SERGIUS OGUN FELICITATES WITH OBASEKI ON APPEAL COURT VICTORY


The honourable member representing Esan North-East/Esan South-East Federal Constituency in the House of Representatives, Rt Hon. ( Barr.) Deacon Sergius Oseasochie Ogun has congratulated the executive governor of Edo state, His Excellency, Mr Godwin Obaseki on his well deserved victory at the Court of Appeal over the alleged certificate forgery case brought against him by the APC and her governorship candidate in the last gubernatorial election, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu. 

While describing the verdict of the appeal court which dismissed the certificate forgery suit by describing it as unmeritorious,  he stated that:

" Gov. Obaseki's victory is a victory for Edo people, the rule of law and academic excellence.  The verdict of the appeal court which upheld the earlier judgement  given by the lower court has driven a death nail into the political coffin of those who thought they could upturn the mandate of Edo people through the back door"

Going further, the lawmaker commended Gov. Obaseki for his giant developmental strides and urged him to keep up the good work even as he enjoined him not to be distracted by the weather-beaten antics of opposition elements who are bent on distracting his administration with pointless and needless litigations.  He admonished the opposition elements to discontinue their " judicial voyage-to-nowhere" and join hands with the governor to make Edo great again. 

Finally, the astute federal lawmaker commended the judiciary for once again defending democracy and upholding the rule of law.

EDO 2024:- Esan people must look beyond personal interest to make the "Esan Agenda" fly.

  There is every indication that the unguarded spirited moves in certain quarters, to present a common candidate for Edo Central, to succeed the incumbent Governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, come 2024 Governorship Election, will spell doom for the entire Esan Agenda. This is so because the emerging political reality or permutations no longer favour featuring an Esan indigene to queue behind Governor Goodwin Obaseki, from outside his direct influence.  The point being made here is that it is no longer tenable for political godfathers to force their candidates on the people of Edo State, given the way and manner the current Edo State Governor was able to roll back the political clock that eventually resulted in his favour. In succeeding to demystify the once potent political influence of the godfathers in Edo State, Governor Goodwin Obaseki has historically set an interesting precedent. This is the fact of the matter: no known political godfathers in Edo State can...
