Benin City, the capital of Edo State, was alight with fervor over the weekend as Comrade Adams Oshiomhole spearheaded a vibrant street-to-street campaign.
This formidable rally, organized to garner support for the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate, Sen. Monday Okpebholo, and his running mate, Rt. Hon. Dennis Idahosa, was a significant event ahead of the upcoming September 21 election.
The streets were thronged with party supporters who chanted slogans and waved banners, creating a palpable atmosphere of hope and unity.
Okpebholo and Idahosa, who are endearingly referred to as Akpakomiza and Denco, respectively, have struck a chord with the people of Edo State through their promises of development and transparent governance.
The campaign’s mantra, “less talk, more action,” reflects a commitment to moving beyond rhetoric and delivering tangible results. This slogan resonated well with the crowd, signaling a desire for pragmatic leadership and concrete achievements.
Oshiomhole’s involvement added considerable weight to the campaign. As a seasoned figure in Edo politics, his endorsement of Okpebholo and Idahosa is viewed as a strong validation of their leadership qualities and vision.
His dynamic speeches invigorated the crowd, emphasizing that with the right leadership, Edo State could experience unprecedented growth and development.
This street-to-street campaign has not only demonstrated the solidarity within the APC but also highlighted the widespread support for Okpebholo and Idahosa.
As the election day approaches, the enthusiasm witnessed over the weekend underscores a hopeful and united front, ready to embrace a new era of progress for Edo State.
