A group, Concerned Obidient Movement, has declared that it will support Asue Ighodalo, the candidate of Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the Sept. 21 Edo governorship election.
The Obidient Movement is a group of supporters of Peter Obi, the presidential candidate of Labour Party in the 2023 election.
Peter Obi has endorsed Olumide Akpata who is also running on the platform of Labour Party to become the next governor of Edo State.
But leader of the Concerned Obidient, Mr Ikhuenbor Igbinevbo, told journalists on Monday in Benin that the election transcends individual personalities.

“It is a critical moment that will shape the future of Edo. The PDP is creating a climate of renewed political energy that promises sustainable progress.
“Its candidate, Ighodalo, and the deputy, Osarodion Ogie, possess the vision and qualifications that align with the aspirations of Edo people,” he said.
Igbinevbo highlighted the candidates’ deep understanding of the State’s challenges and potential which, he said, positions them to lead the state into a new era of prosperity and responsible governance.
He urged Edo people, both at home and in the Diaspora, to unite in their support for the PDP and its candidates ahead of the election.
