SHOCKING! Watch Video As APC’s Okpebholo Boldly Promises To Provide INSECURITY In Edo During Campaign
A video showing Monday Okpebholo, the All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship candidate for Edo State, making an error during a campaign speech in Ovia North Local Government Area has gone viral. The incident occurred on Thursday but started trending widely on social media by Saturday.
In the video, Okpebholo is seen addressing a crowd during his campaign rally when he mistakenly said, ” We’ re going to provide you with insecurity. ” The error was immediately noticed by Senator Adams Oshiomhole, who represents Edo- North and is also a former governor of Edo State. Oshiomhole, who was standing beside Okpebholo on the stage, signaled to him, prompting Okpebholo to quickly correct himself.
The blunder has sparked conversation across social media platforms, with many sharing their opinions. Some have raised concerns about Okpebholo’ s readiness for leadership, while others have brushed it off as a simple mistake that could happen to anyone under pressure.
As of now, neither the APC nor Okpebholo’ s campaign team has issued a formal statement addressing the incident. The campaign mistake comes just weeks before the highly anticipated Edo State governorship election, scheduled for September 21.
Okpebholo will be up against 16 other candidates, including Asue Ighodalo of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party (LP). The upcoming election is expected to be highly competitive, with all candidates working hard to secure the support of voters in Edo State.
As the video continues to spread online, it remains to be seen how it will affect Okpebholo’ s campaign in the final stretch before the election. For now, the gaffe has become a talking point in the lead- up to what promises to be a closely watched election.
