As part of his empowerment efforts to support Dr Asue Ighodalo in the Governorship election, an Edo-born, American-based surgeon, Dr. Uyi Igbinadolor, has moved his Market Women Money Empowerment across the three Senatorial Districts, with ongoing empowerment.

Dr Igbinadolor, who supported the Chairman, Oredo Local Government Area, Dr Tom Obaseki, to carry out this latest drive, stated that the empowerment and distribution of market women’s money is intended to help traders during these difficult times.

In his remarks, Dr Obaseki said: “We are in difficult circumstances in Nigeria, and one of your son, who is based in America has decided to help women in several markets throughout the state.”

The council boss, who spoke at Uwa Market in Oredo LGA, said: “This money comes from your son, Dr. Uyi Igbinadolor, who is angry with the level of hunger and suffering that you are going through, has decided to help 100 market women with N10,000 each for you to add to your businesses.

“I should beg all Edo Women not to vote for those who are making life difficult for us in Nigeria. Don’t vote for APC. APC has caused problems in Nigeria. We need people like Asue Ighodalo in PDP to step in and help us. Everyone should vote for the PDP so that we can have cheap food and security in our community.”

While thanking Igbinadolor for empowering hundreds of women, the Oredo Council boss, encouraged the beneficiaries to use the money for the intended purpose.

He assured that when the PDP candidate, Asue Ighodalo wins the governorship election, Dr. Igbinadolor will provide additional support to women and traders.

He said: “I admonish you all to go tell the other women. Everyone should vote for Asue Ighodalo so that the market women empowerment fund can continue.”
