Edo has promised Asiwaju 3.5million votes, we are not joking - Edo Governor

Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo State has vowed to quit if President Bola Tinubu fails to win the 2027 general elections.

Okpebholo made this promise on Friday during an interview with African Independent Television (AIT).

He listed the state’s development projects and stated that Edo people will vote for Tinubu in 2027.

“Edo people have not even thanked Tinubu. How they will thank him is through their votes.

“The various projects across the state are the things that will speak for Tinubu and he will win here. Bet me, if he doesn’t win, I will resign as governor.

“There’s no election here for him. I’m a politician, who under-studied Chief Aneni. My style of politics is not thuggery but grassroots,” he said.

Assuming Tinubu loses in 2027, his reaction to this declaration will be that he was misquoted.
Believe these politicians at your will.

Story
The last thing the F9 governor will do is to resign
He has already perfected his rigging machinery ahead of 2027.

When it comes to rigging,
it is never confusing okpebolo. Na only im duty dey confusing okpebolo. Isnt that wonderfully terrific?

Does a sitting governor have any special power/privileges that can help conclude elections even before they are conducted? Tinubu has scratched their backs, so they muat scratch his.

Edo is officially gone

The same Edo state used to be the headquarters of the Obidients, but so many things changed since 2023 election.

If you like, don't lay a good bed for your own self in future, na still same you go sleep on your roforofo bed

Even those of us who don’t support Peter Obi can admit the man seems decent and carries a fair amount of nationwide appeal. He’s diplomatic, as politicians are professionally trained to be, and has made visible efforts to broaden his reach, including appearing at Islamic events despite being a devoted Catholic Christian.

However, just when you start nodding in approval, you remember the toxicity of his online battalion. Then you imagine them potentially hovering around presidential decision-making like unofficial advisers.

Add in the old performance debates from Anambra, and while he may be busy refining his national image, his supporters are out here doing the opposite, loudly.

Gone via rigging. Edo people is differwnt from Okpebolo thats why okpebolo had to be rigged in via the judiciary and the the margin of rigging increased once more by the governor himself in an act of reciprocity.
Can APC win Edo fairly in 100 years? Never.

Make sensible comments or I will block you.

I don't have time for you people's years of boring arguments

Using useless projects to justify the impending rigging. Incomplete flyovers or the road un Edo today, who tarred them? Same roads last governor did is what will make Edo people return a failure who hijacked ppwer via Judiciary. Yeye.

This guy is annoying when ever he speaks

Very senseless of you to call alternative view not sensible comment.
Is your beloved APC not a rigging juggernaut.

Abeg block quick oooo. Your propaganda can never sway me.

Please tell your Tinubu to rehabilitate the major roads connecting Edo to Delta State; it's a critical piece of infrastructure. Whether you choose to resign or not is entirely your business.

When tinubu lose in 2027 all these governors go piss for trouser especially the unpopular ones like this Edo clown.

Bro, it's going to be hands down winning as those projects are sited across the Nigeria regions. No one can claim of not seeing them

The question I expect that TVC journalist to ask the governor is this:

How do you expect to give 3.5M votes to APC in 2027 when the total votes that brought you in as governor is less than 300K and total number of registered voters according to INEC is less than 2.5 million.

Richtaiwo:
Peter Obi is widely seen, even by those who don’t support him, as a decent man with national appeal and a diplomatic approach typical of politicians. He has made visible efforts to broaden his reach, including attending Islamic events despite being a Catholic Christian.

However, concerns arise from the conduct and perceived toxicity of his supporters, which creates doubt about the kind of influence they might wield if he were president. Given past criticisms of his leadership in Anambra, while he may be trying to reshape his image, the nature of his followers remains a major source of hesitation.

Vote Tinubu
His supporters haven't done anything bad

It's like you have seen the hand writing on the wall because that's certainly what's gonna happen.

You think this is AMAC election you people won by rigging that is shacking your head.

This is funny. Ur allegiance and loyalty shud be to d people of Edo state and to Nigeria
We have missed it

Tulumbu is not on the ballot in 2027. God didn't reveal this to all our prophets in Nigeria.
Wike will contest for presidency in 2027 under PDP.

Politicians plan and speculates but God's plan is different.

mrvitalis:
Vote Tinubu

Of course I will and indeed, this is apparent in my comment you just quoted.

This governor has lost his sense to sycophancy. Which Edo? Definitely, not the one I know. Talking of projects, I hope they will start reconstructing the Benin/Sapele express road cos the last time I passed, the Edo government billboard telling citizens to bear with them, that it’s a federal road, was still hanging near the bypass overhead bridge.

MUMU MAN! he will still come out to debunk this....believe these evil politicians at your own peril

I don give up on Nigeria since recently when it seems nothing we do matters to these politicians unless we are billion dollar relevant

lol. It is very clear that this governor get small short-circuit for brain. How can a president be more popular than a state governor IN HIS OWN STATE o. This just show how “incompetent “ he is. Nothing you wan tell me again

This is what Nigeria politics as being reduce to, We keep going lower

In 26yrs of Democracy we the Governor are now the one guaranteeing President re election

Let kuku withdraw Nigerians from voting and let the governors be the ones to vote since there vote is what count

No need wasting funds to campaign to people .. all the governors have guarantee Tinubu will be re elected.

democracy is now govt of the governor, by the governors for the governors.

Reminds of Obi that promised that under no circumstances that’ll make him leave APGA

Richtaiwo:

You don't need to come here to justify your guilty conscience

Vote Tinubu, I'm relaxed because the effect of his government affects all of us equally

Okpebholo!

Which kain wahala be this?

Mr capacity , most of our pity people don’t just like this man because he’s not on pity obi side ! He’s a man of capacity ! I can authoritatively tell you that edo is finally in Good hands.
