– According to the APC, the will be chasing shadows if they think they can win Edo

The political adviser to Adams Oshiomhole, the Edo state governor, Charles Idahosa, has advised governors of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the south south region to stop ‎dissipating energy in plotting to recapture the state in the September 10 governorship election.

Idahosa who was reacting to the last Sunday’s meeting of the PDP governors in Asaba where they vowed to return Edo state to the PDP during the governorship election, said the governors should rather think about how to develop their various states with the huge resources accrued to them.

According to the APC leader, the PDP governors will be chasing shadows if they think they can win Edo.

“They failed to win her even when Jonathan was here, with all their rigging machine so is it now they think they can win. They will be slaughtered.

“Their boast is very laughable and a huge joke because they suddenly realized that Edo state is a state that they must win by all means. It is so strange that they are just waking up from their slumber to realize that they want to take over Edo state considering the fact that for eight years, all the instrument of rigging, all the instrument of oppression that they had, they were unable to take Edo state.

“Now because they have failed in the governance of their state with all the back log of their salaries in their state they now want to divert attention to Edo. They must first of all rescue their states and put them back on the part of progress and development like Edo state before talking about winning. It is even more laughable because if not for the strange Supreme Court judgment they would all have gone.

“Let me tell them, Edo state is not Bayelsa or Rivers state where Wike thinks he is a super star. The whole world knew how the governorship election in that state was rigged. The south south PDP should shut up. This will be another wild goose chase, but we are waiting for them in Edo state. We are aware they are planning to import ex-militants to come and rig for them in Edo state but they will meet their waterloo.

“The Binis are not an easy prey, so we are waiting for them. They can give all their stolen money to their candidate in Edo we are waiting. No governor in the south south has any moral justification to talk about Edo state instead they should come and learn how Oshiomhole has successfully ruled Edo state so far. They should be ashamed with all that transpired with INEC officials, how they massively rigged elections in their favour,” he said.
