The governor of Edo State, Monday Okpebholo has vowed to expose former governor of the state, Godwin Obaseki and the Peoples Democratic Party.

Okpebholo through his Chief Press Secretary, Fred Itua alleged that the rot and fraud perpetrated by the PDP and Obaseki in the state caused damages and would soon be exposed.

A statement issued by Itua read “The factional chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party in Edo State is yet to accept the clear reality that it has assumed the arduous role of an opposition party. 

“The depleted and disorganised party ought to be apologising to Edo people for mismanaging their resources, denigrating revered traditional institutions, and allocating the commonwealth to a few insatiable criminals. 

“His Excellency, Senator Monday Okpebholo, the Elected and Executive Governor of Edo State, is in a hurry to develop Edo State. Since his inauguration a fortnight ago, he has remained undaunted, living up to the people’s expectations. 

“Barely one week in office, he addressed and solved what the Godwin Obaseki-led administration could not confront in eight years. He has banned activities of touts across various markets in Edo State, hired by the Obaseki-led administration. 

“Governor Okpebholo has confronted and solved the hydra-headed cult clashes in Benin City and has stopped illegal revenue collections as well.

“He has flagged off the first flyover bridge in Edo State and is addressing key and challenging problems deliberately packaged by the Obaseki administration. 

“The PDP and Obaseki are worried that the public will be dazed when details of the atrocities he supervised as governor are unearthed. 

“Today, it is on record that the Obaseki-led heinous administration dubiously dolled out almost 500 Government-owned vehicles to his cronies and allies.

“The PDP-led heist in Edo State will be exposed. Governor Okpebholo-led administration will expose the atrocities of Obaseki and the factional PDP. No amount of blackmail will stop the Okpebholo-led administration from recovering the commonwealth of the people from a few dubious men.”

GistReel reports that the Edo State Chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) on Tuesday accused Governor Monday Okpebholo of contravening laws of the land in his actions so far in the last 14 days accusing him of sending thugs in the name of recovery of government vehicles to invade the private residence of the former governor of the state, Godwin Obaseki.

The party also accused the governor and the All Progressives Congress (APC) of sending thugs to invade its state secretariat allegedly to steal and destroy court papers in respect of the recent governorship election in the state.
