 State chapter of the All Progressives Congress appears to express concern on the death profile of the state as it claims that it is currently second highest indebted in the country. Addressing journalist in Benin City, the state capital, chairman of the party, David Imuse, lamented the manner at which the state has been run by Governor Gadwin Obaseke. Godwin Obaseke second term in office, which is supposed to be a democratic setup, is now a dictatorship, as the man has turned those states into a personal empire. As emperor, he has conveniently castrated the state legislature, emasculated the judiciary, and operated the executive branch as the sole administrator. He has lost every regard for rule of law, as his word is now law. The situation is so bad that Mr Obaseke is today the lawmaker, the judge, and even the prison all pulled together. Emperor Obaseke flagrant abuse of power is legendary. He has refused to conduct local government elections for chairman and councilors, and has succeeded in keeping the council's territorial locations in the bid to clear the 60 billion debt he claimed be owed. In very simple terms, the Obaseke government has boosted the domestic debt of the state since 2016 by 75 billion Naira. This is exclusive of the state foreign debt of over 280 million dollars from available records. The second most indebted state in Nigeria, Tango Governor Obaseke, is a real estate.
