Women in Government houses.

Governors have left the duty of running the states to their wifes and have taken up a womanly position. Imagine two grown men in a battle of words.

Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo state and his counterpart in Delta state, Ifeanyi Okowa have engaged in hot exchanges over accusations by the former that Okowa is planning to recruit thugs and hooligans to register as voters in Edo state ahead of the September 10 governorship election.

If you ask me Oshiomhole is more at fault for accusing a governor in another state. Are Deltans that jobless? To leave their state and engage in rigging processes to enthrone an Edo man into an Edo office for what purpose I ask?  We understand that in Nigeria any thing can happen but until it happens, don't play the omnipresent and omniscient.

Oshiomhole, says no PVC cloning in the state.

Governor Adams Oshiomhole of Edo State a die hard Burharmaniac  has redressed rumours of purchasing or cloning of Permanent Voter Cards (PVCs) by an aspirant in upcoming governorship election in the state, describing it as "fallacy’’.

Oshiomhole told newsmen after casting his vote at All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship primaries at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Benin City on Saturday that such PVC racketing was not possible, given measures put in place.

He said the rumour was diversionary and part of antics usually recorded in any electoral process.

The governor assured that the primaries and the main election coming up on Sept. 10 in the state would be transparent, fair and credible.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that before the commencement of polling in the primary, Chairman of the Committee handling the exercise, Gov. Aminu Masari of Katsina, had announced that voting would be thump-printing against photograph of the aspirants.

Masari dissuaded delegates against taking photograph of their voting card, saying that "the interest of Edo should be the driving motive of those who want to be at the driving seat of the state”.

He said whoever emerges winner of the primaries will need the other aspirants' support to face candidates of the other parties, hence there will be no loser at the end of the day.
