Today, Sunday, 6th April, 2025, High Chief Dr. Abudu Ugbesia, JP, the Onagbonsoboleamen of Esanland, the Chairman, Edo state Traditional Medicines Board, hosted the All Progressives Congress, APC, members of Ward one in Esan Central Local Government, ECLG, area of Edo state, on the occasion of the victory of Senator Monday Okpebholo, the governor of Edo state, and the All Progressives Congress, APC, victory at the Election Petition Tribunal.
Addressing the mammoth crowd, that gathered in his compound, Ibore-Irrua, Chief Ugbesia said; "...I invited you to join me in celebrating the victory of Senator Monday Okpebholo at the Election Petition Tribunal. I am happy that Senator Okpebholo is the governor of Edo state today, and he is proving to us that he means business, especially by his fixing the Benin/Auchi road, the reinstatement of Ambrose Alli University staff that were maliciously relieved of their appointments by former governor Obaseki..."
"I am particularly happy, because, some people were against an Esan man emerging as the governor of Edo state, but as God will have it, Senator Monday Okpebholo is the governor today, otherwise, it would have been very difficult for an Esan man to emerge as a governor in this state".
Continuing, High Chief Abudu, commended the Ojirrua of Irrua, and Okaijesan of Esanland His Royal Majesty, Alh. W. O Momodu II, JP, CON, for standing firmly behind Senator Okpebholo, all through the electioneering period to date, saying; the Okaijesan insisted that, an Esan man, from Irrua, will be the governor of Edo state, in his lifetime.
