The Reasons Why Obaseki is Planning Tech-Park for Repentant Yahoo Boys

INTRO: The Governor of Edo State and the PDP Governorship candidate in the September 19, 2020 Edo Governorship election disclosed his plan to build what he called technology park for repentant internet fraudsters otherwise known as “Yahoo Boys”. He made the disclosure in his campaign rally in Wards 6,7 and 9 in Egor Local Government Area of the State. In that rally, he argued that he has done greater works in 4 years than what Oshiomhole did in 8 years. For the people of Egor Local Government Area, he said he reconstructed the Benin Technical College (BTC) now Government Science and Technical College (GSTC).

He gave the reason for building the tech-park for the repentant Yahoo Boys saying that it is to make them useful for the society.

In his words, “I will train young boys who do ‘yahoo’ to work in our technology park. We will train them and ensure they become more useful to society.”

Furthermore he said, “We have executed over 2000 projects in Edo in the past four years. What we have done in four years is more than what Oshiomhole did in eight years.

“So, when they say that Obaseki has done nothing in the past four years, it is a lie.”

Somebody should tell these politicians to stop toying with the masses. A campaign rally of this nature in Egor LGA of Edo State should be an occasion for enumerating a cornucopia of achievements in the LGA and not to be making unfounded comparisons. The people want the best and not who has done better than a failed predecessor. My people, we need to wake up because these people are taking us for granted.
