The All Progressives Congress (APC) has heartily congratulated the Executive Governor of Edo State, Senator Monday Okpebholo, his Deputy, Dennis Idahosa, and the entire electorate on the judgement of the Edo State Governorship Election Tribunal, affirming their electoral victory.
APC, in the statement by Felix Morka, the party’s National Publicity Secretary, claimed that the landmark judgement had validated the overwhelming support of the Edo State electorate for APC’s candidate in the September 21, 2024, gubernatorial election.
The national leadership further noted that the well-deserved victory will energize Governor Okpebholo, who is already saturating the state with good governance and dividends of democracy, urging the Governor to do even more for the Edo electorate.
While insisting that the victory at the tribunal also stood as an affirmation of the popular will of the good people of Edo State, the ruling party, noted: “We applaud the judiciary for its well reasoned decision in the matter, underscoring its independence, professionalism and commitment to strengthening democracy in our country.
“Our great party salutes the good people of Edo State for their massive support of our party during the past election, and for their patience and sustained support through the litigation.
“Confident that this well-deserved victory will further energize Governor Okpebholo, who is already saturating the state with good governance and dividends of democracy, we urge the Governor to do even more for the Edo electorate, and translate President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Agenda into meaningful benefits for all in the state.
We remain thankful to President Tinubu, our visionary and dogged achiever, for his exceptional leadership of our great party,” the statement read.
