By Prince Igunbor Stanley.  Sept 23, 2020. The problem with APC campaign was that they didn't say anything specific they would do, just like Obaseki said 4 years ago: among other things; 200,000 jobs, Gele gele seaport Dev, etc. The simple agenda was a headline, or topic of the book. The body or content were not specific, against the acclaimed specificity adduced. S.I.M.P.L.E. *SECURITY: Under security, APC Should have said something like; obaseki gives police only #5m . We will be giving police #200m monthly, so they can station a patrol vehicle on every street and every 2 kilometers on the highway. Etc. INFRASTRUCTURE: *APC Should have said APC government will construct an over head bridge road from ikpoba slope direct to m.m.way ending before igun junction to remove the chances of accident at that junction. *Pedestrian bridges over major roads joint at Ring road, to eliminate the incident of pedestrians crossing Akpakpava/sakpoba/sapele roads; ditto urokpota/...

TRUTH BE TOLD: OBASEKI FACILITATED "TWIN INDUSTRIES" AT OLOGBO IS A BOLD MOVE TOWARDS MAKING EDO, ONE OF THE MOST ADVANCED STATE IN NIGERIA.   Prince I. Stanley.       Sept 19th,  2020 At the beginning of Oshiomhole's regime, it took more than a  year before projects by his new administration,  commenced. Osho at the time canvassed two excuses for the delay. One was that the then opposition dominated house of assembly was  neither ready to approve the proposed projects nor pass a supplementary budget/review to accommodate  same; because the court restored Oshiomhole's mandate after 18 months of Prof Osariemen Osunbor. The second was that, he needs 10 months savings of #100m each month to be able to embark on a billion naira project as revenue from the federation account , was abismally low due to fallen oil prices in the international market, at the time.
