Going further, she said, “I am not perplexed by those singing the song of illegality. I have documents to prove that I was legally elected. My concern is to ensure that Labour Party wins the elections in Edo State and to deliver the state for Peter Obi.

“Labour Party in Edo State remains one united family that is fighting a just course; for the emancipation of Edo people in particular and Nigeria in general. Vote for all Labour Party candidates in the coming elections so that at the end of the day, we shall be singing the song of emancipation.”

She challenged those alleging that she stands disqualified having earlier participated in a similar primaries of her former party, the All Progressives Congress (APC), to come forth with evidence to back up their claims, adding that having noticed the illegalities being perpetrated in the APC she abstained from the party’s primaries and instructed all her supporters to do same.
