…He professes to be the most capable President for Nigeria
By Osahon Jude
In the face of severe economic hardship, extreme hunger, and escalating cost of living, the All Progressives Congress, APC, Governorship Candidate in Edo State, Senator Monday Okpebholo has endorsed the recent Fuel Price hike and encouraged the people of Edo to support President Bola Tinubu, citing him as the most exceptional President in Nigeria’s history.
He made this known during a compelled and imperfect interview with British Broadcasting Corporation, BBC, Pidgin, after previously evading numerous requests for interviews from various television stations, including Channels TV and Arise TV.
Okpebholo described Tinubu as a courageous leader and urged Nigerians to support him.
Okpebholo’s ringing endorsement of Tinubu underscores the widely held notion by many Edo People that Monday Okpebholo a.k.a Akpakomiza is a colossal disaster that must never happen to Edo State.
Beyond his poor grasp of English language and incompetence also lies a wicked heart that is tone deaf and insensitive to the plight of the people. It will be recalled that his reaction to the ₦70,000 minimum wage announced by Gov. Godwin Obaseki was negative and he issued a statement against it indicating that he will reduce it.
Pray, tell how will any sane person support this fuel price increase and other evil policies of the APC govt which has impoverished our people with most Nigerians unable to afford even a decent meal a day?
Petrol currently sells for ₦1,500 per litre in most parts of Benin city with transport fares rising to the roof. Prices of food items have shot up with a bag of rice selling for almost ₦100,000. A crate of medium sized eggs is now about ₦5,200, a loaf of bread is ₦2000, inflation has hit 40% under this evil APC regime.
In the face of all these, Akpakomiza is publicly supporting the fuel price hike and calling Tinubu the best President and that Edo people must support him.
If we don’t reject APC in Edo, APC will kill us.
