In 1897, a certain native of Benin called OBASEKI, working with a certain stranger in Benin called PHILLIP connived to overrun Benin and deported Oba Ovonrawen to Calabar.
Recall that in 1897 it was Chief Agho OBASEKI and Captain James PHILLIP that invaded the Benin Empire to dethrone our revered Oba Ovonramen.

Oba Ovonramwen, who was betrayed by his friend and chief, Obaseki
Benin City after the invasion by Philip who was helped by Ovonramwen
Oshiomole has brought back same combination of OBASEKI and PHILIP for Governor and Deputy Governor.
All Edo people must resist this AWUAH.
The only way you can stop the repeat of that unfortunate history is to VOTE PDP.
Chief Agho Obaseki who almost usurped the Benin throne at the exit of Oba Ovonramwen
Philip Shuaibu, APC candidate for Deputy Governor. Could this be the reincarnation of Captain Philip of 1897?
Godwin ENOGHEGHASE Obaseki, could this be the reincarnation of Agho Obaseki who challenged Oba Ovonramwen and his son, Prince Aiguobasimwin? His name is in itself an affront on the Oba because in Benin we have OGHOBAGHASE, not ENOGHEGHASE.
