Edo Guber: Ganduje congratulates Idahosa on emergence as APC flag bearer
Abdullahi Ganduje, the national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), has congratulated Rep. Dennis Idahosa (APC-Edo) on his emergence as the party’s Edo governorship candidate.
Mr Ganduje said this in a statement by Edwin Olofo, his chief press secretary, on Sunday in Abuja.
He also commended Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo, who was the chairman of the APC Edo governorship primary election and appeal committee, for conducting a credible primary election.
Mr Ganduje urged Mr Idahosa to carry other aspirants along, saying this was critical to ensure the party’s victory at the September 21 Edo governorship election.
“At this point, I want to call on all the aspirants to bury the hatchet and work for the interest of the party so that our party will emerge victorious,” he said.
Mr Ganduje also commended the state APC stakeholders and assured them that the party would do everything possible to ensure that Edo was delivered.
The 43-year-old Idahosa scored 40,483 votes to defeat other aspirants at Saturday’s primaries in Benin.
