Edo State Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo, has issued a stern warning to Labour Party’s 2023 presidential candidate, Peter Obi, insisting that he must obtain security clearance before making any future visits to the state
The warning comes after Obi’s recent visit to Benin City on July 7, during which he donated N15 million to St. Philomena Hospital School of Nursing Sciences.
Governor Okpebholo criticized the visit, linking it to a surge in violence that reportedly left three people d8ad shortly after Obi’s departure.
“That man who says he has no ‘shishi’ came and dropped N15 million. Where did he get it from? After he left, three people were k!lled. For this reason, Obi must not come to Edo without security clearance,” Okpebholo stated.
He emphasized that Obi’s safety could not be guaranteed without official approval and described the timing of his visit as suspicious, warning that such visits would no longer be tolerated without prior notification to the state government.
