I’ll Continue From Where Obaseki Has Stopped If I’m Elected Governor – Asue Ighodalo

The candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party for the September 21 governorship election in Edo State, Asue Ighodalo has come out to say that his government will continue the infrastructural drive of the Godwin Obaseki administration.

He recently had his say at the flag-off of the PDP statewide governorship campaign in Ubiaja, Esan South East Local Government Area of the state, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, he is ready to continue from where Governor Obaseki stops because he is committed to taking Edo State to the next level as quickly as he can.

Ighodalo added that Edo has been the number one in oil palm since Obaseki came to power, and that will continue with him in charge.

His words, “We are ready to continue where our governor stopped. We will take Edo State to the next level. If a man wants to build a house, he has to start from the foundation. Governor Obaseki has started the foundation and we will continue from where he stopped. The work that has been done for the past eight years will soon begin to show.

By the next one year, we will begin to miss the governor, but Ogie and I will do our best to maintain his good works. We all know the suffering on the ground and the problem in Nigeria.

They said something in Abuja in January, and our lives have gone down since then but the governor has been trying to shield us from the harsh conditions created by the APC and that is what Ogie and I will continue

Before you can leave your house by 2 am, but it became impossible due to insecurity until when Obaseki came and stopped it. Now you can go out and do your business, but that is what we will continue to improve on in Edo State.

The work that he has done in agriculture, we will continue from there; we will give incentives to cassava farmers, oil palm producers. Edo has been the number one in oil palm since Obaseki came to power.”
