Edo State Commissioner for Oil, Gas and Natural Resources, Mr. Saturday Uwulekhue, yesterday said there was no basis for comparison between the 10 years administration of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and eight years of All Progressives Congress (APC) in the state.
Uwulekhue, Edo State nominee on the board of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), stated this while playing host to Community Development Associations chairmen and youth leaders from Orhionmwon Local Government Area at his residence in Benin.
He said it is hypocritical for PDP leaders to pose as if they have the capacity to win Edo State, boasting that no amount of propaganda by the PDP against Governor Adams Oshiomhole and the APC governorship candidate, Mr. Godwin Obaseki can save the opposition from suffering defeat
come September 28.
He recalled the deplorable state of infrastructure in parts of Edo state during the PDP era and commended Governor Oshiomhole for the total departure from the poor state Edo used to be known to what it is presently, especially the uncommon foundation in education through the red roof revolution, the new face of health care with the new Central Hospital complex.
“We can also talk about massive investment in urban- rural roads, creation of an enabling environment for private sector investment to thrive in agriculture, the almighty Azura Power Plant and several other giant strides that have combined to make Edo a haven for all.
“Oshiomhole may not have answered all our prayers in Edo, as it is normal with all humans, but he has done it better than any other before him. So if he has urged us to support Obaseki as a man he believes in, it is only proper and sensible to go in that direction,” he said.
