Speaking at the event, Obaseki who inaugurated the campaign council team urged the them to brace up for the electioneering which he said is going to be scientific.

According to him, “the 2023 presidential election is going to be scientific as polling results would be uploaded from the polling units up  to the
Collation centres”

“Election results of the 2023 presidential election is not going to be determined by the day of the election but by what we will do, by the amount of efforts we will put towards it before the day of the election. “

Going further, he added, “this election has become an existential one which should be sacrificial on our path so that we can extricate the nation from the brink of collapse with the national indebtedness rising to 60 trillion Naira”

“the country will disintegrate should the APC win the forthcoming general elections, God forbid. “

Governor Obaseki advised the candidates to be proactive and brace up for the contest as, according to him, they are the major risk bearers in the battle.

He said that the PDP will win the election with a wide margin, adding that the party has so much to campaign with, citing the Egbokor  Independent Modular Refinery which he said he just went to inspect and has fully gone into production of domestic gas, kerosene and other petroleum products.

On his part, the Director of the Edo State Campaign Council, Chief Osaro Idah,  said all hands would be on deck to wrestle the country from total collapse.

According to him, “the hardship in the land is becoming unbearable with the exchange of the naira going on the upward glide as high as Seven Hundred and Forty Naira per dollar.

“We are going to go after our aggrieved members with a view to unfolding our manifestos and bringing them back to the party so that together we can vote the All Progressives Congress out of power.”
