The governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, issued a warning on Saturday, saying that the state’s governorship race is a “do-or-die affair” the next week.
Obaseki threatened to kill anyone caught using any kind of electoral fraud by the opposition party.
He made his remarks at a Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rally in the state’s Ekemwan region.
“The person I took over from had no respect for our people, had no respect for women, encouraged prostitution and women trafficking.
“When I took over office our pensioners wore black on Labour Day but today they wear white.
“When I took office, our youths had no jobs, but today don’t they have jobs? After eight years is Edo not one of the safest in Nigeria?
“This election is a do or die, if they do, we will die. Next week Saturday by this time, vote for PDP to become the next governor.”
The people of Edo State will cast their ballots for the state’s next governor on Saturday, September 21.
The front-runners in the race for governor are Asue Ighodalo of the PDP, Monday Okpebholo of the All Progressives Congress (APC), and Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party (LP).
