FORMER Edo State Governor and Senator representing Edo North Senatorial District in the National Assembly, Adams Oshiomhole, attended the swearing of the Edo governorship primary election committee.
The inauguration of the seven-man Committee led by Governor Hope Uzodinma of Imo State took place on Thursday at the National Secretariat of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Abuja.
The swearing ceremony, conducted by the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, was also attended by members of the National Working Committee (NWC).
Newsextra24 reports that the APC flagbearer is expected to emerge on Saturday before the September 22 Edo governorship election.
Speaking with reporters after the event, Oshiomhole said he attended the event because he is a stakeholder in the state and to support the committee.
The former APC National Chairman expressed his confidence in the party’s victory in the upcoming governorship election during the inauguration.
When questioned about the reason behind his assurance, Oshiomhole stated that the people of Edo are weary of the PDP and are eagerly anticipating the return of the party to governance in the state.
