The All Progressives Congress governorship candidate in Edo State,
Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has declared that he will not be a puppet to any
godfather if elected governor of Edo State in the Saturday’s election.
Obaseki made the declaration during an interview monitored on Television Continental on Wednesday.
“I will not be a puppet to any godfather or godmother if I become governor of Edo State,” Obaseki said.
The APC candidate said if he needed to be a puppet to anybody, he
would rather be a puppet to the good people of Edo State, whose general
mandate he was seeking to become their governor.
Obaseki described Governor Adams Oshiomhole as a true democrat who,
according to him, does not even like to be seen as a godfather, let
alone expect someone to be his puppet.
He commended the achievements of the Adams Oshiomhole administration
and promised to continue work on the good template already set by the
governor so that he could move the state to greater heights.
Obaseki said he was also set to make a positive difference in
governance, if elected, and promised to deliver more dividends of
democracy to the people of the state.
Commenting on how his government would generate at least 200,000 jobs
for youths within his first four years in office, Obaseki said he hoped
to achieve this through agricultural reforms and by also creating the
necessary enabling environment for investors to come and do business in
Edo State
