Edo isn't Lagos. If U like tell us he is from Igbo, we will still vote for him as far as he has capacity, sympathy and ready to turn Edo back to the giant of the world.
You've said it!🎉
If that is the case, why then is he desperately seeking validation as a Bini guy even though he already clearly a Bini guy?
Na you get my my voter card after September 21 I go find to tell you how far. If this man they APC you go vote am? We no they follow party anymore but capacity. Na Peter OBI make us vote labour party no be say we be labour party members

Because mischief makers like you would say OLUMIDE is a Yoruba name, and Apata is Yoruba too. Irrespective of the names, he's 💯 bini.
That was the Edo I grew up in too. Unfortunately, politicians and social media are eroding that good and civil character.
You should expect that, some Edo people will have yoruba names due to relation. Ancient history suggests very close integrated mixing and relation in regards to obaship. Even the current Oba of benin will have yoruba & Edo bloodline.
The Oba of bini only has bini bloodline. The yorubas share a common culture with the Edos because of our son, Oduduwa who went to Yorubaland to run over them
@osas3857 If you check correctly Oduduwa came from yorubaland (ile ife). The oba of benin knows this as the true ancestral Origin, the son of oduduwa was Ọranyan, a legendary Yoruba king from the kingdom of Ile-Ife, he went to benin and named it ile-binu which is now called present day (benin) Ọranyan he took a bini wife and produced Eweka 1 the first oba of benin and the linage continues, the current oba of benin will be yoruba & Binis together.
Some Edo people bear Yoruba names, like me.
If they like, say he is from the moon we will vote for him. He has shown capacity and the fact that he is under the coaching of PO and LP.
Mark my word he will shock By the outcome of the election. He will never win
Which LP? The one they are all fighting for small money in their party. Asuen is and remains the best candidate in this election. To be honest, we can't compare Obi's government as Anambra gov to Obaseki's government in Edo state.Obaseki comes far on top by achievements, we only like Obi for his frugality not performance.
I am from Ishan, Edo State. Three people from my family have Yoruba names, although we are never affiliated to Yoruba people. Our parents who gave us the Yoruba names didn't understand the meaning of the names, and never lived in any of the Yoruba areas. Historically, it happened that I was born as Buldozers were pouring into our village for the construction of our main road. The contractor was a Yoruba man. His name was Babatunde, for example. My father named me, therefore, Babatunde. The other two people (my uncle's children )were named Dupe and Temitope many years later.
And, guess what ! After Edo state, Lagos was the only state in which I lived before checking out. I love my Yoruba name because of its meaning, and because it is very short. It is one of the shortest names in Nigeria. For me, personally, it is better than having a colonial name ( a French name or an English name ) which I see as a mark of slavery. Your name is your African identity. It is very symbolic.
Point of correction: The name is not “Ishan” it is “Esan.” It still surprises me that, even after 64 years since the British left Nigeria following independence, many people from Esan land still use the word “Ishan,” a term derived from the British pronunciation… ESAN IS THE NAME.
LP all the way
@@successautosishan not esan
@@DROEMEKA-is2wcIt’s Esan
@@ruth_adewole_o ishan ~esan not eson~san.
For our great Oba to know you in person and mentioned your name is glory upon glory we the Benin know the meaning
When an intelligent person speaks, you must know.
True son of the soul the incoming governor of Edo State ❤
Olumide all the way.
By tribe he may be a Yoruba man but his state of origin is Edo according to Nigerian govt and that qualifies him to run.If he's filling any official document he would write Edo as his state not Ondo or any other Yoruba state. Being the governor of Edo won't make him leave Edo state to start developing any Yoruba state. If SS governors are having a meeting,he would join them not SW governors forum. If Edo state becomes better than he met it,none of you against him today would remember his tribe again.
He's not even a Yoruba, he's an Edo man from Bini
@@lantkolawole okay good to know this..
Akpata all the way
Olumide Osaigbovo Akpata the next governor of Edo State we the obidients are rally our heavyweight behind you❤
Maybe 2032 not at the present. Olumide Akpata still need to learn more about how to govern Edo state 🙄
See mumu see you..
U will never have sense@@jobasuyi74
He will win
Today no Abian is talking about where Gov Alex Otti comes from. Every Abian is enjoying good governance.
We have seen and heard this kind noise before, the noise about Nyesom Wike performance as governor of Rivers state was louder than this, at the end there is not much to show for it.
@@anthonyajibolaomoruyi8054😈😈😈😈😈😈
@@anthonyajibolaomoruyi8054 pls you can visit Abia state. Alex Otti is doing way better than your gov.
@@anthonyajibolaomoruyi8054LP isn't about noise , go and verify
What is the tin about Edo state sef…they all always seem quite calm,intelligent and quite educated and exposed politically compared to let’s say other people of Nigeria…They always seem sincere and calm really unlike a typical Nigerian politician
You got all that from listening to Olumide Apata? Be careful of generalization, it's naivety at its core.
@@Criticalthinking01why are you so pain be positive for once
Thank you!🎉🎉🎉🎉
@@Criticalthinking01
Is this jealousy or not?
Edos are sincere. It's general knowledge. They're bold and courageous. They are assertive. Deal with it
Point of correction: The name is not “Ishan” it is “Esan.” It still surprises me that, even after 64 years since the British left Nigeria following independence, many people from Esan land still use the word “Ishan,” a term derived from the British pronunciation… ESAN IS THE NAME.
Good
Akpata all the way! we love him till infinity ♾️
Our next governor
Lp for edo state ❤🎉
I pray you become our governor
Edo Central will share their votes between pdp, Apc and labour party. Akpata will get bulk votes from Edo South and also considerable votes from Edo North Thant is how Akpata will win if Obaseki and INEC do not rigg the election?.
