By-election results proved no mandate was stolen- Okpebholo 


Edo Governor Monday Okpebholo has said that last Saturday’s by-election results showed that he won last year’s governorship election.

Okpebholo said the results represented a reflection of the love of Edo people for the All Progressives Congress.

The Edo Governor spoke when he received the House of Representatives member-elect for Ovia Federal Constituency, Hon. Gabriella Omosede Igbinedion, who was led by her predecessor and Edo Deputy Governor, Hon. Dannis Idahosa on a thank you visit.

He said the results showed the people freely voted for the APC and that no mandate was stolen.

According to him: “This by-election results show that Edo people have spoken. They cried that we stole their mandate. I waited for this election to really know if we actually stole their mandate. 

“See the results that came from Edo Central by-election. They show that their mandate was never stolen at all as APC won 51 wards out of 51 wards. This shows that the people gave their mandate to APC. No mandate was stolen.

“The candidates of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the past election, chairman of past election along side the candidates in this present election all lost their wards and units. This shows that the people never voted for them at all. 

“This by-election is a reflection that Edo is APC and APC won the election as the election results show that PDP lost.

“Edo is APC, and we love President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, and our promises of securing 2.5 million votes is a task that must be accomplished. We would not sleep but continue to work hard to achieve our goals.”

Hon. Idahosa explained that he came to present his successor to the Governor.

According to him: “There was a by-election at the Ovia Federal Constituency on Saturday, the 16th of August 2025, and a winner has emerged, and she will now be representing the people of Ovia.

“She is my successor, and I am here to present her to you today and also thank you for showing purposeful leadership, and the people of Ovia Federal Constituency have asked me to thank you.”

Barr. Igbinedion assured the Governor that she would represent the people well.

She said: “The people should expect that I would hit the ground running. I am not new to the National Assembly and will bring my experience to bear as I embark on projects that will benefit my people.

“The vote we got in Ovia Federal Constituency was a combination of so many factors but one thing I must say is that, the Ovia people recognized the hard work you have put in not to the development of Ovia Federal Constitucy alone but to the State as a whole where the entire State is feeling your impact.”
