2023: Reps Member, Idahosa, Gets Diaspora Support For Re-election

A group under the auspices of Ovia Community in Rome, Italy, has called for on their people back at home in Ovia federal constituency of Edo State, to unite and support the re-election bid of Mr Dennis Idahosa, irrespective of their political affiliations.

The call was contained in a press statement by the group’s President, Elder Austin Osa-Adodo and made available to journalists in Benin City, Edo State on Sunday.

The statement said that the group arrived at the decision to support the incumbent representative of the Ovia federal constituency in the National Assembly (NASS) during the Igue Edohia celebration organised by Ovia Community in Rome, Italy.

Osa-Adodo noted that Ovia never had it so good in terms of developmental impact both at the State and federal levels until the emergence of Idahosa as a member of House of Representatives representing the federal constituency.

He stated that the lawmaker’s
impact were noticeable across the 33 wards that make up the federal constituency.

“It is for that reason we are calling on our fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters back home to support him by ensuring they mobilise totally for him to win the election scheduled for February 25.

“The need to support him to win is for him to continue with the positive development he has attracted to Ovia in the past three years.

“We are happy with him (Idahosa) and what he is doing in Ovia federal constituency and it’s the best we allow him to continue this wonderful job.

“We are not being spurred with anything but the developmental strides of the lawmaker that have opened all our eyes that Ovia had been denied of good governance in the past by those given the mandate to represent the people.

“We know most of us won’t be in Nigeria to cast our votes but we are capable of influencing votes from here in Rome,” he stated.
