2027: I will resign if Tinubu loses in Edo – Gov Okpebholor

Edo State Governor, Monday Okpebholor, has staked his job on President Bola Tinubu’s victory in the state come 2027, insisting that the All Progressives Congress (APC) is not just popular in Edo, it is unshakeable.

Speaking during an interview on TVC, where he boldly declared that the APC is targeting 3.5 million votes, the governor dismissed the existence of any serious opposition in the state.

Okpebholor, whose administration has pushed a series of infrastructure and development projects since the APC took over Edo, said the people are already lining up solidly behind the President.

According to him, the 2027 outcome in Edo State is already written.

“There is no opposition here in Edo, everybody is for Asiwaju in this state.

“Tinubu is more popular than me in Edo State. If he doesn’t win the presidential election in Edo in 2027, I will resign.”

The governor maintained that Edo people have felt the impact of APC governance and are ready to reciprocate at the polls with massive numbers that will leave no room for doubt.
