Edo Elections in Peril: PDP Accused of Sabotaging Peace with Repeated Attacks on APC Candidate

BREAKING NEWS: #EDO2024 – Senator Okpebholo’s Life at Risk: Three Deadly Attacks in Campaign Trail Shatter Peace Efforts”

The campaign trail of Senator Monday Okpebholo, the APC governorship candidate, has been hit by yet another violent incident, allegedly carried out by thugs loyal to the PDP. This latest attack occurred as Okpebholo’s campaign team arrived at Ugbekpe Ekperi Ward 6 in Etsako Central local government, following successful rallies in Anegbette and Udaba.

This marks the third attack on Okpebholo’s campaign. Earlier incidents in Benin and Akoko Edo resulted in significant casualties and damage, with the Benin attack tragically claiming the life of Inspector Akor Onu and the Akoko Edo attack leading to the destruction of APC campaign vehicles.

The repeated assaults on Okpebholo and his team highlight growing concerns about the commitment of the PDP to a peaceful and transparent election in Edo State. The continued targeting of the APC candidate suggests an escalating threat to the safety of both the candidate and his supporters.
