Edo People Will Overcome APC’s Armoured Tanks – Pedro Obaseki
he Edo election has been won by the people of Edo State despite the machinations of hostile forces trying to use security and other agencies of the Federal Government to thwart them, Dr Pedro Obaseki, the deputy director-general of the Asue Ighodalo Campaign has said.
Pedro Obaseki who spoke in an interview late on Thursday said that the Edo people will push through their choice of Dr Asue Ighodalo despite the armoured tanks being used to intimidate them by a former governor of the state campaigning for the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Dr Obaseki who spoke in an interview with AIT said:
“When you push us to the wall we will come out fighting like a bull. A people who for centuries were not trampled upon by any black nation we will come out to express ourselves.
“I am giving it to you that as at 7.30 p.m. as we speak that at his place (former governor of Edo State) that there are two armoured tanks, one on this side one on the other side and about 30 police vehicles then all the thugs are there.
“There is no thoroughfare there right now but that will not work. The Edo people we no de fear. On a normal level we know how to face these people. So, on the day of the poll we will all move to the polls and all express ourselves not because of but inspite of all these people that want to mangle us.
“When Edo people, a set of people who for centuries no tribe of black extraction ever conquered, when we are confronted with things that want to pull at our strength, we rise up and we fight back.
“With our PVCs we will trample these people who are bent on changing the will of our people. This can happen any where else, but this is Edo, a race that have the conqueror DNA and any other person whosoever wants to, we will sweep them away with their brooms.
“The Edo people know that Asue Ighodalo is our umbrella into our future,” Dr Pedro Obaseki concluded.
