2 Secs Everywhere Don Burst As Oshiomhole Harvests PDP Members Ahead Of September Governorship Elections

In the melodious words of Whizkid’s hit song ‘Ghetto Love’, “Two seconds everything don burst oo, the kinda love I get for you, na maramma e too cost oo,” resonates a fitting analogy to the recent political scene in Edo State.

The unwavering affection of Comrade Adams Oshiomhole towards the APC is palpable, evident in every strategic maneuver he orchestrates. Yesterday, at his abode in Benin City, the distinguished Edo North Senator and former Governor of the state, welcomed a significant influx of decampees from the opposition party, PDP. Among them were former council chairmen, adding weight to the political landscape of the state.

Since the meticulous realignment and consolidation of the Edo State APC following the gubernatorial primaries, Adams Oshiomhole has emerged as a formidable rallying point for the party, magnetizing members from opposition camps in droves.

Yesterday’s event unfolded like a political tsunami, sweeping through Edo State under 2 Secs as Oshiomhole played host to these defectors in his home. These defectors, termed as ‘men of timber and caliber’ in local parlance, signify a monumental coup for the PDP.

The significance of this influx cannot be overstated. Notable among the returnees are familiar faces who were once staunch members of the PDP: Comrade John Osi Akhigbe, former Etsako Central Local Government chairman; Hon (Engr) Dr Josie Ogedegbe, Igueben; Hon Frank Ilaboya, Owan West; Hon Andrew Osigwe, Owan East; Hon Napoleon Agbama, Uhunmwonde; Scott Ogbemudia, Ovia North East; Hon Austin Okoibhole, Esan North East; and Hon Mrs. Ruth Osahor, Esan West.

As Wizkid’s lyrics aptly capture, “Adamma gimme special loving…Omoge mi o lo’le, lo’le, lo’le. Girl, mi o lo’le, lo’le, Omo-omoge mi o lo’le, lo’le, lo-lo, le-le, lo’le, lo’le….Mama-mama-mama mi o lo’le.” Oshiomhole is indeed exuding infectious vibes as the APC gears up for the ‘Clash Of the Titans’ in the forthcoming Edo elections – truly “Edo GUBERNATORIAL ELECTION No B Beans’!

As the countdown to the Edo Elections commences, anticipation mounts for what promises to be a riveting and consequential political saga. Stay tuned as the campaigns officially kick off, promising a whirlwind of captivating events.
