Following a declaration by People’s Democratic Party, PDP Governors to win the Edo State September election, Governor Adams Oshiomhole, has rebuked the governors saying they should be allowed to wallow in their dreams.He mocked that while the PDP governors’ states’ are yet to pay workers’ salaries, they want to win an election.
Oshiomhole, while saying that he will defeat Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta State if both of them contest any election, added that his pedigree and examples shown to the workers in the state who have received their salaries regularly will chase the PDP governors away.
He said: “I will defeat Okowa in Delta State. My pedigree speaks for me. My power is not money but my oratory and pedigree.”
“Those who cannot pay salaries want to come and take Edo. We pay salaries before the end of the month. The workers are already kicking against them. We will not allow them take Edo back to Egypt.”
