Mogul and Peoples Democratic Party, PDP National chairmanship aspirant, Chief
Raymond Dokpesi has flayed the postponement of the Edo State governorship
election saying it would not save the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC
from imminent defeat.
Noting that
the postponement of the election was orchestrated to truncate the desire of the
people, the PDP chieftain in a statement made available to Saturday Vanguard,
nevertheless, called on voters in the state to keep faith with the PDP
candidate, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu who he said was the hope for a better
government.
In the statement issued on his behalf by his spokesman, Omor
Bazuaye, Dokpesi described it as a shame that Nigerians were being subjected to
a kind of impunity and abuse of power as was demonstrated when the election
originally fixed for today was postponed.
The statement noted that Dokpesi
received information about the postponement just as he led a last minute
campaign for candidate of PDP, Pastor Osagie Ize Iyamu in Etsako East; taking
the campaign and the message of a better future from his own ward 1 deep into
zone 4.
Dokpesi said what INEC had done was to postpone PDP’s victory at the
polls and delay the inevitable defeat of the ruling All Progressives Congress
{APC} in the state.
He said no matter how many times and how long INEC
postpones the election, the people in his Etsako East have rejected APC and
have made up their minds to vote PDP. Dokpesi visited Oshiolo village where he
met with the village head, Chief Agaye Izobor. The campaign trail then journeyed
to Ekwotsor where it was received by a large crowd of party supporters before
moving on to other neighbouring villages like Agier.
