Replicate what is happening in Abia by voting massively for Akpata – Otti tells Edo electorates

Governor Otti Storms Edo State, Drums Support For LP Guber Candidate Akpata

Abia State Governor Dr. Alex Otti, OFR, on Thursday, 12th September, stormed Benin City, the Edo State Capital, to drum support for the Labour Party Governorship Candidate Barr. Olumide Akpata and his Deputy Prince Yusulf Asamah Kadiri.

Speaking to a large crowd of cheering supporters who came out to receive him and the LP entourage, Governor Otti said that they came to reinforce the decision of the Edo People.

“The reason we came is to reinforce the decision you have already made because I know that you have taken a decision already. And I believe the decision you have made is to vote for Olumide Akpata and Kadiri. Your decision is the best.

“Edo State is too important to be left in the hands of people who are fighting. They will be fighting and then we come under and take what belongs to us”, Governor Otti declared.

The Governor charged the electorates to protect their votes after voting for the Labour Party.

“I have a challenge for all of you, particularly the young ones. And that challenge is that on that day, 21st of September, that challenge is that after voting where you have Mama, Papa, and Pikin, you must remain there to protect your votes. The rat cannot steal the property of a man who is awake.

“So you must be vigilant and awake. After voting, you must protect your votes. It is you that will protect the votes and also the candidate. So, it is a joint effort.

“Some people are asking if we will protect your votes. Of course, we will protect your votes. But you have to protect it at the polling Units and ensure the right result is announced. Thereafter, you can leave the rest for us”, Governor Otti assured.

Speaking further, the Governor assured the people of Edo State that the Labour Party is serious and committed to changing the lives of Edo people for good.

In his words, “I want to assure you that we are here for serious business and there is a template that the Labour Party has. The template we are implementing in Abia State is the template Olu will implement in Edo State. That template is about the people. It’s about you. It is not about the big men. The Labour Party candidate assured the people of Edo State that he would replicate what is happening in Abia in Edo if elected.

Governor Otti was joined in the campaign by the Secretary of the Labour Party Caretaker Committee Sen. Darlington Nwaokocha, Chief of Staff to the Governor, Pastor Caleb Ajagba PhD, Special Adviser to the Governor on Political Affairs – Hon. Iheanacho Obioma, The Commissioner for Local Government and Chieftaincy Affairs – Sir Prince Uzor Nwachukwu and other top Aides to the Governor.
