Asue Ighodalo, the Peoples Democratic Party’s candidate for governor of Edo State on September 21st, has pledged to fight against poverty and work for the growth of businesses if elected.

Speaking to the traders on Monday at the New Benin Market, Ighodalo said that he would also encourage prosperity for everybody.

In addition, he promised to make sure that the people who harass and threaten the traders at the market with unlawful taxes will never come again.

He described the PDP as the light, urging the traders to shun darkness.

He emphasised the need to work together for the progress and development of Edo State as the election draws near.

He said, “I thank the traders for receiving me and I promise that I would work assiduously for the growth and development of their businesses and promote prosperity for all.

“There is light and darkness. We are the light. Vote for the PDP. It’s the light. There’s good and there’s bad. The PDP represents good. So vote for the PDP.

“I will work tirelessly until there is no more poverty. See me as your son, like a son you laboured to train through school, now working and he is back to take care of you, I will work to make you happy.

“There are places that are not as richly endowed as Edo State but they are doing very well. We can do the same,” he stated.

Ighodalo’s wife, Ifeyinwa, expressed gratitude for the warm reception accorded her husband and his entourage and assured the traders that her husband would fulfill his promise to the traders and the people of Edo State.

She stated that she would also support her husband to ensure that he fulfills his promise to the traders.

She also distributed aprons and wrappers to the women.

In his brief welcome address, the Coordinator of the New Benin Market Christian Traders Fellowship, Ero Amienghomwan, prayed that by December 1, 2024, Ighodalo would be at Osadebey Avenue, the seat of Edo State Government.

Addressing the traders, President of Edo State Market Women/Traders, Mrs Blacky Ogiemen, rallied support for Ighodalo.

She thanked the women for coming out to receive the PDP candidate and charged them to come out en masse on September 21 to vote for the PDP with the umbrella as its symbol.
