The development had on Monday, August 15, attracted criticisms from the opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), which described his reasons for not being in possession of the certificates as “flimsy” and “unconvincing”.

The APC governorship candidate for the upcoming Edo 2016 elections, Godwin Obaseki, has stated that he has found his certificates which were previously declared missing.
He accused the PDP leadership of using the funds meant for the development of the country “to line their pockets”. “We would know those who went to universities, polytechnics and monotechnics and those who didn’t go to school”. They also stole monies meant to construct roads, build airports, hospitals.
“They caused the dollar to be far higher than the naira”. But when all the noise about my not having a certificate was going on, my cousin in NY called me up to say, what is all these we are hearing, your original certificates are with me here and I asked him to send them by the next flight.
“I want you all to vote Godwin Obaseki as governor, come September 10, for these works left undone to be completed”.
Mr. Obaseki who said 900 MW of electricity would soon be injected into Edo State on completion of the Azura Power Project, also promised to strengthen security and electricity supply to all nooks and crannies of the state to boost industrialisation plan of his administration if elected. I was in the PDP with Ize-Iyamu for years.
“People never knew that government is all about service before the coming of the APC government”.
“I don’t want to consider what Oshiomhole and APC has done in Edo already, because when you add that one you will even wonder where PDP will get the votes from”. Their government was all about sharing money against working for the generality of all.

Odigie-Oyegun said the current government led by Adams Oshiomole had done well for the people of the state and that it was important for a responsible party like the APC to continue the good work it had started.
