Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo State has assured President Bola Ahmed Tinubu of the maximum support of the people of the state ahead the 2027 presidential election.
The governor made the promise on Monday during a food outreach organised by the Renewed Hope Initiative, RHI, that the people of the state will deliver 100 percent of their votes to the president if he chooses to contest for a second term.
RHI is an initiative of Oluremi Tinubu, the wife of the president.
The initiative was launched last year by the First Lady, and not a few states in the country have benefited form the food outreach. The states, apart from Edo include , Benue, Nasarawa, Ekiti, Gombe and Cross Rivers.
Others states will soon benefit from the RHI, according to the organisers.
Speaking yesterday, Okpebholo said the initiative could not have succeeded without the support of President Tinubu, and as such the people of the state will return the favour in the next election by voting massively for him if he choose to contest.
Th president has yet to complete his first term in office, there are however suggestions that he will run again in the next presidential election slated for less than two years.
Okpebholo asserted that the people of the state are happy with Tinubu , assuring him of “100 percent votes in the State come 2027 presidential election.”
The governor said, “The entire people of Edo State are very appreciative of this kind gesture of food outreach and donations of different food items to the vulnerable in Edo State.
“We are happy in Edo State, and the people are beginning to see and enjoy a new dawn. Look at food items all over the place in this hall, all thanks to the president and his wife for this great initiative that Edo people are benefitting from today.
“We are assuring you, Mr. President of our 100 percent votes in the State come 2027 presidential election, and if possible, we will give you more than 100 percent.”
