Edo NRM Guber Candidate Decamps To APC With Over 5,000 People by Akpakomiza2: 8:38am On Aug 23
The Edo State governorship candidate of the National Rescue Movement (NRM) for the forthcoming election in the state, Dr Dennis Osahon Aikoriogie, yesterday, defected with over 5000 of his supporters to the All Progressives Congress (APC), saying it is time to redeem the state.

Addressing journalists during his defection at the APC rally at the Textile Mill road in Benin, he said he was moving from his party, NRM to the APC because of the personality of the candidate of the APC, Senator Monday Okpebholo, whose developmental track records speak volume even just as a senator representing Edo Central Senatorial District.

Dr. Aikorogie said if Senator Monday Okpebholo could perform wonderfully well in his senatorial district as a senator, he believes that he has the capacity to turn the fortune of the state around if voted as the governor of the state.

“I am here today to lend my support for the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Senator Monday Okpebholo and his deputy, Dennis Idahosa.

“I am coming with my teeming supporters, my members and my party faithful to come and lend our support for the candidacy of Monday Okpebholo because we believe in his person because he is reliable and he is a doer. This time around, we need people who do things and not people who talk and no action.

“Senator Monday Okpebholo has been relating with the people, you can see and even from his senatorial district, even before he became a senator.

“You know he has been relating with his people. Someone like him as governor who has sympathy for the people and not people who came all the way from the blues and want to govern the state without any track records of human relationship or corporate social responsibility for the people”, Aikorogie said.

Aikorogie who said he is moving with over 5000 of his followers to the APC, admonished the people of the state not to be deterred by what is happening at the federal government level but should trust in the ability of Senator Okpebholo.

“My advice is for the people to join hands and vote in the APC despite what is happening at the federal government level. we believe that with the new administration of Okpebholo, Edo State will be different.

“We are going to experience economic development, youths employment, infrastructure development and a lot more. We must redeem Edo State from corporate brigandage”,
Aikorogie added.

While expressing confidence in the party’s winning the forthcoming governorship election, he said it is time for the party to sack the PDP government from the state.

Format...become a gubernatorial candidate, gather your own followers (sometimes the "followers" are borrowed from a bigger party), make small noise. then "negotiate" with the bigger party and decamp, all for the optics.😂😂😂😂

No, he decamped with over one million supporters. Someone that cannot even win his polling unit is who you are whining about. Wake up, AI is the next Edo governor.

I hope this won't be a repeat of what happened in 2020? APC had the media same way in 2020 but when the results came out it wasn't what we were reading on net, the then APC candidate even lost his own Local Government to PDP.
I hope all this media frenzy will translate to concrete votes for them.

Nigeria is a very funny country.

Everyone hates APC online but election time you see people decamping there.

Even when there is a rally, you see thousands supporting same party.

I just don't get it.

They received more in 2020 but the results wasn't palatable for them after the election, even the APC candidate then lost his own local government woefully.
The media attention may not win election, I pray it translate to real vote for them and not the usual APC media noise.

Nobody should vote for APC candidate in Edo. All anti - people policies must be reversed. This should be the message to the presidency. I trust Edo people will do the needful

As of today, Okpebholo has won both the northern and central districts of Edo state. He only needs to put in some more work in edo south and that's all.
