Still my response to the Esama post..... @ Dan Oshodin for your information The Esama marketing skills are both acknowledge byl Nigerians and many Universities. One of which is the OKADA transport phenomenon. They are studying the concept of making air travel as cheap as the Ecama did to warranty people now referring to cheap motorcycle transport as OKADA. I hear they are planing to add okada to the English dictionary. Remember that this is the name of the Esama's village which he has singlehandedly transformed into a household name. Lastly we are BENINS not Bini.

My response to a post about the Esama of Benin and Dr Adoghe respond..

.......@ Anthony Adoghe that you honestly don't care about the Easma does not remove from the fact he is the Hero and Icon of the Benins. I know you are in the medical profession and I am happy for you. However, I challenge you to first try your hands in business in the Nigeria business environment and succeed before you start judging others. I will boldly say that from my personal business experience that the NIGERIAN WORKER comes to work with the primary aim of ruining his employer. Even your co- Medical Doctors find it VERY difficult to work in a hospital that is owned by a non medical professional. We must change these prevailing attitude before we can say some could not manage his business.

My response on the killings of 95  policemen in Nasarawa State by some militant group..... They are very Foolish. How can they just give the security forces an excuse on a planter of gold to wipe them out of existence. Very soon they will get the Odi treatment. I just pity the day they were born.  Even if the high command refuses to order an attack the rank and file will definitely attack that community. I just hope the international community who are yet to make comment will also keep quite then.

My response to the news that a member of Edo State house of Assembly was remanded in prision custody because he was found with a gun on election day. However, the police say that he was arrested for armed robbery..... Why does the police always charge cases to the wrong courts? They know that the magistrate court can not entertain the case but they will still send it there. Just to clog the wheel of justice. Why are his colleagues not coming to his rescue? I think the decision to remand him is very hash.

Today we crossed the 20,000 readers mark. Lets keep it up as I will post news of events as it happens in Benin City. One thing thou I want to read your comments. I know that most of you do not agree with most of the things you read here. Make your opinion count. Post your response today. Thanks

Another response....Today I was at Fugar in Esatko Central where I saw the development in the area of GOOD ROADS Admiral Mike Akhigbe gave to his people. The road network has also brought development. I saw many new home springing up sll over the town. I was happy to know that this man affected the life of his people intensly and his people really appreciated his effort. My host was very proud to go and show me his house. I joined then in praying for him  though we did not feel his impact in Edo South. His people will not see anything wrong that as a vice president the whole state did not feel his impact, I do not worship man. @ Prince Stephen Obakpee, I supply educational materials to universities in Nigeria and IU Okada happens to be one of them. I do not know the relationship you or your Dad had with the Esama. I am glad your Dad regal you with stories of his relationship with the Esama and many other parents do. The successful ones says  he has made us proud. While those who missed the train will give him name. Nigerians call it Pull Him Down.  I do not know how old you are but Igbinedion already made his mark in Business before the age of 32. He celebrated his 40th birthday in a grand style here in Benin. He made his name before his son became the governor. When people are successful in Nigeria many lazy minds who cannot explain their failure always resort to calling successful people 419. I have seen people who are really small fly been called 419 even here on EPF, so what do you expect a major stakeholder like the Esama to be called? @ those others whose antecedence one cannot locate in the radar of their own village dont let your situation in life be cloud your vision. Celebrate success so that you will be celebrated. According to Prince Stephen Obakpee it is only a vagabond that uses his left hand to point out his fathers house.

My response to a post on Edo Political Forum on facebook....  I am pain for wasting my precious time to read your very bias article. I knew you were out for a hatch job when you slyly mentioned that the Oba walked to the court playing on our emotions and respect for our Oba.. Anyway your write up did not achieve its intended purpose. For one I am not convinced that you actually Stayed in Benin for a long time. It looks more like you came here on short vacation just like you did in December. How can you not know the Chief Igbinedion, the Esama of Benin of the Hero and darling of Edo South people? Where were you when his classmate exempted him from manual labour at a very young age and popularly call him EXEMPTION? Where were you and your paymaster when this illustrious Benin Chief brought the HINO motor brand to Benin City. Where were you when the Esama single handily started producing Canada Dry, Okada Dry in Benin City? Did you forget the Okada Air? If I may ask where was your paymaster? You visited the Ring Road in Benin City and went back home saying all is well. What about the other 6 local government of Edo South? My advise to you is to continue to enjoy the hospitality we the Benin people have always provided people of other tribes and also respect our institutions and Elders.
