Edo State of Nigeria celebrates two of their illustrious sons Dr. Samuel Osaigbovo Ogbemudia and Chief Dr. Sir Gabriel Osawaru Igbinedion born in September. The birthday of Chief Igbinedion is 11th September, he is 78 years old. While that of Dr. Ogbemudia is 18th, his is 80 years old. Dr Ogbemudia was a two time governor of the old Midwestern State and later Bendel State. The State was later divided into Edo and Delta States. It is good to note that Dr Ogbemudia became a military Governor in 1967 at the age of 35 while the president or Head of State at the time was 28 years old, a feet no longer possible in today's Nigeria. He was elected as Governor in 1983, but their government was over thrown by a military coup lead by General Mohammend Buhari. Chief Gabriel Osawaru Igbinedion is a businessman. He is also the Esama of Benin Kingdom, a highly place Chief in the Oba of Benin Palace. He pioneered the private Airline industry and private University in Nigeria. He owned defunct Okada Airline, Igbinedion University, Igbinedion Education Centre (which is a private primay and secondary school). Chief Igbinedion is regarded as a marketing genius. He named his Airline after his village Okada, and because the Airline was marketed as the cheapest way to travel, Nigerians bought into it and today they popularly call motorcycle transport in the country Okada.
Again happy Birthday to these two great sons of Edo State.

Yesterday, September 11th 2012 a big crater opened up at the middle of the Benin- Abraka Road near the Ikpe river. We are calling on the Ministry of  N iger Delta to instruct RCC to move to that site immediately before it start to kill our people. As a matter of fact that Federal road is the only federal presence in the whole of Orhionmwon Local Government area.

The attention of the Federal Ministry of/for the Niger Delta is urgently needed to deal with the issues arising from the road construction going on along the Benin-Abraka Road. The road as you are all aware was awarded for construction by the Ministry in 2010 to the Reynolds Construction Company, RCC. But 2 years on they have only done about 8 kilometres. The road is one of the major link-road between Edo State and Delta Statel It links Benin City to the University town of Abraka and Benin City to the food basket of Edo State, Orhionmwion Local Government Area. The question people are asking is has the Federal Government not meant their obligation to the contractor for the job? If they have, how much was paid and what is the duration for the execution of the contract? If RCC is capable of constructing the Road, why is it taking them forever?

The dial is cast. On October 1st 2012 The Solomon Iyobosa Edebiri Centre for Change is inviting all Sons and Daughters of Edo South to a Seminar at the Moat Hall of Motel Benin Plaza, Benin City at 11 am.

 The issues of our environment and the safety of our traders in our markets are serious issues of concern to me and my party. We went to the market to thank our people for their votes and found our people trading in the streets. We asked them why this new development which we observed after the elections? They gladly told us that it was a concession giving to them by ACN for voting for their candidate. I am glad that the Comrade Governor addressed this issue by drawing the attention of the environmental ministry to it and showing thier meeting on the evening news.

@ Dr. Nosa Alaseselu, Madam I am quite aware that elections are over. The issues of our environment and the safety of our traders in our markets are serious issues of concern to me and my party. We went to the market to thank our people for their votes and found our people trading in the streets. We asked them why this new development which we observed after the elections? They gladly told us that it was a concession giving to them by ACN for voting for their candidate. I am glad that the Comrade Governor addressed this issue by drawing the attention of the environmental ministry to it and showing thier meeting on the evening news.

The main issue here is about gun ownership. Most thugs, area boys, thieves, armed robbers and cultist in Nigeria all have guns. We the 99% moral majority are living at their mercy. Just like the GSM, I thing if gun ownership is liberalised it will reduce crime and bravado in Nigeria. If you know that I am wired up or if you know I have the ability to check mate your aggression you go maintain.

On the issue of oil revenue and its misuse. Here is my contribution. Nigerians what will it cost for the government to build a railway line to connect all towns, cities and local government headquarters all over the country? If we pay just $1 trillion dollars to the Americans over a ten years period I think they can deliver on this project. We will not only network our cities, create jobs we will also be advancing the living standard of our people.
