Edo Gubernatorial: I Am Funding My Self, I Am Not Answerable To Any Godfather – Olumide Akpata
Posted by Thandiubani on Fri 30th Aug, 2024 - tori.ngAkpata stated this during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Thursday.
The Labour Party (LP) governorship candidate in the September 21, 2024 election, Olumide Akpata has revealed why Edo people can trust him.
He said that he is not answerable to any political benefactor and cannot be remote-controlled by anyone if he wins the forthcoming poll
Akpata stated this during an interview on Channels Television’s Politics Today programme on Thursday.
According to him, the Edo people can trust the Labour Party because they are only answerable to the party.
“I have no strings attached. I am not answerable to any godfather. I am not answerable to any political benefactor.
“That is one reason they (Edo people) can trust the Labour Party government because we are answerable to the people,” he said.
Akpata said unlike other candidates attached to former and serving governors, he is not answerable to any political godfather.
The LP candidate also said his campaign is not funded by Governor Godwin Obaseki whose anointed candidate is PDP’s Ighodalo.
“Initially, I was said to be the agent of Governor Obaseki, we were able to debunk that. Today, I was said to be sponsored by the APC. I think it is conspiracy theorising that is most stupid.
“I am funding myself and I have friends who believe in me and that we can do much better in Edo,” he said.
