All Progressives Congress (APC) aspirant in the just concluded governorship primaries in Edo State, Dr. Blessing Agbomhere, has urged former governor now Senator, Adams Oshiomhole; minister of Niger Delta Affairs, Hon. Abubakar Momoh; and Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu to work for the APC candidate Senator Monday Okpebholo to emerge victorious in the September election.

Agbomhere also urged General Cecil Esekhaigbe; Rt. Hon. Pius Odubu; Hon. Dekeri Anamero; Edo state chairman of the APC, Caliphat Jarret Tenebe; and Secretary of Edo APC, Chief Lawrence Okah.
The former aspirant said this in a statement wherein he conceded defeat and congratulated Senator Okpebholo on his emergence as the party’s candidate for the September 2024 polls.
In his congratulatory message, Agbomhere said Okpebholo’s nomination reflects the resolve of Edo people to produce a credible and sellable candidate that can be trusted to deliver good governance.

Agbomhere, the immediate past South South zonal organising secretary of the APC, said Okpebholo humility and sincerity of purpose shows he has the people of the state at heart and will stop at nothing to ensure a better life for them.

He added that Okpebolo’s nomination is victory for all Edo people who have been yearning for a credible and just leader that can drive the developmental agenda of the APC family to secure a better life for Edo people.

“Congratulations to All Members and Leaders of the All Progressives Congress on the emergence of our own, Senator Monday Okpebholo as the Candidate of the All Progressives Congress, Edo State.

“The emergence of SMO also known as Akpakomiza is a testament to the resolve of Edo APC family to enthrone internal party democracy which has now produced a credible, capable and sellable candidate that can be trusted to ensure that Edo people are lifted our of the present penury that they find themselves in, occasioned by the purposeless and vision-less PDP administration in the state.” the congratulatory message read in part.

Agbomhere also commended President Bola Tinubu and the national chairman of the APC, Alhaji Abdullahi Umar Ganduje for standing firm for free and fair primaries in Edo State.

He said the transparent process adopted in conducting the primaries ensured a purpose-driven and well respected candidate with integrity is produced.

The APC leader therefore admonishes all party faithful in the state, all other aspirants, women, youths, traditional rulers, religious leaders, and all Edo people including former governor, Comrade Senator Adams Oshiomhole, leaders and statesmen across the country to join hands with Senator Okpebholo to ensure that the party wins the Guber elections come September 2024.
