State Publicity Secretary of the party, Comrade Godwin Erhahon said leaders of the APC in the state should therefore work hard if they truly desire to come out victorious in the governorship election.
This comes on the heels of a call by the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, leadership at a rally in Auchi that the President should allow level playing field for all parties in the election.
He said those ignorantly hoping that incumbency factor at federal level would see them through will be disappointed at the end.
His words, “As one who has been with President Buhari since the beginning of his political struggle in 2003, I can vouch for him that his anti-corruption fight is not hypocritical.
“He will never encourage electoral fraud nor push EFCC against anyone.
“Even as a popular but poor Presidential candidate of CPC in 2011, President Buhari rejected donations from some of his well-wishers whose source of income he didn’t trust.
“Likewise, let no one think that the outcome of the forthcoming election will make or mar Chief John Odigie-Oyegun as National Chairman as it is now known to all that he is completely sidelined and snubbed in the entire process.
“There are signs already that the Binis who are his home community with about fithy-three percent of voters in the State may not allow him take part in the campaign for those who derive pressures in pulling down Benin leaders.
“The only solution is for President Buhari himself to intercede and pacify the people of the great Benin Kingdom before it is too late. The President should not expect mad men to heal themselves.”
