Therefore, when this power is blatantly seized from the people, it is not just a tragedy but a travesty of democracy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cRegrettably, the outcome of the September 21st governorship election appears to have daunted the spirit of many Edo people who feel powerless in the face of the brute force of the institutions that are supposed to protect them. It is, therefore, understandable that many people feel sad and aggrieved.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut in the midst of this despair, I am urging all my fellow Edo citizens to maintain calm and not resort to violence and destruction of property in spite of this provocation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPeace and justice will always win in the end, and this is my prescription to all the good people of Edo State who feel vexed and violated at this time.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Speaking further, Obaseki claimed that impunity and disregard for the electoral process was displayed during the election, which raises concerns for many election observers.<\/p>\n<p>He added. \u201cClearly, it is obvious to the least discerning the amount of impunity and reckless disregard for processes and law that was displayed in this gubernatorial election.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn a democracy, there are safeguards for addressing grievances, and we hope that those affected will seek resolution for this blatant disregard of law and process.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWith this in mind, I implore all Edo people to go about their lawful businesses and rest assured of the commitment of our government to your wellbeing and security.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Obaseki stated that the election was an anathema to the ideals of democracy and the principles of fair and credible election.
