As the senator representing Edo Central, Okpebholo boldly declared that the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) wouldn't secure a single vote at his polling unit. His assertion underscores his strong connection with his constituents.

His statement reads in part:

Edo 2024: APC candidate speaks on security

Okpebholo also addressed concerns about security, dismissing them as exaggerated. "What they are saying about security is hyping. No knockout or a stick of matches. It's just to scare people away from voting," he stated. This reassurance comes amidst reports of voting proceeding smoothly in various wards and polling units across Edo State.

The APC candidate's comments also took a subtle jab at Governor Godwin Obaseki, saying, "He wanted to cause fire in Edo State, but by the grace of God, everything is moving perfectly." This statement hints at the intense political rivalry in the state.

As the election unfolds, Okpebholo faces stiff competition from Asue Ighodalo of the PDP, Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party (LP), and 14 other candidates vying for the coveted Osadebe House. The outcome will determine the next leader of Edo State, bringing an end to Governor Obaseki's eight-year tenure.
