EDO 2020: APGA’S FLAG BEARER PROMISES TO PUT EDO IN ‘SAFE HANDS’
 |
| Engr. Sebastian Iyere |
The race to determine who
will occupy the Osadebey Avenue, as the Edo State seat of power is called,
received a major boost Thursday at emergence of Engr. Sebastian Iyere, an
Anglican Reverend.
He received the majority votes
cast to beat his opponents in the indirect primary gubernatorial primaries of
the All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, which took place at the Edo Youths
House, Benin City, the Edo State capital.
The well travelled engineer
had previously indicated interest to run on the platform of African Democratic,
ADC, but the lingering intra-party crisis within the party had made him to
pitch his tent with APGA through which he hopes to deliver good governance
anchored on progressive leadership to the people of Edo State.
“I am particularly humbled
by the overwhelming support from various political groups and particularly the
orderly manner APGA’s national leadership conducted the exercise,” he said,
feeling elated. Continuing, he added, “While I appreciate the mileage thus far,
I am aware there is a lot more work to be done. For this reason, we will be
reaching out to all the Edo stakeholders in the Edo rebirth project, as seek partnership
with all concerned Edo sons and daughters on this mission to put Edo state in
safe hands.
“Please permit me to thank
Edo youths and women who have been working tirelessly to ensure Edo people are
no longer taken for granted and that quality is not compromised. You rock! Your
decision is right! I am ready to do your bid!”
