He called on all Auchi Sons and Daughters at home and in the Diaspora to be united in the race towards giving power to the political party that has recognized the people of Auchi and by extension the people of Etsako West Local Government Area during Saturday’s polls so that those at the grassroots will enjoy the presence of a familiar face in government -a development which he described as one that will give the people the moral justification to demand for dividends of democracy that would bring about better standard of living and address all infrastructural deficiencies that are within the purview of the Local Government to fix.”As we know, the election for the local Government level of Governance is due and for the people in the rural areas, the local government is closer.
The elections will be due on Saturday. While we hope and pray that Almighty Allah Spares our lives to witness the election and even beyond, while we hope and pray that there is adequate security in place to ensure that no one is hurt or intimidated everybody should be able to come to express his or her volition to vote for the right candidate -the candidate of their choice.
I would personally advise that Auchi people should come out in their numbers to show the strength of their voting capacity. It is needed, it is required. It shows our people are committed towards bringing about the dividends of democracy to their people.
So the way to show our voting strength is to come out in our numbers to ensure that all the booklets that will be brought to Auchi are properly utilized.” He said.Speaking on the modus operandi of the elections as have been announced by EDSIEC and the Edo State Government, the Scholar who doubles as the Takobi of Auchi Sacred Kingdom called on the youths to toe the part of peace in the exercise and warned that acts of violence could be inimical to their set goal of victory.He admonished the youths to not fall for any temptation towards unethical practices during and after the election -noting that what should be done is to mobilize massively with a view to ensuring that everyone comes out to vote for the party that has recognized their own.
