Is Obaseki really that popular ? When did he start building his political structure ? Is this a people’s movement against Oshiomhole ? He only moved to the PDP a few nights ago. Is there something an “Ambode” in Politics should learn ?

If an opponent was already campaigning with the slogan. EdoNoBeLagos. Why then did Ize-Iyamu people allow Tinubu not only issue statements but also did a video ? Tinubu can support from the background and not be seen as the face of the elections No? Lesson 101 should PDP wins.

There’s nothing wrong with a political figure like Jagaban supporting a candidate but understanding the body language of electorates helps . Is there a research that shows a Tinubu’s open backing was good for Ize-Iyamu?They’re many ways Tinubu can support Iyamu without being seen

Oshiomhole making himself the major candidate for the elections didn’t help either. Allowing Ize-Iyamu be heard and seen, it is his campaign and he should have been allowed to go fight it out and not be seen like a back-up singer in a choir where he’s supposedly the lead vocalist

One thing for me is that politicians do not take studies seriously if they did someone should have known. Conduct a proper research of all the LGA’s to feel the pulse of the people about what they wanted that way you’d know what roles an Oshiomhole /Tinubu should play etc.

This is almost like what happened in Keats State during the general elections . The people of Kwara needed to sack the Saraki stronghold in Government House. Interestingly, Oshiomhole fought the Anenihs and Igbinedion then turned out to be one himself .

Kwara... So if you’re to be managing a Kwara or Edo situation - how will you then spin the narrative to reflect the candidates strengths and not that of The Godfather? I’d always insist politicians invest in studies, that way you know when people do not want a godfather.

There’s also the federal issue at stake that we haven’t talked about. People will be voting because the price of a mudu of rice is now a 1000 Naira. How’s the economy ? If a candidate represents the federal power will the state of the nation affect voting choices ? The issues.

I’ve seen people say down South Godfathers are kicked out, I disagree . Ibori is still the one running things even in states like Delta, but he is not seen. Is there anything the other Godfathers can learn from Ibori? Ibori still controls his base but you never see or hear him.

You all should take politics and elections like you’re about to invest in a Business - in business school I was taught the PESTLE Analysis, what are the cultural dynamics of a state that will make the people angry when an “outsider” tells them who to vote for ? Then there’s that

So a follower just had to draw my attention to this, he said Oshiomole was the opponent in Edo and he doesn’t even know what Pastor Ize-Iyamu looks like while in Lagos, Sanwo billboards were littered across people were begging they’d had enough- Tinubu didnt speak but Sanwo did.
