He emphasized that everyone is backing the ruling party in advance of the 2027 elections and asserted that there is no opposition in the state.
“There is no opposition here in Edo; everyone is in favor of Asiwaju in this state,” he declared.
“In Edo State, Tinubu is more popular than I am. I’ll step down if he doesn’t win the 2027 Edo presidential election.
