The senator representing Edo North senatorial district, and former governor of Edo State, Adams Oshiomhole, has denied the allegation that the All-Progressives Congress, APC, had already stock-piled money to buy votes of the people during the ongoing governorship election.

Oshiomhole, also said he had not received any report of violence from anywhere across the state, as the election was ongoing.

Speaking with journalists shortly after casting his vote at Iyamho, Ward 10 Unit 01 in Estako West local government area, Oshiomhole said voting had been going on peacefully.

According to him, “It is laughable when I heard this kind of allegation.
You have been here; did you see anywhere where they are sharing money? People turned out in large number to vote for us because they want good government.

“During our campaign, people came out to see me, not because I wanted to give them something but because of what I have done for them while I was in office as the governor.

” All structures that I have put in place eight years ago are still there, but the ones put up by the present administration, in one year, they have washed off.

“So, our people have seen the difference. Some people do tell me that since I left the government, they haven’t seen the real presence of government in their communities.”
