“I want to thank you all for this massive turnout even when they say Etsako Central is one of the smallest local government areas in the state, but you people still have this large crowd,” he stated.
The governor also commended them for coming out during the continuous voters’ registration exercise in the state, thereby increasing the voting strength of Etsako Central, saying there is a gas pipeline that passes through Etsako Central and Asue Ighodalo, the PDP governorship candidate has a plan to utilise the gas pipeline to generate electricity for the people.
He, however, described Ighodalo as a “Chief Master Planner,” adding that “he has the best plans to take Edo State further into progress and prosperity.”
In his remarks, Ighodalo commended the Governor Obaseki-led administration for the improvement in the education system, workers’ welfare, infrastructure, health and others and promised to build on what is already on the ground.
