I Won 2024 Edo Guber Election, Electoral Fraud Allegations ‘Product Of Hallucination’ -Gov Okpebholo

Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo State, on Saturday submitted that those who are raising allegations of electoral fraud after the gubernatorial election that was held on September 21, 2024, had produced fake election results and announced these on social media.

Team@orientactualmags.com learned that Okpebholo said this while giving his speech during the homecoming reception held for him at the Esan Central Local Government Council Secretariat on Saturday.

Governor Okpebholo said those who are making the electoral fraud allegations will continue to lose, spend their money on fruitless ventures, waste away time, energy and resources.

He said, ‘I thank the Edo State people for the overwhelming support given to our party during the September 21 governorship election. I am happy for the resounding victory God gave us. I thank President Bola Tinubu and our party leaders for not playing anti-party but stood firm for justice and equity to prevail, which led to the success and victory recorded by our party.

The people who wrote results and were announcing fake results on the internet are the same people crying today that somebody rigged the election. It is sad to say that the criminals are crying today that they have lost and will continue to lose. They are spending money day and night and wasting their money, and they will wait in vain. Edo people have spoken. They have chosen the path of development, peace, and unity. This is what Edo people have chosen, and that is how it will remain.

I want to thank the Esan people for standing by me and ensuring a resounding victory. Thank you for the confidence reposed in me, and thank you for your votes. This crowd has shown that you people voted for me. I will not disappoint the Edo people. I will not disappoint the Esan people. I will do the right thing and allow justice to prevail.

I thank the traditional rulers in the entire Esan land, leaders of Esan land, party leaders, and all those who stood by me to become the Governor of Edo State and above all I give God the glory’.

Also speaking, the Onojie of Uromi, His Royal Highness, Anselm Aidenojie II, said the people of Esan land are happy that their son is now the governor of the state.

‘We, the traditional rulers from Esan land, went round the state to appeal for support to produce the governor, and today it is a reality. We thank the Oba of Benin Kingdom, Oba Ewuare ll and grateful to all for the support. We believe that the Governor will deliver the dividends of democracy to the people of Edo State’ he said.

Also speaking, Edo State APC chairman, Emperor Jarret Tenebe,  thanked the people of the state for the mandate given to Okpebholo, saying he had since hit the ground running .

‘We are happy to celebrate the victory God Almighty has given to us, and we thank Edo State people for the mandate as all can see that the governor has hit the ground running. This is how it will be in the next eight years. In the last eight years, there was no governance. Governor Okpebholo has started from where Comrade Adams Oshiomhole stopped’ he said.
