A video of where the All Progressives Congress governorship candidate for Edo State, Monday Okpebholo, made a gaffe while addressing the crowd during a campaign rally at Ovia North Local Government Area of the state on Thursday has gone viral.
In the video, which started trending on Saturday and has been widely shared on social media, Okpebholo said, “We’re going to provide you with insecurity.”
In the video, Senator Adams Oshiomhole, representing Edo-North and former governor of the state, who was standing beside Okpebholo on the podium, was seen signaling to him, after which the candidate corrected himself.
The incident has generated online discussion, with some questioning Okpebholo’s preparedness for leadership and others dismissing it as a minor error.
The APC and Okpebholo’s campaign team have yet to react to the development.
The governorship election, scheduled for September 21, sees Okpebholo competing against 16 other candidates, including Asue Ighodalo of the Peoples Democratic Party and Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party.
