Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State has sounded a stern warning ahead of next week’s governorship election, describing it as a pivotal moment for the state. Speaking at a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rally in the Ekemwan area on Saturday, Obaseki stressed that the election could turn into a "do-or-die" affair if the opposition engages in electoral malpractices.
During his address, the governor criticized his predecessor, accusing him of disrespecting the people of Edo, fostering prostitution, and failing to tackle women trafficking. “When I took over office, our pensioners wore black on Labour Day, but today they wear white,” Obaseki noted. He also highlighted job creation under his administration and claimed that Edo has become one of the safest states in Nigeria.
Obaseki urged supporters to ensure the PDP retains the governorship, emphasizing the high stakes in the September 21 election. The contest features major candidates Asue Ighodalo (PDP), Monday Okpebholo (APC), and Olumide Akpata (Labour Party), who are vying for the governorship in what is expected to be a closely watched race.
