The Edo state government said the major aim of the All Progressive Congress APC in the state house of Assembly elections schedule for March 11 is to secure a winning streak which will enable them to impeach governor Godwin Obaseki.
This statement was made by the chief of staff to the state governor Hon. Osaigbovo Iyoha in Benin during a campaign to solicits for votes from market women ahead of the March 11 House of Assembly elections in the state.
He said, “The March 11, 2023 House of Assembly election is for Governor Godwin Obaseki to sustain efforts at developing the State and making life more meaningful and better for Edo people.”
Urging the people to reject the All Progressives Congress (APC), Obaseki said, “Plans are ongoing by the APC to rig their way through on March 11 so as to impeach the governor and stop his developmental programmes which have benefited the people of Edo State. Adams Oshiomhole and his party are planning to disrupt all the good works the governor is doing in Edo State.
“We will stop him and his plans to disturb the governor and his developmental strides in Edo State. We are appealing to the people to vote for PDP and stop the enemy of the Edo people from halting our progress as a people. All our votes must be one way. It must be PDP all the way.”
The chief of staff also promised the women who are from the 12 wards in Oredo Local Government Areas (LGAs) of the state that the Obaseki administration will sustain reforms and policies to ensure women’s empowerment and welfare.
Responding, the Woman Leader in Oredo LGA, Hon. Meg Aigbokhae said, “We have 12 wards in Oredo and 619 units and all the women in these units are present here today. The election is critical and our party needs to be victorious as the party needs its members in
