“I want to appeal to you to reject Godwin Obaseki in this coming election. I have suffered from many others to bring about this democratic regime, that today, we are enjoying in the country.

“Then, Godwin Obaseki didn’t participate in any aspect of the struggle to enshrine democracy in the country. Therefore, he could not understand the value and the pains associated with this democracy in the country,” stated Tinubu.

However, Atiku Abubakar urged the people of Edo to vote wisely and defend their votes. He further appealed with them to support governor Obaseki’s re-election in the forthcoming election.
