Formerly associated with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and now a chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams expressed his reasons for switching parties and his perspective on the upcoming Edo State gubernatorial election. He criticized Governor Godwin Obaseki’s administration, accusing it of mismanagement and neglecting crucial sectors like education, agriculture, industrialization, and security.
Adams rebutted allegations that he and others left the PDP due to financial motives, emphasizing that the primary concern was the state’s overall governance and development trajectory under Obaseki. He pointed out alleged failures in infrastructure maintenance and questioned the effectiveness of initiatives like Edo-Best in improving educational standards.
Regarding economic policies, Adams criticized the state’s borrowing practices, particularly to cover recurrent expenditures like salaries, suggesting it jeopardizes Edo’s financial stability. He also raised concerns over unfulfilled agricultural projects despite substantial financial allocations, citing the example of funds earmarked for farms in Sobe.
Adams further lamented the high cost of living in Edo State compared to Lagos, attributing it to excessive taxation on market goods which ultimately burdens consumers with inflated prices for basic commodities.
Looking ahead, Adams advocated for a change in leadership by urging Edo residents to vote out the PDP and support Senator Monday Okpebholo of the APC in the upcoming election. He portrayed Okpebholo as a candidate capable of building upon the foundation laid by former Governor Adams Oshiomole, promising progress and stability for the state.
In conclusion, Adams painted a dire picture of Edo under Obaseki’s rule, urging voters to rally behind Okpebholo as the solution to what he perceives as years of stagnation and economic hardship imposed on the state.
