The Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, on Wednesday, met with the Igbo community in Benin City, the Edo State capital, to canvass votes for the candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP in the Saturday, March 18 elections.
Obaseki, at a one-day engagement with the Edo South Igbo community, held at the Youth House, Benin City, hailed the Igbo for their continued support for his administration, promising to sustain reforms and projects to ensure better livelihoods for all Edo residents.
The governor said, “I am here because you have been a key component of our government. We have done so much with you and will do even more. However, with your support, we know that no one will be able to trouble us.
“This election is ours in Edo. We have to vote for those who will work for us. It is important because whatever the governor has to do needs the consent of the members of the House of Assembly."
