Human rights activist and president of One Love Foundation, Chief Dr Patrick Osagie Eholor has talent the Chairman of Edo State branch of the Nigerian Bar Association NBA to the cleaners
Reacting to a Press Statement issued by NBA Benin, where his personality was attacked, Eholor wondered why the branch did barely addressed the salient issues he raised in a previous video, before attacking him.
In a new video, published below, the multimillionaire-activist threw darts at the Chairman for attacking him. Also below is a Press Statement supporting the video, by Eholor:
Re:Rejoinder to the Programmed and Automated Expressions of Ultimate Equal*
By Chief Patrick Osagie Eholor -Ultimate Equal.
I have come across a Statement issued by the NBA Benin Branch Exco with nickname dream team. Indeed the NBA Benin only get good governance in the dreams as the dream team has not woken up from its slumber.
Nosa Edo Osagie instead of addressing the issues raised went from one personal attack to another. Nosa Edo- Osagie , the Chairman of the NBA Benin Branch should know that he is supposed to have resigned as an official of Edo State Government before taking up the mantle of Leadership. How can you be the NBA Chairman and you are still a Member of the Edo State Private Property Protection Committee and a Board Member of the Edo State Public Procurement Agency?Is that not conflict of interest?
So instead of being a check on the Edo State Government, the NBA Benin Chairman is giving Awards to his boss-the Edo State Governor in Government House.
As a Litigant, I have won most of my cases, some which are now being cited by Lawyers in Court. But Nosa Edo-Osagie will not know, because he is not a practising Lawyer.
I have a very beautiful wife at home and a wonderful family. In fact I dropped my children at school this morning. On the contrary, Nosa Edo-Osagie has no wife at home, the Benin Elite know the story of how his wife left him in a very scandalous manner and relocated to the United States.
Nosa Edo-Osagie and his band of dreamers have conceded to my point that lawyers are working with the EFCC to make our young ones plea bargain under duress. Instead of addressing the issues, he chose to beg the question.
Unlike Nosa Edo-Osagie, I am not a dreamer, I am a realist. The NBA Benin Branch must rise against the impunity at the EFCC. If it took my intervention to bring this issue to public discourse, then it shows Nosa Edo-Osagie and his Exco are actually in dream land.

A REJOINDER TO THE PROGRAMMED AND AUTOMATED EXPRESSIONS OF ULTIMATE EQUALS.
Distinguished Colleagues,
The attention of the Chairman of the NBA, Benin branch, Nosa Francis Edo-Osagie, Esq. has been drawn to a strange video trending on social media, reportedly made by one Mr. Patrick Osagie, Eholor (Aka Ultimate Equals), an easily manipulated, garrulous, attention seeking, apparently troubled and intellectually handicapped social media busy bee.
In the said video which has been viewed by over 64, 000 persons on his facebook handle, the NGO businessman – turned politician berated the Chairman and members of the Benin Bar, accusing the former of inducing the latter with pecuniary offers to obtain victory at the polls that led to his emergence as the Chairman of the vibrant Benin Bar.
At the risk of descending very low to respond to the politically motivated balderdash from the cheap, illogical, opinionless, and self-acclaimed activist acting the desperate script of his personal Home Lesson Teachers, some of whom are aggrieved carrier Law Practice politicians in the NBA Benin branch, it has become necessary therefore, to respond to the said video in order to set the record straight and dutifully secure the legitimate satisfaction of the teeming lawyers in the NBA Benin branch.
Patrick Osagie, Eholor is a professional litigant with no significant record of court victory. Besides his lack of capacity, competence and wisdom to save his failed marriage, he has had a long and pitiable history of slow learning which eventually culminated in his obvious low self esteem. The amiable Chairman of the Benin Bar is therefore not surprised as to why the businessman operating under the aegis of One Love Foundation continues in his worrisome struggle to be counted among those engaging learned minds even on legal issues. This is a case of inferiority complex taken too far.
No one could have better expressed the temerity of the former economic refugee in Canada, than Chinua Achebe, when in the popular Novel; “Things Fall Apart”, he said “…after eating a heavy meal, _Nwanza_ the bird decided to challenge his _chi_ to a wrestling match”. Such was the views of right thinking lawyers in Edo State when the video under reference surfaced on the internet.
On the mandate to set the record straight, it is to be noted that the issue between the EFCC, Benin zone and some lawyers only came to the kind attention of Mr. Chairman sometime last week. In his usual leadership characteristic, the former (47th) President of Rotary Club of Benin convened an emergency meeting of the NBA Benin Exco., where a decision was taken to set up a Committee headed by a respectable former Chairman of the Lion Bar; Prince Collins Ogiegbean to wade into the matter pending the outcome of the General Meeting of the Branch which has been scheduled to hold in few weeks.
Contrary to the falsehood maliciously peddled by the stomach-focused and innately corrupt NGO racketeer, also mockingly referred to as the “Ultimate Equals”, Nosa Edo-Osagie, a successful businessman with specialty in Corporate and Property Law emerged as the winner and Chairman of the Benin Bar on popular mandate. Conversely, Nosa Edo-Osagie did not offer bribe or induced any member of the Lion Bar howsoever to secure his victory at the polls where he emerged in a seemingly flawless victory. In other words, Nosa Edo-Osagie was voted into office as the Chairman of the prestigious Lion Bar based on his track record of excellent leadership and service to the Bar which has earned him all the awards the Benin Bar offers to distinguished colleagues. The NBA Benin branch is therefore not surprised that Mr. Patrick’s Home Lesson Teachers who are known to be disgruntled by the stirling and dispassionate leadership of their Chairman have obviously and maliciously fed their Messenger of Lies with more lies.
No one will suffer any wrong without a remedy. In due time, Mr. Patrick shall be summoned to justify his ill assertions made against the Chairman and members of the NBA Benin branch. At this point, we shall draw the curtain in order not to further dignify a loquacious and apparently lonely ignoramus.
The Lion Bar will continue to protect the professional dignity of all law abiding lawyers engaged in the business of law practice in Edo State.
Signed: The Dream Team.
