Benin Royal Father, Oba Ewuare II, has praised the governorship candidate of the African Democratic Congress (ADC), for daring to challenge all the governorship candidates in the forthcoming election in the state for a political debate, saying it was a move in the right direction.
Oba Ewuare II, gave the commendation while receiving the governorship candidate of the ADC who paid him a courtesy call in his palace in Benin City.
The Oba also used the medium to pray for her that God and the ancestors should bless and grant her heart’s desires
Earlier, Mabel Oboh, said she was at the Benin Palace to seek his royal blessings and to surrender herself to the service of the people and make the state great again, if elected as the governor of the state.
But shortly after the meeting with the monarch, Mabel Oboh said it was a great day for her and her party to have been recognised by the monarch for calling for a debate with the major political gladiators in the state.
“Today is a great honour to myself and for the African Democratic Congress. We have come to Edo State to stay, to change the crisis in Edo state and I am so grateful that the monarch has recognised the change, the peace we want to bring to Edo State.
‘The fact that the Oba singled our party out, is an honour and a great honour to us and we promised as a servant of the people, we are going to make Edo very proud.
“We are going to change the narrative of Edo State, we are going to take hunger out of Edo State, we are going to make Edo people smile again”, she added.
