Monday Okpebholo, the Governor of Edo State, has pledged to step down from office if Bola Tinubu fails to secure victory in the 2027 general elections.
Okpebholo made this vow on Friday during an interview on African Independent Television, AIT.
He reeled out development projects in the state, saying that Edo people will appreciate Tinubu through the ballot come 2027.
“Edo people have not even thanked Tinubu. How they will thank him is through their votes.
“The various projects across the state are the things that will speak for Tinubu and he will win here. Bet me, if he doesn’t win, I will resign as governor.
“There’s no election here for him. I’m a politician, who under-studied Chief Aneni. My style of politics is not thuggery but grassroots,” he said.
