Imasuangbon Takes Atiku Campaign To Edo Villages, Distributes Foodstuff

A chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party in Edo State, Barr. Kenneth Imasuangbon, has begun serious campaigns for the presidential candidate of the party, Alhaji Atiku Abubakar and his running mate, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa, in the state.

Imsuangbon, who is popularly known as the  ‘Rice man’ used to his annual distribution of rice to the poor and needy to preach about the good things the government of Atiku would bring to Nigerians.

He visited orphanages, hospitals and several villages to distribute thousands bags of rice to the poor.

He told the people to vote out the ruling All Progressives Congress for inflicting pains and suffering on the masses.

The ‘Rice man’, who educated the people on the need to collect their PVCs, said the task to sack the APC must be achieved.

The PDP chieftain said Atiku had promised to provide $10bn for youth empowerment, revive the refineries, ensure adequate power supply and secure the country.

Speaking in an interview shortly after he started the annual free rice distribution in his locality, Ewohimi, Esan South East local government area, he said; “ We are reaching out to over 50,000 persons in this year’s distribution of rice. Edo is ready for the Atiku/Okowa presidency, we must come out en mass and vote for the ‘unifier’.

“Besides, we will soon embark on door to door campaigns in villages across the state. Our target is to get 80 percent of the votes in Edo.”

In Uhunwonde, Orhionmwon and Ikpoba Okha local government  areas of the state,  the former governorship aspirant told the surging crowd that when Atiku becomes president “by the grace of God” hunger and poverty would be defeated.

A jubilant crowd scrambled to get the bags of rice and shouts of “rice man” rent the air as they promised to vote the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar and  Ifeanyi Okowa.

One of the beneficiaries,  Imafidon Ighomaye, said, “We are happy with Imansuagbon for coming to share rice every year. He has shown us love and for that my entire family will vote for Atiku and the PDP come the 2023 presidential election.”
