Olusegun Bamgbose, Esq., National
Coordinator, Concerned Advocates for Good Governance, CAGG, has claimed that
the recent visit to the Presidential Villa by the immediate past National
Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, was to ask President Muhammadu
Buhari for the presence of federal might in Edo State during the September 19
governorship election.
The senior lawyer noted that with
recent happenings and utterances from the key players, it was clear that the
forthcoming elections is a do or die affair, especially for Oshiomhole.
According to Bamgbose, Oshiomhole
“is excessively desperate to ensure that Pastor Ize -Iyamu, the APC candidate,
wins at all cost.”
Bamgbose said that “The estranged National Chairman must have
visited the President to get his permission, to use maximum force, be it
military and otherwise, to achieve his aim.
“Oshiomhole will certainly need
the President’s support to disorganise Obaseki. He will surely act like a
wounded lion, as far as the Edo Governorship election is concerned.
“Anyone expecting a free, fair
and peaceful election in Edo State come September, should be a day dreamer. The
election will be volatile and violent.
“Lives may be lost. The two major
parties, APC and PDP will slug it out in a desperate battle. I’ll advise the
registered voters in the election, to be security conscious.
“The election may be heavily
militarized. Tinubu is giving full support to Oshiomhole, because of his
presidential ambition come 2023. Obaseki security Aides may be withdrawn before
the election.
“Democracy might be thrown into
the waste bin during the election. PDP supporters should be vigilant as some of
them may be arrested at the eve of the election.
“Wike will be weakened a few days
to the election. I foresee a plan in the offing to cage him. My humble plea for
the voters is simple, they should not sacrifice their lives for any politician.
“Religious leaders should pray
seriously for a peaceful election in Edo come September. It’ll take a miracle
for Obaseki to survive the political onslaught to make him lose the
governorship election.”
