JUST IN; Edo Guber election is a do or die affair- Governor Obaseki declares
The Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki has on Saturday declared that the upcoming governorship election is a “do-or-die affair.”
Speaking at a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rally in Ekemwan, Obaseki cautioned that any electoral misconduct by the opposition could result in severe consequences.
“The person I took over from had no respect for our people, had no respect for women, encouraged prostitution and women trafficking.
“When I took over office our pensioners wore black on Labour Day buy today they wear white.
“When I took office, our youths had no jobs, but today don’t they have jobs? After eight years is Edo not one of the safest in Nigeria?
“This election is a do or die, if they do, we will die. Next week Saturday by this time, vote for PDP to become the next governor.”
Edo State will hold its governorship election on Saturday, September 21.
The leading candidates are Asue Ighodalo from the PDP, Monday Okpebholo from the All Progressives Congress (APC), and Olumide Akpata from the Labour Party (LP).
