Edo 2024: Elections are not war – Obi

Elections are not war, Obi declares, expressing disapproval of the desperation of other political parties for power towards the Saturday, September 21 governorship election in Edo State.

Obi asserted that elections are “opportunities to present authentic leadership and drive meaningful development.”

Obi decried, what he considered troubling comments after the campaigns.

According to him “One party admits to having packaged fake leaders in the past—who knows what they offer now, perhaps expired ones—while another insists it is a do-or-die affair.”
