Edo State Governor Adams Oshiomhole has urged Nigerians to reject the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) at all levels in the 2015 general elections.

The governor noted that as long as the party remained in power, Nigerians would remain in darkness.

Oshiomhole spoke yesterday when he received over 2,000 defectors from Oredo and Egor local government areas, led by Mr. Festus Osaretin Oviawe and Igbe Kingsley.

The governor said the choice before the people in the next elections is to choose between darkness and change.

He said: “In 16 years, Edo State has gained nothing from the PDP besides the resurfacing of the Ofosu-Benin road and the attempt at the dualisation of the Okene-Benin road, with all its imperfections. They were forced to embark on it after we cried out that how could they dualise the road from Abuja and stop abruptly in Okene without extending it to Edo?

“In 16 years, after spending over $25 billion, we still have no light. Now, they have shared the electricity company to their friends and associates. “As long as they remain in power, Nigerians will remain in darkness. Our companies will remain shut and the economy will be subjected to the vagaries of instability of the international oil market.”

Accusing President Goodluck Jonathan of abandoning Edo, Oshiomhole said: “He (Jonathan) got 95 per cent votes from Edo. What has he done in Edo? What has he done in Benin City? The Queen Edo erosion was caused by the Federal Government. I have written several letters to them to come and fix the mess. Yet, they ignored us and gave money to Delta and Kogi states.

“See the newly refurbished airport in Benin. I was there and the roof was leaking during the rain. Is that the kind of government we still want in Nigeria? No way!

“For too long across Nigeria, the PDP has buffeted us with untruth, lies, deceit, empty promises, at the political level and the economic front. They have run short of lies and they have run short of excuses.

“It is not possible for a he-goat to live long to become a sheep; it can’t also become a ram. A he-goat will always be a he-goat. The PDP can never change. I think you all will also agree that they are aware that they need to change. But the more they try to change, the more they remain the same.

“You know before my election in 2012, I remember they were shouting: ‘This is new PDP!’ I was saying what is new? The head is the same old PDP and it has become even older now, almost approaching a hundred. So, the head has not changed and so the body couldn’t have changed. But they know they have nothing to change. We will sweep the PDP away from Abuja.”

25billion dollars spent by PDP on power sector, yet on light; may be till they spend 1trillion dollars.
The choice is ours:
DARKNESS OR CHANGE, INSECURITY OR CHANGE, ASSU STRIKE OR CHANGE, MISSING MONEY OR CHANGE, IMPUNITY OR CHANGE, UNSECURED ECONOMY OR CHANGE, STEALING IS NOT CORRUPTION, STOLEN MONEY FUNDING ELECTIONS OR CHANGE.

Talk is cheap. What has Oshiomhole done in his second term apart from throwing parties and encouraging his thugs "kabaka" and his "WAI\Oshiohomole police" to be harassing people in Edo state. The state is run by several cult group who brazenly fight themselves in Government House with the police and SSS looking helpless. Airport road is the most expensive road in the world, a road less than 15kilometers took him 8 years to finish and gulped more than 20billion naira, Central Hospital is a glorified poultry house built with wood, there are no roads in GRA and other major parts of Benin city, a state where despite his noise there are still schools built with mud e.g. Ogbe primary n Secondary school, its just off airport road, by st. Paul's Minor seminary and many more like that, the storm water project is pure scam, exorbitant tax regime\multiple taxation that has killed small businesses, just to mention a few. Oshiomhole should go and take care of his addiction to cocaine and his penchant for chasing underage girls b4 criticizing anybody. Bloody certificate forger. Hypocrite.