I tell you
Keep dreaming
I think the generality of Edos, regardless of geography, have resolved that governorship should go to the central.
How will you fixed the debt profile, my guy is talking about papa , mama, pikin 😂😂
He will come to you to borrow more money. You didn't hear about the deep thinking and innovative approach. How is Alex Otis doing it.?
@CamillusAmaechiMbah-gz2mf bro, na you for go answer the question na. Asue Ighodalo and Ogie all the way period
@@jobasuyi74you still dey back , come front so you fit see road
@jeovanikelechi9345 the fact say you still dey wheelchair, edo state people stand with two legs and we know where we are heading too. Asue Ighodalo and Ogie all the way
@@jobasuyi74 you have just one vote
hahaha Benin has identity crisis. Edo bear Yoruba names and most of them are Yoruba ancestry invited for one service or the other by the Oba in those days. Today they are Edo people
Stem cell natural organic product will help Mr. Apata to restore his skin back to normal.
Please let him have the information.
Just like tvc stations twisted that of Nnamdi Kanu.
Olumide Akpata himself tries to claim to be the "son of the palace" on several occasions, he didn't misspoke in the palace, he thought of getting undue advantage by that claim.
Hahaha 😂😂😂. You're now a mind reader? How hypocritical. You folks will say anything in the name of politics
@@wonderfulera63490: What has "mind reading" got to do with my original comment?
You must not comment if you have no idea about the topic being discussed, Olumide Akpata has been asked at different interviews if he is really a Bini man, and his answer/claim was always that he is the son of the palace.
If the claim of being the son of the palace was made the first time in the palace, our Oba wouldn't have bothered to state the fact straight in that form.
As usual You told a big period at your age you don't know the family lineage you came from.
This man go and set down allow power to go to ishan. You want to destroy the hard work of Obi in edo. Because of your greed.
You dey back seat, come front and see what LP has done in Abia state
But Obi is supporting him 🤷♂️
I am very sure this man will be the first to cryy for cancellation of the polls
What didbuou go to do in yhat evil palace oba Don use u score olitical point he is the only one that is correct. The oba palace has a perchsnt of distracting people. When the palace has trouble all edo people are sons of the palace. Yeye benin slave kingdom
I'm supporter of LP/Obi. LP has miscalculated dis time, bringin out a credible candidate in a wrong time. Write it down Apata cant win the election. There is already political Euphoria shifted 2Edo Central, Bringin Edo South under LP who want 2get power 1st time is a miss call.
My brother, You have a point but the people will decide and it will shock you. Abia abandone zoning and they are getting the benefit of democracy. Campaign will buttress this point more.
Abia is not Edo state
@@martinsibeanusi4317: Is Alex Otti of Abia now paying maybe 250k Naira minimum wage that we don't know of???
I really do hope Alex Otti's case will not be like that of Nyesom Wike with so much noise and little value.
@@anthonyajibolaomoruyi8054….Don’t be silly here!
Alex Otti is not Wike, he’s talking and the results are visible.
Abians are bearing witnesses
@@dubemellit2932: Bearing witness about 24h electricity supply that doesn't exist, just because one young girl circulated a 30 s WhatsApp video, are you guys even okay at all?
AI FOR GOVERNOR NA WE GET THE ELECTION
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂.
Chai. E go shock you! Na rigging una go do. Enemies of the land
Oga go sleep 😴. Comes September go loss and go back to your former business
At least he has a working and visible business... What about those who are career politicians?
A former president of the Nigerian Bar Association that can't articulate between "Son of the Palace" and "Son of the Soil"? It is no coincidence that many Binis bear Yoruba names. In Nigeria, people just don't pick up names from another ethic group. It happens, but it's rare. The fact that many Binis bear Yoruba names to me is an indication of some Yoruba origins. It occurs too frequently to just be about an affinity for Yoruba names. Akpata also means rock in Yoruba. Yes, you might choose to not identify as Yoruba today but you're likely of Yoruba ancestry. Of course you want to become governor of Edo State so I get it.
But your logic is faulty. You said it is rare for a Bini person to pick up YORUBA name just for the sake of it but what stops his own from being one of such rare occasions. Many people who are not from the South named their children good luck Jonathan and even people from the South named their children Buhari when these people were in power. Will their people disown them because they bear names which is not from their tribe. Nigerian politics will one day overcome this silly penchant for clutching at anything to discredit credible candidates just because you support a different candidate.
@@CamillusAmaechiMbah-gz2mf No. I said it was rare for Nigerians to pick up names from other ethnic groups for the sake of it but that it was not uncommon for Binis to bear Yoruba names, which means that the Binis aren't just picking up Yoruba names but bear these names because of a historical connection. I don't know how many people named their children Buhari, but again, I stand by my position that such act would be random. Goodluck Jonathan is a bad example because those are two English names.
There is a Yoruba speaking community in Edo state, they make up almost about an entire local government in Edo state in the Edo South... So, it is not uncommon to see people from here bearing Yoruba names whereas they are Edos... The issue is not because of his Yoruba names, but that he is from Edo South, the same region with the present governor... In my opinion I think Labour Party should have done better by strategically positioning a candidate from Edo central for governorship, not understanding the local politics can cost you a lot...
You're completely out of ur mind
This guy looks sound and good but the timing is wrong. PDP asue ighodalo is the man for the job. People that don't understand the politics of edo should stop commenting ignorantly. Obaseki has done well and has always stood on the side of the people . That's y he is hated by politicians . He nor dey share money.
Olumide is a Yoruba man!
Olumide is a name from Yoruba language. Olumide Akpata is a Benin man, a Nigerian. And answering a name from the Bible doesn't make you an Israelite nor an Arabic (Muslim) name make you an Arab. Olumide Akpata is a Benin man.
