Signs
that all may not be well with the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) campaign
machinery is in the air. The reason, as
The ExposeNews found out is not far-fetched: acute shortage of cash! The ExposeNews correspondents traveled from
Okpella to Auchi, through Uromi, Ekpoma, Iruekpen, Ehor, Benin-City, Ovia,
right down to Okada town, and consistent were the billboards of the All
Progressive Congress (APC) candidates Godwin Obaseki and Honorable Phillip
Shuaibu. Apparently, the conclusion
boiled down to lack of money. Otherwise,
the PDP, a showy body of money bags can’t afford to restrict splash of money on
campaign billboards.
Our
Correspondents gathered that while Comrade Oshiomole is believed to be
utilizing power of State funds to deliver his proteges, the PDP is finding it
difficult to raise the much needed cash to prosecute the campaign. This may
well spell trouble for them at the September 10, polls. But it remains to be seen whether there would
be a last minute surprise.
