EdoDebate
"We do not know about the illegal levies being collected in Edo state"-Godwin Obaseki.
"The present government has excelled in wealth Consumption, not wealth Creation" - Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu.
"If the government wants to scrap security votes for governors I have no problem with it, but if it must continue, it must be used for securing the state. Security vote is not what the governor should be playing with, but must be used judiciously to secure the lives and properties of our people"... Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu.
Referring to the 'simple agenda' of PDP's Ize-Iyamu, Obaseki pointed out that this is the time for us to be circumspect and think things through very carefully, not simplistically. "Simple solutions cannot solve our complex political problems; they cannot solve our complex economic problems; and can definitely not solve our complex security problems. It is mental indolence to think there are simple solutions to our problems."
The APC flagbearer noted, "The world is set for the Fourth Industrial Revolution. We have identified the cycles and markers and we are prepared to play our part in this forward shift in the gears, ideologically opposed to being left behind. Our vision is a modern and progressive Edo State where every citizen is empowered with opportunity to live life in its fullness."
These are some of the quotes from EdoDebate held over the weekend.Some pundits claimed that Obaseki failed woefully while others said it was Pastor Osagie who fumbled at the debate
