Edo State Governor, Senator Monday Okpebholo has inaugurated a door-to-door campaign team for the election of All Progressive Congress (APC) candidate in the August 16, 2025 Senatorial election in Edo Central Senatorial District, Hon. Joe Ikpea.
The Governor who addressed the team at the weekend in Uromi urged the youths to support the candidate of the APC, Hon. Ikpea, and advised them never to trust the candidates of other political parties.
He noted that the Senatorial elections are the first major test for the youths, as it presents an opportunity to show results and prove their political relevance.
Okpebholo said Edo is enjoying real development under his leadership as the Governor of the State. He added that as the people embraced light, darkness disappeared.
“This is the time to drive door-to-door campaigns for APC candidates. We are serious about giving President Bola Ahmed Tinubu 2.5 million votes during 2027 presidential elections.
“For the election coming up on the 16th of this month, APC will win the entire five local government areas in Edo Central. We will win five out of five. We are not taking anything for granted.
“The opposition was in power for many years, yet our people suffered from underdevelopment and infrastructural decay. No schools. No road. No electricity and the basic necessities of life are not there for Edo people.
“But today, under my administration, the difference is clear, and our work has shown our seriousness to improve the lives of Edo people,” he said.
The leader of All Progressive Congress (APC), Edo Central Senatorial District, Gen. Cecil Esekhaigbe (rtd) called on the youths to rally round the APC candidate in the Senatorial election coming up on the 16th of August 2025 in ensuring that the party wins.
