Edo leaders condemn assassination attempt, say Okpebholo’s vision is to catapult state into prosperous place

Edo leaders on Friday expressed concern over an assassination attempt targeting the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate, Senator Monday Okpebholo.

‘’We are shattered by this terrible event. The assassination plot underlined the desperation of forces which retard progress in Edo State to promote violence and retain power at all cost’’

The leaders in a statement issued in Benin described the assassination attempt as inhuman, ruthless and barbaric.

‘’It is an organized terrorism against the APC candidate and a challenge to the electorate. The day of reckoning is at hand’’.

The statement signed by the spokesperson of the Edo Unity Front (EUF), Dr Pius Akugbe urged the police and other security agents to devise counter measures that will make it impossible for the forces of despotism to carry out their sinister designs of eliminating APC chieftains in Edo State.

‘’The assassination attempt is inextricably interwoven into the state ruling party’s assault on political opponents and progressive minded intellectuals in Edo State’’

The statement praised Okpebholo for providing the necessary leadership towards conquering the ruling party in September.

‘’We can see that leaders of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) are having sleepless nights. History is on the side of Senator Monday Okpebholo and the Edo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) is on the side of history’’

The statement urged the police to bring the hired thugs and hoodlums to light for prosecution.

It also emphasized the ascendancy of evil in Edo State and Okpebholo’s great qualities, courage, integrity and his sense of high purpose’’

‘’Monday Okpebholo’s vision for Edo State is to catapult the state into a hopeful and prosperous place for the people’’

‘’The death of the police officer is a great loss to Nigeria and the family. We extend to the Inspector General of Police and the family of the police officer our most heartfelt sympathy’’ the statement added.
