Engr. Fred Attah, a national leader of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) from Akoko-Edo, has defected to the APC.

He was welcomed by the Edo State APC leader, Distinguished Senator Adams Oshiomhole, and Hon. Peter Akpatason.

ing him in this move are former PDP House of Assembly aspirant Emerson Bar Obade Festus, Barrister Jimoh, Hon. Roland, and several others.

The defectors cited the Governor Godwin Obaseki’s neglect of Akoko-Edo and his hijacking of the party from its original as their reasons for leaving the PDP.

The defectors also criticised the governor for imposing a foreign candidate on the PDP, someone who, according to them, cannot speak his native language, implying a lack of connection and impact on the local community.

They expressed strong belief in the leadership qualities of the APC candidate, Senator Monday Okpebholo, describing him as a “homeboy” who has significantly improved the lives of his people.

This confidence has led them to pledge their to ensure Senator Okpebholo secures one hundred percent of Akoko-Edo votes.

The defectors promised to work closely with the APC leaders to achieve this goal, highlighting a significant shift in the political landscape of Akoko-Edo.



They also mentioned that more defections from the PDP to the APC are expected in the coming days, signaling growing momentum for the APC in Akoko Edo local government.

go there and tell them the same thing. I am on ground but people will rather die than vote APC. There is no exemption in the kind of hunger ravaging the country and you think the people will follow some selfish politicians again? Just be playing. Obaseki did better than Oshiomole in Akoko-Edo and Owan, that I know of and we now have the deputy governor from Akoko-Edo and you still think the people will foolishly follow Oshiomole the Etsakor tribalist who has cornered all the federal and even state positions to Etsakor alone forgetting that Edo North is bigger than Etsakor land? Just be playing.

you mean having that position for six months isn't something? Has Oshiomole ever considered Akoko-Edo for any position or projects? Name one project Oshiomole initiated and executed in Akoko-Edo in his eighth years government?
Obaseki on the other hand has done more than enough for the local government and so they know where and who to go with come September.
Akerele has no clout and can't even deliver his ward one. The era of blind followership is far gone and forgotten. The same Taiwo that left his good position in the government of obaseki to continue to lick Oshiomoles assess? Please let's leave that empty talk and focus.

Deputy governorship is a spare tyre post.you guys had the speakership post which is more relevant for 6 years yet obaseki lost akoko in 2020 and APC cleared akoko last year.that omobayo boy that is deputy now contested for reps and took third.what do you think he will do in 6 months?
Akerele doesn't win his ward according to you but always delivers his LGA.did obaseki win his ward last year? Oga rest,you no Sabi politics like most anti APC.apc has won Edo already

Don't answer that slowpoke, let him step his foot in our LGA is talk that nonsense. He has touched live's with is personal resources. He was the major financer of pdp in my LGA. Obaseki can't use 8 month deputy governor position to decive us. Since his second tenure till now, no project from him. Alot of people are decamping from pdp to Apc because they are even seeing the lies the deputy is also indulging. The deputy governor has not attracted a single project and his mumu followers taught we are as dull like them, saying budget has been ed before he was appointed. We told them that Obaseki ed supplementary budget last year after the main budget. They just want to use the desperate deputy governor thinking he is popular for votes. We are waiting. He so much criticize Obaseki when he contested as house of rep just last year under the so called party of saints, labour party. We will disgrace him and his candidate.

Oshiomole constructed a road connecting my town igarra to Ososo ing through eight communities. The road is as good as when constructed till now. Many schools were reconstructed. Our general hospital was totally upgraded. Obaseki can't use few months deputy governor position without single development to decieve us with votes. We are enlighten people. Tell me where you are from in akoko edo. Don't say what you don't know.

which useless road? Which red roof schools without teachers? How many teachers did he employ in his eighth years of government? Obaseki has reconstructed more roads in Akoko-Edo than Oshiomole. Obaseki touched many communities while Oshiomole does nothing. Are you even aware that the lone road Oshiomole contested cost us pipe burn water? That the pipes where removed to give way to road expansion and were never replaced? Which major appointment came to Akoko-Edo under Oshiomole? Is it when he used and still using his federal power to keep the sanate, deputy governor, federal ministers and several federal appointments within the borders of Etsakor land?

Obaseki tared many inner township roads in Igarra, Enwan, Ibillo, Lampese, Ososo, Ikpeshi and many more communities. Enjoyed teachers in all the government schools because at point Saint Paul Anglican Grammar School Igarra had no single teacher for six years except the ones employed by the community associations. So keep that Oshiomole priases to yourself

keep dreaming if you think APC will win Akoko-Edo. Oshiomole's political gimmick can't deliver Akoko-Edo to him and his boy.

So it is omobayo that took third in his own election that will deliver another? Why do you talk politics childishly? Majority of the stakeholders in akoko are pro APC

you have stylishly shy away from commenting on all the atrocious acts of Oshiomole against Akoko-Edo but you say I talk childishly about politics. The people are tired of APC and they are not ashamed to it same. The results of shock you if you think the people will follow some big men to vote rubbish.
