Edo 2024: Group urges APC Zonal organising secretary to participate in race

The Edo State branch of the Renewed Hope Ambassadors Monday urged the All Progressives Congress (APC) South South Zonal Organising Secretary, Dr. Blessing Agbomhere, to run for the party’s governorship ticket in the state.

The committee stated that its decision was made after reviewing Agbomhere’s contributions to the APC’s performance in the 2023 Presidential, National, and State Assembly Elections.

The group said in a statement signed by its coordinator, Dr. Richard Uwaifo, that Agbomhere has the academic capacity and track record to bring Edo State back on track after seven years of the outgoing governor’s tyrannical, visionless, and purposeless administration.

The panel also agreed that Edo State required a candidate with a good education, inventive and creative leadership charisma, and the ability to promote the state in all domains, all of which Agbomhere possesses.
They claimed that the Comrade Adams Oshiomhole administration set the state on a road of economic success and decent governance through enormous infrastructure development and human capital development, but that the trajectory was stopped short by the arrival of the Obaseki – Shuaibu administration.

They did, however, add that the people of Edo will greet and welcome Blessing Agbomhere with open arms, knowing that he is the best material for rebuilding the state.

While groups and important members of society are clamoring for Agbomhere to come and serve the state, it has yet to be revealed whether he has embraced their clarion call to serve.
