He said: “2027 is a reality in Edo State as President Bola Amed Tinubu will continue in office.
“I charge the 17 of you today that the campaign for the election of President Bola Tinubu has started here today.
“Go back to your various local governments and erect his billboards to draw home the message of re-electing President Tinubu.
“There is no vacancy in 2027 in Abuja. Those forming a political party now can’t rule us.
“They ruled their States, and the people suffered from kidnapping, but since they left office, their States are now free. Such people can’t rule Nigeria.”
