The candidate of the All Progressives Congress for the September 21 governorship election, Monday Okpebholo, on Wednesday, said that he would not be governor of Edo Central but governor of all Edo people.
Okpebholo made the remark while speaking at the ward-to-ward governorship campaign in Iguobazuwa, Ovia South West Local Government Area of Edo State.
The governorship candidate of the APC vowed to ensure government presence is felt across the state.
He said, “If I become the governor, I will not be governor of Edo Central but governor for all Edo people and government presence will be felt across the state.
“I assure you all that our government will end all the pains that have been inflicted on the people of Edo State,” he assured.
On his part, the governorship candidate, Dennis Idahosa, appealed to the people of Ovia to support the APC, noting that the other political leaders in Ovia have joined the APC.
Also speaking, former House of Representative member, Omosede Igbinedion, told the people of Ovia South West to vote APC on September 21.
She said, “I am now with my brother Dennis Idahosa in APC, so make sure you vote APC on September 21 to deliver Okpebholo as governor,” she stated.
At Ugbogui, former governor Adams Oshiomhole said, “I came to present our candidate to you people today, I know you people will come out and vote for APC on September 21.
“You all know Dennis Idahosa and voted for him twice before, so this time you have to give them your votes again.”
