VP, Shettima Joins In Final Rally Ahead Of Edo Poll
Edo State currently needs a strategic thinker, a builder, and a man of the people who can mobilize the people of the state, according to the vice president.
He joined other prominent party members at the All APC’s grand finale of the gubernatorial campaign held at the Sports Complex of the University of Benin on Saturday.
“Our expectations are the same whether you work as a trader or a civil servant, are Esan or Afemai, are a Christian or a Muslim, young or old, male or female.”
We all want the same thing: an Edo State that works and can provide each and every one of you the chance to prosper.
Senator Shettima addressed the sizable gathering at the campaign ground, saying, “What unites us most is not our differences but our collective desire for a nation that works, a state that meets our needs.”
The Vice President urged the people of Edo to cast a large number of ballots for the APC in order to take advantage of the recent improvement in the distribution of funds to all levels of government.
“I promise that this is Nigeria’s finest time to be a governor. Even though they were difficult, the economic reforms of the last year have prepared the way for greater prospects in the future.
The Vice President gave the people of Edo confidence, saying, “Your incoming government has more resources to bankroll programs and projects that benefit you with increased allocations to the states.”
Shettima stated that Senator Okpebholo, the APC’s nominee in the September 21 Edo governorship poll, is the best qualified person to take over as state leader.
He went on, “Strategic thinker, builder, man of the people, man who can rally the great people of Edo State are what Edo State needs.”
Edo State needs a leader who will lead with the fear of God, open his doors to the people, and listen to their pleas.
