…….. hold crusade in Edo Central next week
The convener of the OBIDIENTS for Ai Crusade, Fred Atiomo, has said that the state- wide crusade which is aimed at ensuring a one hundred and fifty thousand ( 150,000) votes for Asue Ighodalo, in the coming Edo governorship election will hold next week in Edo Central adding that it was a Clarion call for all Edo People to be unanimous in their resolve for the salvation of Edo state through the ballot in the coming Edo governorship election.
He made the call recently in Benin City, the Edo State Capital while addressing a crowd of OBIDIENTS crusade supporters for Asue Ighodalo in the coming Edo governorship election.
According to him, “in the annals of Edo state’s tumultuous political landscape, a groundswell of fervent support has erupted, heralding the emergence of a formidable, competent and credible contender for the gubernatorial seat – Barr. Asue Ighodalo. This clarion call, spearheaded by the ardent OBIDIENTS for Asue Ighodalo represents an unprecedented moment in the state’s history, a convergence of civic duty and unflagging conviction.
“The OBIDIENTS for Ai, a formidable grassroots coalition of concerned citizens, have taken up the mantle of championing Asue Ighodalo’s candidacy with an unprecedented zeal. This crusade championed in Edo South by distinguished personalities such as Osariemen Uwaifo Coordinator (Oredo), Blessings Agho ( State Coordinator) and Citizen Victor Ekuase ( Senatorial Coordinator) which is rooted in the principles of good governance, transparency, and unwavering integrity, also has coordinators in Edo Central and Edo North and it is galvanizing the masses, which transcends party lines and ideological divides. The clarion call echoing throughout Edo’s towns and villages is a testament to the people’s yearning for transformative leadership – a leader who will steer the state away from the morass of corruption and mismanagement that has plagued it for far too long.
According to Fred Atiomo, he said Barr. Asue Ighodalo, is a legal luminary, an investment banker and respected public servant who stands as the embodiment of the OBIDIENTS’ ardent aspirations. His impeccable track record, coupled with his visionary agenda for Edo’s resurgence, has captured the imagination of the electorate. From his unalloyed commitment to infrastructure development and job creation to his resolute stance against graft and malfeasance, Ighodalo’s candidacy represents a resurgence of hope in a political landscape often marred by cynicism and disillusionment.
The OBIDIENTS’ for Ai crusade, according to him, is more than a mere political campaign; it is a clarion call to all Edo residents to rise up and reclaim their rightful place as the architects of their own destiny adding that the movement transcends party affiliations but uniting citizens under the banner of a shared vision for a prosperous, equitable, and just Edo state.
“As the drums of the OBIDIENTS for Ai crusade reverberate across the wards and Units of the state, the call for Barr. Asue Ighodalo’s ascension to the governorship becomes a rallying call for all who seek to restore the state’s lost glory. The time has come for the people of Edo to heed this call, to harness their collective power, and to usher in a new era of transformative leadership that will propel the state towards a future of unparalleled progress and prosperity”, he concluded
