Israel Afeare, known as Israel DMW, has urged Edo State Governor, Monday Okpebholo, to resign and transfer power to PDP’s Asue Ighodalo, whom he claims was the people’s choice in the last election.
In an Instagram post, he alleged that Okpebholo’s administration has caused unrest since assuming office.
“My dear governor Okpebholo, I want to specially beg and advise that you resign and immediately hand over to Asue Ighodalo, who majority of we Edolites truly voted as our governor sir,” he wrote.
Israel DMW alleged that the “ancestors” were unhappy with the election outcome, calling it “pure robbery.” He compared it to Nigeria’s controversial June 12, 1993, presidential election, emphasizing his dissatisfaction with the process.
“The entire state has not had one single peace since you took over sir. The ANCESTORS are fully angry with the pure robbery that took place. Some Heads are too very strong to be cheated. Some robberies sometimes don’t get successful. We know you have connections to cover everything sir. We know the real truth of what transpired would come out many years later, like June 12 sir,” he added.
Governor Okpebholo, who won under the APC, has not responded to Israel DMW’s remarks. The Edo governorship election remains controversial, with opposition figures questioning its credibility and alleging irregularities in the process.
