BREAKING: OBA MARKET ON FIRE.
By Favour Onoruese (9News Nigeria)
As at the early hours of this morning, reports got to us that the OBA Market in Benin city Edo state is on fire.
It so happens that this fire outbreak is happening on the same day the EPM are having their Primary election.
We know for sure that the obvious reason for this arson , is to paint the current Government in bad light and to further distract the Government from flawlessly enforcing the Covid-19 Gazette.
And to further get the Government busy with the affairs of the masses, they now know that the Governor takes the cry of the masses very seriously.
The State Governor,as at 2:00am today was already up, putting calls across to the Commissioner of police and The fire Service, to deploy men there to cushion the fire emergency.
Since morning the Governor has been busy trying to reach out to the affected victims , the banks and other valuable institutions that’ll help give succor to the affected persons.
We can see that the strategy of the perpetrators of this arson has paid off by trying to distract the Governor. But we thank God that the Governor is good at handling multiple tasks and he’ll do his best to remedy the situation and make sure that at the end of the day the market women and other affected victims are happy and at peace.
The people of Edo state should understand that the undertone behind this arson is to distract the government, so that the EPM can have ample time to conduct their illegal primary election, which the INEC,DSS and Police are not aware of.
Edo people should be aware that these desperate people are punishing the market women just for them to get to power by all means because they know that when they assume power , they’ll mean no good for the common man but to steal , loot and siphon the resources of the Edo people.
