Sabongidda-Ora — The Speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly, Rt. Hon. Blessing Agbebaku, has urged his Owan West constituents to retain the Speakership for the area, citing the benefits it attracts to the local government.
The Speaker made the appeal on Saturday in Sabongidda-Ora, headquarters of Owan West LGA, while formally declaring his intention to seek a third term in the Edo State House of Assembly.
“I am here to tell the people of Owan West that the work they sent me to do is not yet finished,” Agbebaku said. “We should not lose the Speakership because of the benefits it brings to our people.”
He anchored his re-election bid on the need to complete outstanding assignments and to ensure Owan West retains the Speakership.
The declaration took place at the APC LGA Secretariat, where he was received by the party chairman, Hon. Frank David, and other executives.
Agbebaku thanked the APC executives in Owan West for their role in the success of recent endorsement events.
He also commended party chieftain High Chief Lucky Ohimai, popularly known as Tarex, for his contributions to the APC in Owan West. “I want to thank my brother, High Chief Lucky Ohimai, for all he is doing for the party. We will continue to work together for the development of Owan West,” he said.
The Speaker later presented his scorecard, listing key projects executed during his tenure.
Dignitaries at the event included Prof. Julius Ihonvbere, Mike Ohio-Ezomo, Joe Ekpekhio, Joy Ohonyon, Frank David, and Inumidun Idehen, among others.
