On the subject of godfatherism, Onolememen asserts that, within the APC, there is a sense of unity, despite individuals coming from different senatorial districts. He emphasizes the need to understand and resolve differences amicably, with a commitment to accepting the party’s ultimate decision.

Regarding his distinct offerings to the people of Edo, Onolememen mentions a focus on human and infrastructural development, emphasizing the critical role these play in fostering happiness and prosperity. He pledges to prioritize areas where the state is lagging behind and promises inclusivity during the campaign.

On the issue of stepping down for other aspirants, Onolememen suggests that the decision would depend on the circumstances, emphasizing the importance of fairness and merit in such considerations.

Despite his history as a foundation member of the PDP, Onolememen explains his move to the APC, citing a disagreement within the PDP during a senatorial primary. He highlights the camaraderie among individuals in both parties and expresses satisfaction with consultations across the senatorial districts.

In conclusion, Onolememen, known for his actions more than his words, affirms his visibility at the grassroots and assures that, with his wealth of experience and passion for the people, he is ready to contribute to Edo State’s development if given the opportunity to serve as governor.
