According to the report from the Vanguard, The controversies surrounding the upcoming September 21 governorship election in Edo State intensified yesterday as the All Progressives Congress (APC) demanded the resignation of Osarodion Ogie, the running mate to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate. The APC argued that Ogie should not continue to receive salaries and emoluments from the state while campaigning.

In response, Chris Nehikhare, the Commissioner for Communication and Orientation, criticized the APC for their lack of understanding of the electoral act, stating that “the electoral act permits Ogie to be in government until one month before the election.”

The Acting State Chairman of the APC, Emperor Jarrett Tenebe, issued a statement condemning Ogie’s decision to remain in office, calling it “patently unacceptable and an affront to the good people of Edo State.”

Tenebe stated, “As an unelected public officer, Mr. Ogie is given an ultimatum to resign from government forthwith as his continuing stay in office is a clear violation of all known rules of decency and ethics. By remaining in office, while posing as running mate in the gubernatorial election, Mr. Ogie is also in violation of the public service rules which prohibit a public servant from using public resources to fund private purposes.”

Tenebe further criticized Ogie, stating, “Mr. Ogie is currently earning a salary and other official benefits as Secretary to the State Government, even while pursuing a private ambition to become the deputy governor. He’s using official vehicles and other government logistics to service his electioneering campaign. This is unacceptable and a waste of taxpayers’ money. This is the very definition of corruption. No unelected public servant should be allowed to do this. It’s patently wrong and a disservice to the state and the long-suffering people of Edo State.”

In response to the APC’s demands, Nehikhare stated, “They should go and read the electoral law. It says 30 days before the election. It is obvious now the APC cannot read and their candidate cannot read. It is a party of clueless people.”..…….See More
