Chief Dr Patrick Osagie Eholor otherwise known as Ultimate Equal President One Love Foundation, Senior Advocate Of the Masses, Eholor who spoke on Obaseki's past, present and future, he said:
"This is an eye opening for the enogie, the traditional ruler and the Benin traditional council as a whole, and I know that Traditional rulers in Edo state are about 250 to 300 yet Governor Godwin Obaseki said he will be paying them. Can anyone trust a serial betrayal like Governor Godwin Obaseki who has betrayed all humankind?
If he recognise the oba of Benin as the head of Benin traditional council why then is Godwin Obaseki owing the Benin traditional council for 7 months amounting to 600,000,000. I'm not putting this up, It is verifiable from the BTC.
Obviously Godwin Nogheghase Obaseki is doing all of these things to taunt and witch hunt the Omo no Oba of Benin and he is doing this against our ancestors because who fights the Oba of Benin fights the benins.
We all can recall that during the last election, Governor Godwin Obaseki rolled out the position of SA and SSA and after he have fraudulently rigged the election through his Chief of Thug (Osaigbovo Iyoha) who molested and harassed everyone, it didn't even get up to a month after the election, Godwin Obaseki fired the SA and SSA after using them selfishly and you all also know that there is a serious right between himself and his deputy Governor Philip Shaibu because if both selfish interest. So I am calling on the enogies, the chiefs that they should please do not believe Godwin Obaseki and If ever he ment what he said then he should release the 600,000,000 owed to the Traditional Council. Godwin Obaseki is not the first Governor we have, every governor has adhere to this and this money is coming from the Federal allocation, if GODWIN OBASEKI can get the security vote monthly which he doesn't use to secure anybody because we probably the highest security in Edo state.
The reason why Governor Godwin Obaseki is doing all of these is because the local government election is coming, he is therefore using this to taunt all the chiefs, because if he gives them the stipend they'll think someone Good is about to happen...
Beware of Godwin Obaseki and his tricks, he does not mean well for the palace.
Governor Godwin Obaseki there are lot of things to battle with, Our roads are bad, hospitals need to be fixed and subsidized so the ordinary citizen can have access to healthcare, the Governor should leave the Palace alone and stop peddling with the Royal affairs. The Traditional Council has been in existence and will continue to be in existence even after his 8 years of governorship.
We can no longer tolerate this act as the Governor of Edo State has crossed the boundaries, the child that says his mother will not sleep himself will not sleep! "
