Edo 2024: Uhuwonde LG Ward-to-Ward Rally: Grassroot Campaign for Prosperity
By Rita Ebiuwa
The recent Uhumwonde LG ward-to-ward rally saw PDP governorship candidate Asue Ighodalo and his running mate Osarodion Ogie taking their campaign directly to the people, delivering a message centered on the ‘Pathway to Prosperity For All.’ This approach underscores their commitment to grassroots engagement and genuine connection with the electorate, contrasting sharply with the APC’s reliance on federal manipulation and election rigging.
Asue Ighodalo and Osarodion Ogie have consistently emphasized their vision for a prosperous Edo State. Their campaign’s cornerstone is the ‘Pathway to Prosperity For All,’ which includes policies and initiatives aimed at economic growth, job creation, and improved infrastructure. By addressing local concerns and proposing practical solutions, they aim to uplift communities across the state.
During the rally, the PDP candidates visited several villages in Edo State, listening to the concerns of residents and discussing how their policies could directly impact these communities. This direct engagement highlights their dedication to understanding and addressing the unique needs of each locality, ensuring that no village is left behind in the march towards prosperity.
In stark contrast, the APC and its candidates appear to be leaning on less democratic methods, banking on rigging and federal government manipulation to secure their positions. This reliance on undemocratic tactics further alienates them from the electorate, who are increasingly disillusioned by such blatant disregard for their voices and votes.
The ward-to-ward approach taken by Ighodalo and Ogie is a testament to their belief in grassroots democracy. By meeting people where they are and engaging with them on a personal level, they demonstrate a commitment to transparency, accountability, and genuine representation. This strategy not only builds trust but also galvanizes support from the ground up, creating a robust foundation for their campaign.
As the campaign trail heats up, the contrast between the PDP’s grassroots engagement and the APC’s reliance on manipulation becomes ever more apparent. The Uhumwonde LG ward-to-ward rally is a clear indicator of Asue Ighodalo and Osarodion Ogie’s dedication to a prosperous and democratic Edo State.
Their message of the ‘Pathway to Prosperity For All’ resonates strongly with the people, promising a future where every voice is heard and every community is uplifted.
