”Contest ?
I am an 83 years old Elder Statesman and Senior Citizen of Nigeria .
I am unemployed and not employable.
I am not appointable .
I am virtually ineligible to contest any political position in this country .
I am simply motivated and driven to do what is right for the Edo North polity , but in particular for my Owan people who greatly supported me overwhelmingly to be elected as the first and ( still ) the only Senator of the Federal Republic of Nigeria to have emerged from the Owan Clan , 20 years ago , in 2007 !!!
20 years ago , Kulisha !
It is much more than depressing for me to cope with the reality that 20 years after , and still counting , the Owan Clan is yet to produce another Senator !
What justification is there for a Clan which presently boasts of both the Majority Leader of HOR and Hon Speaker of the EDHA NOT to vie for the 2027 Senate seat ???
Absolutely none .”
Going by INEC scheduled activities, ,party primaries are slated for mid-year, where the party are expected to present their candidates to the electorate
