Ahead
the gubernatorial elections in Edo State this weekend, Governor Adams
Oshiomhole has said due to the track record of the All Progressives
Congress ( APC) in the state, its going to be a smooth victory for his
party.
Speaking to State House Correspondents
on Monday at the Presidential Villa, Oshiomhole stated that Edo people
had never had it so good like under the eight year reign of the APC.
He said, “For us it is fun, when you
have a good report card, you are anxious to go and show to your parents
that you did well in school so that you can ask for support to go to
secondary school. It is when you fail that you cry and find a way to
make excuses.
“We have worked for Edo people and there
is no ward of the 192 wards that you will not find standard government
project, whether it is road, school, health centre, water and these are
things they have never seen for 10 years of PDP.
The governor asserted that his
administration has rebuilt schools and Edo teachers are paid as at when
due and the teachers are properly motivated, that only qualified
teachers are in the classrooms adding that from the situation where Edo
used to be 23rd in WAEC and NECO but last year the state came 2nd.
“With all these, there is no way the
people will vote for a party that had been given them excuses. I have no
doubt whatsoever that anytime, anyday, a fair minded Edo man will vote
APC, He added.
On fears that certain governors are
ready to forment trouble during the election, he accused the River state
governor ,Wyesome Wike and his Delta counterpart, Ifeanyi Okowa of
importing militants to Edo to destabilise the elections.
