“We will make Edo Guber Poll a do-or-die affair” — Obaseki

Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State has emphasized the critical importance of next week’s governorship election in the state, highlighting its significance.

He stated that the election will be a do-or-die affair if the opposition party engages in any form of electoral malpractices.

He spoke during a Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, rally in the Ekemwan area of the state on Saturday.

He said, “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.”

On Saturday, September 21, the people of Edo State will file out to vote for the next governor of the state.

Asue Ighodalo of the PDP, Monday Okpebholo of the All Progressives Congress, APC, and Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party, LP, are the front runners in the governorship election.
