Edo State Governor, Monday Okpebholo, on Thursday mocked Osun State Governor, Ademola Adeleke, over his love for dancing, while urging voters to collect money from political opponents but vote for the All Progressives Congress in the August 15 governorship election.Okpebholo spoke at an APC campaign rally in support of the party’s governorship candidate, Bola Oyebamiji, popularly known as “Ambo.” Kogi State Governor, Ahmed Usman Ododo, was also in attendance.The Edo governor repeatedly ridiculed Adeleke’s dancing, claiming it reflected poor leadership and distracted him from governance.“Before somebody signs paper, he will dance. Are you not tired? For four years, this man has been dancing. Before he takes breakfast, before he drinks tea, he will dance,” Okpebholo told supporters.Okpebholo further linked Adeleke to former Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, saying both should be rejected by voters.“That man is Obaseki’s friend. You know we kicked Obaseki out of Edo. So, we have to kick his friend out of this place too. A lot of people ‘chopped’ Obaseki’s money, but they never voted for him,” he added.Addressing allegations that the Accord Party was distributing money to voters ahead of the election, Okpebholo advised supporters to collect the cash but vote for the APC candidate instead.“If they bring money, ‘chop’ that money from them, but don’t vote for them. They said they have money to spend, is that not so? Just collect the money, keep it in your pocket,” he said.Related NewsMisplaced spending priorities behind Bayelsa’s woes — PDP chairmanOsun poll: ICPC rallies against vote-buying, deploys operatives to 30 LGsEFCC action against Osun threatens democracy, says MakindeCampaigning for Oyebamiji, the governor described the APC candidate as the leader Osun needed, promising better infrastructure if elected.He also criticised the condition of roads in the state, saying, “The road I was passing, my tyre was shaking. I said, is it the dancing road or the dancing governor’s road?”He concluded by asking the crowd to support the APC at the polls.“Osun, are we ready to make a change? Are we ready to say bye-bye to dancing?” he asked to cheers from supporters.𝐎𝐤𝐩𝐞𝐛𝐡𝐨𝐥𝐨 𝐌𝐨𝐜𝐤𝐬 𝐀𝐝𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐤𝐞’𝐬 𝐃𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐧𝐠, 𝐔𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐬 𝐎𝐬𝐮𝐧 𝐕𝐨𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐓𝐨 𝐓𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐑𝐢𝐯𝐚𝐥𝐬’ 𝐂𝐚𝐬𝐡, 𝐕𝐨𝐭𝐞 𝐀𝐏𝐂Credit: X | manlikesea—Follow us for more breaking news and videospic.twitter.com/JXBm7FLq7v— Punch Newspapers (@MobilePunch)August 6, 2026 Okpebholo spoke at an APC campaign rally in support of the party’s governorship candidate, Bola Oyebamiji, popularly known as “Ambo.” Kogi State Governor, Ahmed Usman Ododo, was also in attendance.The Edo governor repeatedly ridiculed Adeleke’s dancing, claiming it reflected poor leadership and distracted him from governance.“Before somebody signs paper, he will dance.
