that those who just joined the party through the backdoor with plenty dollar rains, are those pushing for my suspension. I am so proud of an average Okpella person, the spirit of camaraderie and solidarity is profound this time. We cannot be fooled. We need roads, and other infrastructure”.
“Ize-Iyamu has told me the first six months in office, he will give immediate attention to our roads and schools. I believe him because he knows the workings of government. Since Governor Obaseki has failed, let us try another hand who will give us attention”.
“Suspension or no suspension, my position remains intact, that Okpella people will reject Obaseki at the polls. Any Okpella person still campaigning for Obaseki in the face of this neglect and abandonment should have himself properly examined”.

“In Okpella where I come from, a Secondary School has been closed down because of lack of teachers. In most secondary schools in Edo, school teachers are in short supply, 4, 3, 5 teachers in an entire school. Just look at Edo flooding after rainfall. The drains in Benin City were due for desilting since March 2017, but the Governor is busy fighting political wars and abandoning governance. Benin is flooded every time there is rain. Look at the Ogbe stadium that he renovated”.
“A colossal N6 billion was used for that purpose. Half of that can build you a brand new stadium. So this is our predicament. We need to rally round Pastor Ize-Iyamu to restore political calm and peace. Let us bid Obaseki bye bye for now. We are tired of his combative style. Let’s try another hand in Ize-Iyamu and see what he will offer” he said.
