“I thank the leadership of my party especially our President, Bola Tinubu for standing firm for Justice and allowing equity to prevail and it led to the success and victory recorded by our party.

“The people that wrote results and were announcing fake results on the internet, are the same people crying today that somebody rigged the election.

“It is sad to say that the criminals are crying today that they have lost and will continue to lose. They are spending money day and night and wasting their money and will wait in vain.

“Edo people have spoken, they have chosen the part of development, peace and part of unity. This is what Edo people have chosen and that is how it will remain.

“I want to thank Esan people for standing by me and ensuring sound victory. Thank you for the confidence reposed in me and thank you for your vote. This crowd has shown that you people voted for me.

“I will not disappoint Edo people, I will not disappoint Esan people, I will do the right thing and allow justice to prevail.

“I thank the traditional rulers in the entire Esan land, leaders of Esan land, party leaders, and all that stood by me to become the governor of Edo State and above all I give God the glory,” Okpebholo said.

The governor also commended Edo people for voting him to power and promised not to dissapoint them. He decried that, those who lost would continue to cry foul because their rigging strategies failed.

“We are happy to celebrate the victory God Almighty has given to us and we thank Edo people for the mandate as all can see that the governor has hit the ground running.

“This is how it will be in the next 8 years. In the last 8 years there was no governance as governor Okpebholo started where Comrade Adams Oshiomole stopped.” Tenebe said.

While speaking on behalf of the traditional rulers, Onojie of Uromi, His Royal Highness Anselm Aidenojie II expressed joy that the Esan people now have an Esan son as the governor of the State.
