In a significant development from Edo State, the police have detained Reverend Olu Martins, the Deputy Director of Media for the PDP’s gubernatorial campaign, under charges of making incendiary remarks. Commissioner of Police Funsho Adegboye confirmed the arrest on June 11, detailing that the action was taken to prevent any potential escalation of violence ahead of the elections.

SEE ALSO: Representatives are seeking a six-year term for the president, was with rotation among different zones.

Reverend Martins was reportedly taken into custody following a statement he made in a widely circulated video, which authorities believe could disrupt the peace during the election period. “The arrest should serve as a warning to others who might consider similar actions,” Commissioner Adegboye stated during a press briefing in Benin, the state capital.

The police emphasize the need for a peaceful and inspiring election process, which should educate and motivate future political leaders rather than create unrest or promote unlawful behaviors. “Our commitment is to uphold the law decisively, ensuring that all political activities conform to our legal and electoral guidelines,” added Adegboye.

In related news, tensions between Governor Godwin Obaseki and the Oba of Benin persist over the governance of local youth leaders, known as Okaigheles. Despite the Oba of Benin’s insistence on their integral role within the traditional administrative framework, the state government maintains a ban to enhance security across the region.

As the political atmosphere in Edo State continues to heat up, authorities are calling on all participants to engage responsibly and lawfully, ensuring a fair and peaceful electoral process.
