A Call for Prince Odi Okojie to Succeed Senator Monday Okpebholo in the Senate
Your Excellency,
Governor Monday Okpebholo,
Executive Governor of Edo State,
Benin City, Edo State.
Dear Governor,
On behalf of the Esan APC Advocacy Group, we extend our heartfelt congratulations to you on your successful swearing-in as the Executive Governor of Edo State. This significant achievement is a testament to your dedication, hard work, and the overwhelming trust that the people of Edo State have placed in your leadership. We have no doubt that your tenure will usher in a new era of progress and development across the state.
As you embark on this transformative journey as governor, we recognize that your ascension leaves a consequential vacancy in the Senate seat representing Edo Central Senatorial District. We believe that this moment presents an opportunity to sustain the remarkable legacy of progress and effective representation you established. In light of this, we respectfully call on you to support Hon. Prince Odi Okojie as your worthy successor in the Senate.
Prince Odi Okojie consistently demonstrates excellence in legislative service. In the House of Representatives, he has earned a reputation for delivering impactful motions and implementing projects that touch the lives of his constituents. His legislative priorities in infrastructure, education, and healthcare continue to drive tangible progress, positioning him as a beacon of hope for our people.
Moreover, Prince Okojie’s keen understanding of governance, coupled with his leadership acumen, makes him well-suited to continue advocating for the interests of Edo Central at the National Assembly.
Prince Okojie’s dedication to the APC is evident in his unwavering support for the party’s principles and your gubernatorial campaign. He has played a vital role in consolidating the party’s influence in Edo Central and beyond, showcasing his loyalty and commitment to the APC’s vision of progress for Edo State and Nigeria at large.
In addition to Prince Okojie’s personal merits, we recognize the immense value his wife, Mercy Johnson Okojie, brings to the table. As a celebrated actress and philanthropist, Mercy has used her platform to promote the ideals of the APC, contributing significantly to the party’s visibility and acceptance nationwide. Together, they represent a dynamic partnership that bolsters the APC’s appeal and credibility.
Your Excellency, it is worth noting that since the return to democracy in 1999, Esan North-East, has not produced a senator. Supporting Prince Okojie to assume this role would correct this historical imbalance, ensuring equitable representation and unity within the district.
Your tenure in the Senate has been characterized by visionary leadership and pragmatic solutions to the challenges facing Edo Central. Prince Odi Okojie’s proven track record aligns with your values and ensures a seamless continuation of your legacy.
We, therefore, urge you to lend your support to Prince Okojie’s candidacy. His dedication, competence, and understanding of governance make him the ideal successor to advance the cause of our people.
Thank you for your consideration, and we pray for continued wisdom and grace as you lead Edo State into a brighter future.
Yours sincerely,
Dr. Matthew Oseghale
Chairman, Esan APC Advocacy Group
