Obidients In Edo Officially Declares Support For Olumide Akpata As Edo Governor by btvnigeria(m): 2:57pm On Mar 25
OBIDIENTS IN EDO STATE OFFICIALLY DECLARES SUPPORT FOR OLUMIDE AKPATA AS EDO GOVERNOR AHEAD OF ELECTIONS

...LABOUR PARTY HAS OUR VOTE OF CONFIDENCE BECAUSE WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN A FORCE IN EDO STATE

Abubakar Usman Momoh Reporting live...


It has come to our notice that over the weekend a press briefing was made by a fake and impersonating alleged group discovered to be working for the all progressive congress APC candidate in Edo state.



In their said briefing they stated that the labour party in Edo state organized an unaccepted primary elections which was a lie from the pit of hell.



That same primary elections that was recorded as the most peaceful and well organised event can't be discarded by any person because a particular aspirant did not come out tops.



The world saw that same primary election as the best ever Edo state primary election organized in the history of state governorship election. It was peaceful and rancorously free. Every aspirant organised themselves perfectly and the event was even televised with a live broadcast on more than three (3) international television stations across Nigeria and the world.



Our question to those who are parading the streets with the fake news that the election was characterised with monetisation which did not happen is that why did they not address the press immediately after the elections so the world would know what happened at the event. They must have collected money from the APC to do these dastardly act to discredit the image of the labour party and its governorship candidate.



It was even said that even the EFCC, DSS and the Police were witnesses to the successful hosting of the elections respectively.



It is only in Nigeria that the right thing will be done and afterwards you will see people who are shameless come up with lies to discredit the values that comes with such outings.


These particular group calling themselves the Edo Obidients are fake, criminals and liars as far as we are concerned because the true Obidients in Edo state will never address the media and pass a vote of no confidence on the labour party or our great candidate Barrister Olumide Akpata who is already seen as the next governor of Edo state.



If its not that the APC is afraid of the LP Olumide Akpata's political gate why would they be doing all these and more.



The APC is paying up young hungry persons in edo to disguise as members of the Edo Obidient group to endorse their governorship candidate ahead of the elections and that will not work because that action is fake and criminal in nature.



The real members of the Obidient Movement Worldwide held a media briefing in Benin city at Orupkota hall Monday 25th and addressed the press, asking the people of Edo state to disregard the statement rolling in the news that the Edo Obidient group has disassociated themselves from the labour party, discredit the candidacy of the next governor of Edo state Barrister Olumide Akpata and pass a vote of no confidence on the Edo labour party, Edo people please this is not true.


We are the real Obidient members and we are using this opportunity to tell the world that we attended the labour party Edo state governorship election held in Benin city and as witness, we state here in that the election was well organised and that the winner was Barrister Olumide Akpata and the national chairman barrister Julius Abure, the national working committee of the party and all other aspirants in that same election have already congratulated him as winner so we don't know where these fake news is coming from at this time when parties are supposed to be rolling out ideas on how to startegise to win elections.



We also ask the APC and the PDP to stay clear from the activities of the labour party in Edo state because it will be a criminal conspiracy to attempt any disturbance as the labour party will soon kick start its campaign to ask for votes from the Edo people which they already have as waiting votes from the people.



Edo state people must understand that it is time to stand up strongly and vote for a man and a party that has the capacity and credibility to move the state forward.



The press was addressed by the director of political affairs Dr Barry Avotu Johnson 1st on behalf of all obidients worldwide.



In his speech he went ahead to state that the labour party has come to stay in Edo state and there is nothing anybody can do to stop the will of the Edo people from coming to pass.



The Edo people have already spoken and the voice of the people remains the voice of God Almighty.



Barrister Akpata is loved by the Edo people because he decided to run for the seat of the Edo governor using a credible platform like the labour party and on this note it is very clear that the people will speak on election day and nothing can stop them.



The people of Edo state must know that any attempt to rig the Edo state governorship election by the APC or PDP will not work; coming with the clue of the 2023 Presidential election said to be rigged by inec, judiciary, police and the APC will put Edo state on the map of unrest because the last election to have been rigged in Nigeria will remain the 2023 Presidential election that was won by Peter Obi who is addressed as the peoples President today.



We the Obidients and the Edo people must resist any planned rigging and must stand up against every election and political criminalities in this election.



The future of Edo state lays in the results of the elections because if the people don't come out to vote for Olumude Akpata of the labour party the state will remain in the hands of these political crooks that have plundered Edo over the years.



Dr Barry Avotu Johnson 1st reminded the media and the people of Edo state that; we are the people who voted for Peter Obi and the labour party in 2023 in Edo state and we are saying we are still here to repeat the same fate again by coming out to vote for our own Barrister Olumide Akpata and the labour party to take over Edo for the good of our people and democracy.



The labour party and Barrister Olumide Akpata will get our votes, so we call on all our youths, women, aged persons and professionals across the state to get ready for the biggest showdown campaign ever in history.



The campaign will start very soon and what you must do as Obidients and great Edo state people is to mobilize yourselves from the north, south and central of the state to be together as a family on the streets to ask the people to join us to vote for Labour party so we can win with a landslide; where going to court to challenge our victory would be too disgracing for them at the end.



We call on all Obidients and the great people of Edo state to note that we the Obidients are hereby telling the world that we have total respect and confidence on the leadership of the labour party in the national and Edo state, we officially endorsed the Edo state governorship primary elections and also join hands with the party to present and vote for Barrister Olumide Akpata as our 2024 governor.



Infact, see this media conference as the event where we, the real and true Obidients have passed a vote of confidence on the Edo and national labour party for conducting a peaceful, freest, fairest, most credibly and accepted primary election in the Edo state political history without any rancour.



This is our official endorsement and we ask the world to join us as we get ready for the biggest campaign of all times.



Dr Barry Avotu Johnson ended his media address by calling in all security authorities in Edo state to brace up to protection of the people before, during and after the campaign proper so that all party members can come out peacefully to campaign for their best preferred choice candidates.



Dr Barry Avotu Johnson 1st also doubles as the Country Director for the 'Votes Must Count International Initiative' VMCII, one of the forefront civil society organisations that declared the 2023 Presidential election in Nigeria rigged by inec in collaborations with the security agencies and the APC respectively without fear or favour.



The Obidient Movement Worldwide remains the Nigeria's newest political movement opposition and their votes remains via the ballot paper on the name and logo of the labour party as far as Peter Gregory Obi remains in the labour party.



So therefore, Barrister Olumide Akpata will surely enjoy the same vote support that Peter Obi received in the 2023 Presidential elections.



Barrister Akpata remains the only choice of the Obidient Movement Worldwide in Edo state in respective of whatever media briefing hosted by any fake and impersonating elements of disunity.

According to our findings on the streets of EDO.

EDO LP members want the 'Olumide' to go to Osun.. ONDO....OYO.. OGUN.. to contest.

Olumide is not an EDO name.
