National Vice Chairman South South Zone of the
All Progressives Congress, APC, Ntufam Hilliard Eta has begged residents of the
South South States to tow the line of the Edo electorate by rejecting the
People's Democratic Party, PDP as a prelude to a stable and progressive polity.
Eta, who was speaking recently
after the Appeal Court verdict which affirmed the Tribunal's upholding Mr. Godwin
Obaseki’s victory at last year's gubernatorial election in Edo said the verdict
affirmed that the Edo people, actually rejected the PDP at the polls.
This statement was made available by his media aid Bassey Ita on his facebook wall, Saturday
evening.
According to the Press Statement, Mr. Eta believes “the
people of Edo are experiencing a stable and progress oriented polity as a
result of the decision to accept the change mantra into their state. He said,
by that singular act the people enacted a new order in their state adding that
the continuity of the APC in the state has proven a rewarding experience for
the mass of Edo people.”
Mr. Etta went ahead to plead with other states in the south
south still under PDP’s control to
emulate Edo state and vote out PDP in the coming Elections.
The statement reads in part
“He urged the electorate in other South South states still
controlled by the PDP to make a detour to the APC saying that their future as a
people and as an entity is no longer guaranteed under the watch of the PDP.
According to the South South Zonal Chairman, the people of
Edo are experiencing a stable and progress oriented polity as a result of the
decision to accept the change mantra into their state. He said, by that
singular act the people enacted a new order in their state adding that the
continuity of the APC in the state has proven a rewarding experience for the
mass of Edo people.
Eta hailed the Appeal
Court Judgement and described it as perfection and endorsement of the truth
over deceit which he said had pissed off the Edo people at the instance of the
PDP rulership of the state.
He also used the opportunity to congratulate Governor Obaseki
for the victory which he said should be dedicated to the common people of Edo
who faced excruciating conditions under the PDP regime.”
