By Lucky Isibor


The chairman of the Edo chapter of the People's Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Tony Aziegbemin has said that the party is prepared for the 2 September Edo State Local Government election adding that a 19 man Campaign Council has been put in place to carry the party's message to all the nooks and crannies of the state.
Aziegbemin who stated this while addressing journalists at a press briefing in Benin City on the party's preparations for the 2 September Local Government election in the state, pointed out that they have done all that they needed to do to ensure victory for the party adding that, for them, it is a case of catch us if you can.


"With this, we wish to state very clearly that we are ready for the elections. As a party, we have done all things necessary for the elections, all arrangements have been made. It is a case of catch us if you can in terms of other political parties as far as the September elections are concerned".

While speaking on alleged accusations by other political parties that the PDP intends to use the machinery of the Edo State government under the party's control to write results for the party's candidates in the election, Aziegbemin assured that the party is well prepared and does not fall into the categories of those writing election results hence their rigorous campaigns across the wards and local government areas.

"We are not any other political party, we are PDP. We do not write results. If we wanted to write results, we won't go through the strenuous activities we lined up.

"You will recall that it was only PDP that the governor personally met with all aspirants, including chairmanship and councilorship.

"We went round the senatorial zones to meet with them. When the candidates emerged, he met with them again. Is that somebody that you think will want yo write results?

"I can assure Edo people that we are ready for the elections, and we expect them to be ready instead of crying woefully".

He said he hoped that the people of the state can reciprocate the good works of the governor by voting for all the candidates of the party in the forthcoming council’s election.
He however warned those crying wolf that the state Governor has already perfected plans to rig the election in favour of the party to have a rethink and concentrate on the election proper as the PDP as a party is in to win.
