A prominent PDP leader in Edo State , Sen Yisa Braimoh who is a strong advocate for Asue Ighodalo’s candidacy said the choice of Guber Candidate by the opposition party in the state, All Progressive Congress APC was an afterthought decision which is bound to fail.
He asserted that the choice of Asue as the PDP standard bearer for the September governorship election is logical, sound, and exciting, pointing out that he meets all the requirements for good and effective leadership . With very intimidating credentials , uncommon Street credibility , and unprecedented popularity , Asue Ighodalo is clearly the best out of all the party candidates vying for election come Sept 2024.
Sen Braimoh holds the distinction of being the first Owan Clan indigene to represent the Edo North Senatorial district in the Senate.
Alongside other notable PDP leaders in the district, Sen. Braimoh’s statements reflect the collective views of the group.
Senator Braimoh made the statement separately at the headquarters of the six local governments in Edo North district during the inauguration of campaign committees across the district.
, Sen. Braimoh is confident that based on the outgoing governor’s commrnddle performance and Ighodalo’s pedigree as a suitable successor, the PDP will secure the governorship slot in September.
He further said it was the resolve of the party and the people of Edo North district to support the zoning of Edo state governorship seat to Edo central and also work in unison to deliver the party’s flag bearer.
Recall that the enlarged PDP Edo north leaders were the first Senatorial district in the state to support the zoning of the state Governorship seat to Edo central in the spirit of fairness and justice.
