He told the mammoth crowd at the rally that Governor Monday Okpebholo had done well for the local government area in terms of infrastructure upgrade, security of lives and property, and the appointment of Akoko-Edo sons and daughters into key positions.

He said it was time for the people to reward the Governor with their votes, assuring that the APC in Akoko-Edo would deliver all candidates of the party from top to bottom.

He enjoined the people to rally round the Governor to actualize the 2.5 million-vote target for the party in the state.
