Edo 2020: APC Vows To Relegates Obaseki From Office
The All Progressives Congress (APC) Edo State Chairman for Media Campaign Council for the Edo governorship election, John Mayaki, has hinted that Governor Godwin Obaseki will be sent out of office by the people of the state.
Brandnewsday learned that Mayaki made this known on Monday at the inauguration of the State Media Campaign Council led by Hon. Patrick Obahiagbon who is the Deputy National Chairman on Media of the Ganduje-led APC National Campaign Council.
Mayaki, who was appointed Chairman of the State Media Campaign Council, said the inauguration of the campaign council and the sub-committees will revitalize the campaign.
According to him, the team is already recording giant strides evidenced by the swelling support for the party’s candidate, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu.
Edo State 2020: Obaseki
He said: “The inauguration of the media campaign council today heralds the commencement of another phase in what has been a very successful campaign thus far.
“Unsurprisingly, across the 18 LGAs of Edo State, the people have expressed a clear rejection of Governor Godwin Obaseki and his tax-collectors party. When an incumbent has nothing to show for his time in office for four years except ineffectual MOUs and name-calling, it is a no-brainer that he will be rejected at the polls.
“Our mandate is to continue to acquaint the people of the state with the SIMPLE agenda and the realistic plans of Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu to move Edo State forward by providing real jobs, true leadership, and a secured state to put an end to killings and kidnappings and attract investments.”
