Expectations are soaring, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. The immediate past senator representing Edo Central Senatorial District, Senator Monday Okpebholo, has been sworn in as the Executive Governor of Edo State. Since his inauguration, his nickname has evolved from “Akpakomiza” to “Akpakorescue,” and now to “Akpako Development,” reflecting his transformative leadership. His larger-than-life legacy at the Red Chambers is now making waves across Edo State as he embarks on a mission of progress and development.

Naturally, the question of who will fill his shoes has become a hot topic in Edo Central Senatorial District. After all, His Excellency, Senator Monday Okpebholo, not only broke barriers by becoming the first APC member to clinch the senatorial seat since the return to democracy in 1999, but he also established a winning streak for the party in the region. His tenure wasn’t just about making history—it was about setting a standard of performance that resonated deeply with the people. That legacy of excellence has now propelled him to the position of Executive Governor of Edo State, where he continues to lead with vision and purpose.

Prince Odi Okojie, the current lawmaker representing Esan North-East and Esan South-East Federal Constituency, has emerged as the clear favorite among the youths of Edo Central. Known for his dynamic leadership and results-oriented approach, Okojie has become a unifying force in the region. His achievements at the federal level, particularly in community development and youth empowerment, have positioned him as the ideal candidate to sustain the progressive agenda initiated by Governor Okpebholo.

Groups such as the Esan Youth Renaissance Forum and the Progressive Esan Vanguard have openly endorsed Prince Odi Okojie as their choice to represent Edo Central at the Senate. They cite his commitment to education, infrastructural development, and his ability to foster inclusivity as reasons for their unwavering support. “Prince Odi has shown us that leadership is about service. He understands our challenges and has been at the forefront of finding solutions,” said Ese Ehizogie, a youth leader in Irrua.

As the clamor for Prince Odi Okojie’s candidacy intensifies, it becomes evident that the Esan people are determined to continue the legacy of excellence established by Governor Monday Okpebholo. With Okojie in the Senate and Okpebholo at the helm as governor, Edo Central is poised for a new chapter of representation that promises to elevate the region to greater heights.

The stage is set, and the Esan people have spoken: Prince Odi Okojie is their choice to keep the flame of progress burning.
