EDO STATE GOVERNOR, GODWIN OBASEKI RECEIVE RABIU KWANKWASO IN BENIN CITY

Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, yesterday, received former Governor of Kano State and presidential candidate of the New Nigeria Peoples Party, NNPPRabiu Kwankwaso, in Benin City, as the party flagged off its campaign in the state. Addressing journalists, Kwankwaso warned Nigerians against politics of ethnicity and religion. According to him, any party or candidate that comes out in the face of ethnicity or with the issue of religion, that party or candidate at the national level has failed in the election even before it starts.

Kwankwaso who was received by a crowd of supporters in Uromi, commissioned the party’s Edo Central campaign Secretariat in the town. Meanwhile, he urged the people of Edo state to vote for its senatorial candidate, Okoduwa Akhigbe, and other candidates in the state. Earlier at the palace of the traditional ruler of Uromi, Anslem Edenojie II, Kwankwaso assured the royal father that if elected, insecurity, collapse in infrastructure and bad economy would be things of the past.
