EDO DECIDE : IHAMA CAMPAIGN TEAM (ICT) DEBUNKED THE BRIBERY ALLEGATION MAKING ROUNDS ON SOCIAL MEDIA AGAINST THE PERSON OF HON OGBEIDE IHAMA (PDP ASPIRANT FOR THE 2020 GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION)

With the successful and peaceful conclusion of our party- the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Primaries, now is an appropriate time to address an issue concerning our former Aspirant Rt. Hon (Engr.) Omoregie Ogbeide-Ihama which borders on Reported Financial Inducements he allegedly received to ‘step-down’ his ambition in favour of the Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki, who is our Party’s Gubernatorial Candidate for the coming Edo State Election. The vision that drove the Candidacy of our Aspirant was one that was to midwife the birth of a Society and Governance System where things will be done differently, and negative norms will be replaced with systems that are founded on Integrity, Strong Character, and the ability to insist and stand on due Process and Decent Principles. Our Aspirant Rt. Hon (Engr.) Omoregie Ogbeide-Ihama symbolized all of the virtues we believe are needed for the kind of Order we sought to establish in our State’s Governance Space. A son of the Benin kingdom with Royalty in his Lineage, raised in a Family with strong pedigree, having wide exposure, humble, possessing strong character and a man of principles, it is on record that in his over 5 years as a Public Servant he has conducted himself with the highest level of integrity evident in his not being involved in any sort of enquiry or story related to corrupt practices. It is absurd and laughable therefore to think that such a man would sell his ambition to serve his people for any amount of money. While it is not our tradition to respond to any kind of sensational social media fabrications, we want to state for record purposes, that no single ‘kobo’ or any other kind of financial inducement was received by Rt. Hon (Engr.) Omoregie Ogbeide-Ihama or his Campaign Structure to influence his support of the Godwin Obaseki Candidacy before or after the Primaries. All actors are alive and are available to confirm or refute this statement. His action was a necessary sacrifice to make for the continued development, peace, stability and corporate interest of our dear State, and the image of the Benin Kingdom. This is one we believe every Edo indigene is grateful for, and history will keep record that such a huge sacrifice was made by this illustrious Son of the kingdom. We thank everyone for their support and assure all that the legacy of performance that the Ogbeide-Ihama’s name is known for will continue without blemish and will remain one that can always be trusted. Signed *Hon (Dcn) Paschal Ugbome* DG, Ogbeide-Ihama Campaign Organisation. Edo2020
