At the Oredo APC LGA Mega Rally, the APC governorship candidate, Senator Monday Okpebholo, unveiled his 5-point agenda for the people of Edo state.
Okpebholo’s 5-point agenda includes declaring a state of emergency on security, focusing on rural and infrastructural development, creating over 5,000 teaching jobs to revamp the education sector, boosting the agricultural sector, and improving healthcare delivery for Edo people. He also pledged to provide soft loans for market women.
The director general of the campaign, Senator Mathew Uroghide, presented Okpebholo and Idahosa as a hardworking candidate with a proven track record of delivering impactful projects in his constituency.
The APC leader, Senator Adams Oshiomole charged the people to reject the “enemy of the Oba palace,” a clear reference to the incumbent governor, Godwin Obaseki.
He promised that the APC would hold the current administration accountable, highlighting how they stored rice given to Edo people by president Tinubu in Sapele road, hoping to repackage and distribute them for votes during election next month.
APC deputy governorship candidate, Hon Dennis Idahosa, vowed that the lands collected by Obaseki and given to his cronies would be returned to the people of Okoroma. The rally was a display of the APC’s determination to wrestle power from the incumbent and implement its transformative agenda for Edo state.
