The All Progressives Congress (APC) campaign train stormed Ekpon in Igueben Local Government Area with a fiery message of change, as gubernatorial candidate Senator Monday Okpebholo led the charge, promising nothing short of a complete transformation of the community.
In a powerful address to an electrified crowd, Senator Mathew Uroghide, the Director-General of the campaign, painted Okpebholo as the beacon of hope that Edo State desperately needs. Uroghide urged the people of Ekpon to throw their full weight behind the APC candidates, describing them as tireless workers who have proven their dedication to the people across their respective zones.
Echoing this call for change, deputy gubernatorial candidate Hon. Dennis Idahosa shared a glimpse of the future under Okpebholo’s leadership. “What my principal endured growing up, we will never allow the people of Edo to suffer,” Idahosa declared with conviction. He outlined a bold plan that includes empowering Edo’s youth, securing farmlands, reconstructing the Uromi-Agbor road with federal assistance, and renovating the healthcare facilities in Ekpon.
Senator Okpebholo, visibly moved by the outpouring of support, expressed heartfelt gratitude to the people of Ekpon for their backing in the last election, which saw him rise to the Senate. “I have come again, please support me,” he passionately appealed. Okpebholo wasted no time in highlighting his achievements in the Senate, including securing federal commitment to the long-awaited Benin-Auchi road project. He also took direct aim at the current administration, vowing to tackle Edo’s security challenges and resurrect the neglected Ekpon Grammar School—an institution left to decay under Governor Godwin Obaseki’s watch.
But Okpebholo’s promises didn’t end there. He pledged to build a new market in Ekpon, restore electricity, and provide clean, potable water to the community. His message was clear: the people of Ekpon will see real, tangible benefits for their loyalty and support when he takes the helm as governor.
As the APC campaign gains momentum, Ekpon is now at the center of a political storm that promises to reshape the future of Edo State. With Okpebholo at the forefront, the people of Ekpon are being called to embrace a vision of transformation, one that promises to lift their community out of neglect and into an era of progress and prosperity.
