2019: Nigerians elect new governors

The All Progressives Congress (APC) has been accused of plotting to financially induce voters and manipulate the outcome of the Edo State Governorship election.

The allegation was levelled by Olusegun Bamgbose, the National Coordinator, Concerned Advocates for Good Governance (CAGG).

He told Daily Post that the APC will equally showcase their federal might, calling on Edo people to rise up to the occasion by resisting any form of impunity.

“APC has perfected plans to manipulate the election, but they will surely fail. All eyes will be on the election tomorrow,” Bamgbose said.

“Edo voters should be vigilant, and ensure that their votes count come what may. Oshiomhole, who has been slammed with US visa ban should be watched closely.

“The US has tagged him as someone who is undermining democracy. The US is closely watching to ensure the election is free, fair and peaceful.

“Edo voters should not allow Tinubu’s political empire to be extended to Edo State. If that happens, it will be double jeopardy.

“Edo people would then have to contend with two godfathers. The State Treasury will suffer for it.

“Edo voters must totally reject APC today, if truly they want to experience growth and development. I foresee APC crashing out. No amount of rigging will help the situation.”
