“Maintain Peace And Avoid Further Division Among Edo People.” — Otedo Youth Union Denies Involvement In Porkupyne’s Attack, Urges Edo People To Put Political Differences Aside 🚨 The Otedo Youth Union (OYU) has called on Edo people to maintain peace and avoid actions that could deepen tensions or create divisions within the state amid reactions to the attack on MC Porkupyne. In its public statement dated October 26, 2026, the union urged residents to put aside their political differences and other disagreements, warning against actions capable of creating further tension among the people. “We encourage everyone to maintain peace and avoid actions capable of causing further tension or division within EDO people regardless of differences in politics and other aspects of life,” the statement read. The union also condemned violence and intimidation, denied any involvement in the attack on MC Porkupyne, and called on the relevant authorities and security agencies to investigate the incident and ensure that anyone found responsible is brought to justice. OYU further urged the public to avoid spreading misinformation or associating the union with the incident, while expressing its wishes for MC Porkupyne’s speedy recovery.
“The Attack On Porkupyne Was Political. You People Should Remove The Palace From This, Stop Attracting Insults To The Palace” — Mc Abino 🚨 MC Abino has weighed in on the controversy surrounding the attack on MC Porkupyne, urging people to keep political disagreements separate from the traditional institution of the Oba of Benin. He said the Oba of Benin should not be treated as a subject of ridicule, adding that respect for the monarch is closely connected to respect for one’s parents and cultural heritage. According to MC Abino, politics should remain politics, and the revered traditional stool should not be drawn into what he described as negative political propaganda. He further argued that claims and counterclaims being circulated in connection with the attack on Porkupyne are exposing the Benin Palace to criticism from outsiders. He urged those discussing the incident to avoid involving the palace in political arguments. His comments add to the ongoing public debate surrounding the attack on MC Porkupyne, including questions about its alleged political dimension.

GOV. OKPEBHOLO’S SSA DION OSAGIE LINKS MC PORKUPYNE’S ATTACK TO HIS ASSOCIATION WITH ALBERT OBAZEE 🚨 Dion Osagie, Senior Special Assistant on Diaspora Matters to Governor Monday Okpebholo, has commented on MC Porkupyne’s association with Albert Obazee, raising questions about their interaction during the celebrations marking Oba Ewuare II’s 10th coronation anniversary. According to Osagie, Obazee has insulted Captain Hosa, Governor Okpebholo and other people he described as well-meaning Edo indigenes. He also alleged that Obazee had openly disrespected the Oba of Benin, questioning why Porkupyne would be seen laughing and joking with him. Osagie further claimed that Obazee had been banned from Edo State and described anyone associating with him as an enemy. He added that he had personally distanced himself from people who are friends with Obazee. The comments have drawn attention to the relationship between Porkupyne and Obazee amid the ongoing controversy surrounding the attack on the entertainer. Given Osagie’s position as a government appointee, his remarks may also raise questions about the distinction between his personal views and the official position of the Edo State Government. His statements alone do not establish that the government has adopted the same position or that Porkupyne’s association with Obazee was connected to the attack.
