The Labour Party presidential candidate in the 2023 election, Peter Obi, on Wednesday, tasked security agencies and the Independent National Electoral Commission to adhere to the rules to ensure free, fair and credible poll in the Edo State governorship election.

He gave the charge on the grand finale rally for the party’s governorship candidate in the state, Olumide Akpata, in Benin City, the state capital.

Obi said the people of the state would resist any attempts by any political parties to rig the election, saying, “Nigerians are suffering today because of the wrong choice of leadership they have made,” adding that the “correction must start from Edo State by voting in the governorship candidate of the Labour Party come September 21.

“I urge the security agencies and the Independent National Electoral Commission to adhere to the rules to ensure a free, fair and credible poll in the Edo State governorship election.

“If Akpata wins the election, he will fix the federal roads that are connected to the state without waiting for the Federal Government to fix them.”

He blamed state governors who usually shift responsibilities to the FG to the detriment of the citizens of the states, as he assured that the LP candidate wouldn’t do such.

Obi called on the people to come out to vote Akpata and his running mate, Kadiri Asamah.

Also speaking, Obi’s running mate in the 2023 presidential election, Yusuf Danti, called on the party’s faithful in the state to utilise their numerical strength to enthrone their choice of candidate come September 21.

He further urged them not to be intimidated but to be ready to vote and defend their votes because power belongs to the people.
