Godwin Obaseki, governor of Edo, has said the Labour Party applied too late for the use of the ogbemudia stadium which was why approval was not granted for the presidential campaign rally
Before the campaign rally, supporters of Obi had criticised the decision of the Edo state government to decline the request of the LP to use the stadium for its rally.
Owing to the development, the venue of the rally was moved to the Baptist convention ground, Benin.
The Edo governor added that there are some arrangements that need to be put in place before the stadium can be used for a campaign rally.
