APC determined to reclaim Edo – Ganduje

The National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress, Abdullahi Ganduje, and a former National Chairman of the APC, Senator Adams Oshiomole, said they are determined to reclaim Edo State.

Ganduje who stated this during a meeting with Edo State Stakeholders late Monday night, insisted that the state is an APC state.

The Independent National Electoral Commission has fixed September 21, 2024, for the Edo State governorship election.

According to a schedule of activities for the election released by the APC, the sale of nomination and expression of interest and delegates forms that commenced last week Wednesday will end on January 29.

The APC will elect its candidate for the governorship race at a primary election to be held on February 17.

Ganduje said, “Edo is an APC state. Now we have to take Edo back. We have only one state from the South-South for the greatest party in Africa, it’s not acceptable. We were able to get only Cross River State after crossing so many rivers, we succeeded in getting Cross River State. But Edo State, we must get it.”

The APC national chairman declared that it would not be business as usual, adding that the party is a progressive party with clear-cut objectives.

He added, “APC have to improve there internal democracy – we have to deepen and widen it. We need to understand the party and its manifesto…its rules and regulations, and also understand its philosophy.
