The Edo State chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), said it has suspended its ongoing ward-to-ward campaigns across the state in solidarity with the ongoing nationwide protest against hunger and bad governance.

This was announced in a press release signed by the Director General of the Edo PDP gubernatorial campaign council, Hon. Mathew Iduoriyekemwen.

The party expressed its solidarity with the Nigerians in their struggle to end bad governance imposed on the masses by the APC-controlled federal government.

The 10-day nationwide protest tagged #EndBadGovernance, started today, Thursday, August 1, 2024, across the country.

The recent press release by the Edo PDP acknowledged the suffering of the Nigerian people and placed the blame on the APC-controlled federal government, which it described as “visionless and uncaring.”

The statement further expressed deep concern about the excruciating pains Nigerians have endured under the APC.

“In view of the imminent ten-day protest against hunger and pain occasioned by the visionless and uncaring APC administration, we, the PDP in Edo State are constrained to suspend our ongoing statewide campaign till further notice.

“This is our own modest show of solidarity with the pauperised Nigerian people,” the statement read in part
