#EdoDecides2024: APC candidate Okpebholo brags, says “PDP won’t get a single vote in my Unit”
The candidate of the All Progressive Congress (APC), Monday Okpebholo has bragged that the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP will not secure a single vote at his polling unit in the 2024 governorship election.
Okpebholo made this statement immediately after exercising his voting right on the Saturday of the election day.
He attributed his confidence to his popularity among the people in his hometown.
“I have nothing to fear,” Okpebholo said. “PDP or whatever will not get one vote here because this is my home and my people love me.”
Meanwhile, PDP candidate Asue Ighodalo has expressed concerns over the late arrival of INEC officials at Ward 1, PU 3, Ewohimi, Esan south-east LGA.
Ighodalo stressed that the large crowd at his polling unit must not be disenfranchised and called for an extension of time to allow voters to cast their ballots.
This development comes amidst fears of violence and logistical challenges in eight local government areas identified by Yiaga Africa, including Ikpoba/Okha, Oredo, Egor, Ovia South-West, Ovia North-East, Esan South-East, Etsako West, and Etsako East.
The election has 17 candidates vying for the top spot.
