The past achievements of All Progressives Congress (APC) governorship aspirant in Edo State, Dr Augustine Ojiezele will earn him victory in next year’s election in the state.
In a statement by his media aide, Hon Hamza Mohammed, he asserted that Ojiezele had been a committed party man who has contributed immensely to the growth of the APC.
Mohammed said, „As an Action Congress of Nigeria (ACN) member, he‘d been a strong pillar who contributed financially to the establishment of the party secretariats both at the ward, council and state levels (Ward 10, Ugboha, Esan South East local government area and Benin City).”
He also said that his boss singlehandedly bought power generating sets, and motorcycles for some residents at his ward as an empowerment programme, adding that the he took care of the welfare and allowances of the party officials at his personal expense. He said that this was further complemented by the provision of over 100 bags of rice as well as livestock for party members in the locality seasonally.
„Dr Augustine Ojiezele has also shown a great commitment to the APC party by taking responsibility for providing buses for transportation to convey members of his ward to all local and state party functions.
„On education and health, Dr Augustine Ojiezele has paid the WAEC enrolment fee for no fewer than 300 students and has given a non-refundable grant of N50,000 for over 600 active APC women members for trading in his ward/LGA. During COVID-19, he provided palliatives for the less privileged. Recently, he has assisted 215 persons in paying their medical bills for eye cataract operations.
„As a philanthropist he has given scholarship to well over 120 students in his community at Ugboha. And as a party leader he‘d gifted over 320 motorcycles to party members and his community. He also established rice mill factory Ugboha where he offers free milling services to rice farmers for their produce,“ Mohammed said.
