Former Deputy Speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly, Hon Paul Ohombamu, has advocated for what he calls ‘equity of recognition’ to be the primary consideration in determining the next governor of Edo State.

He said that Senator Monday Okpebholo, a leading governorship aspirant of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from Edo Central Senatorial District, is the antidote to the political challenges in the forthcoming Edo governorship election later this year.

Ohombamu, the spokesperson for Sen. Monday Okpebholo’s Campaign Organization, shared his perspective on the Channels TV programme, ‘Politics Today’, which was monitored by our correspondent in Benin City, the capital of Edo state.

He criticises the efforts of other regions to seize power, labelling them as ‘errant,’ noting that parties like the Labour Party (LP) and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are also turning to Edo Central to select their candidates.

He said, “Various people have one plan or the other but the tenable permutation is the one that deals with equity of recognition, all other permutations are wayward. They call it zoning, but I call it equity of recognition and it is the only way to go now and you see other parties whether PDP, LP are all going that direction.

“In Edo state, whether Edo South, Central or Edo North, we are from the same source, value and volume. No one is bigger in terms of potency than the others, of course, we talk of majority, yes, Edo South has the majority but I quarrel with my brothers who have the effrontery to say Edo Central is not equal to Edo South gives me the impression that Edo South people now belongs to the anti-diluvia concept of democracy that championed in the days of Plato which believes in the unequal people but I tell you if you take Edo central out of Edo state it will not be complete.

“Edo South has had its own historical possibility. By this year; the second eight years will be completed to make it sixteen years. Oshiomhole, our supreme leader from Edo North, did eight years, so it is time for Edo Central.

Continuing he added, “ As we speak, politics in Edo state is highly infected and the only antibiotic now is governorship to Edo central people and the drug itself is Senator Monday Okpebholo , anywhere you go presently in Edo State is Monday Okpebholo.

“So, what i’m basically saying is that for Edo North and Edo South coming on board will be anachronistic and having it again will be excess and the cure for excess is distribution and distribution undue excess”.
