Battle for Edo: Who do you think will replace Oshomole and seat comfortably on the seat, while serving the people?

The stage is set for the Edo governorship election coming up on September 10, 2016. Momentum is gradually building up across major political parties in the state . Infact, President Buhari is and his entourage are currently in Edo state for rally.  

Ize-Iyamu and Obaseki  will join other two candidates from APGA and the Labour Party to stake a claim to Oshiomhole seat.

On Monday, June 20, Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo state made a remark after
the PDP governorship candidate, Osagie Ize-Iyamu won the PDP governorship primaries. Oshiomhole said Ize-Iyamu was a featherweight.

The comment of the comrade-governor is coming on the heels of the fact that the PDP flag bearer will contest the Edo governorship election of this year, with his own anointed candidate, Godwin Obaseki.

A good number of Edo state indigenes and some Nigerians have started reacting to the
emergence of the two political titans.

Critics of Governor Oshiomhole believe it is high time the PDP took over Edo state from the high-handedness of the APC in the state. These anti-APC people believe, the current governor is more of an authoritarian.

On the other hand, anti-PDP forces are of the opinion that, the only thing Edo state needs, is someone who knows the in and out of the state, like the APC governorship flagbearer. They opined that it is continuity that the people of the
state need.

Since Osagie is part and parcel of the APC current administration, therefore he will be coming to a familiar terrain.

Both men have their strengths and weaknesses. However, the electorates of Edo state will have the final say, as to which of the two men deserves to put on the shoes that will be left by Oshiomhole.

So who do you think the cap will fit?
