Senator Monday Okpebholo secured a victory in the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election for the Edo State governorship, scheduled for September 2024.
The announcement came after the conclusion of the primary, where Okpebholo garnered significant support from party members.
Senator Okpebholo emerged as the winner of the APC primary election with a total of 12,433 votes.
His victory positions him as the official APC candidate for the upcoming governorship election in Edo State.
Okpebholo’s victory sets the stage for his candidacy in the governorship election.
The APC primary was held last weekend, but it wasn’t concluded, according to the party.
The party had drafted Gover Bassey Otu of Cross River state to complete the process after his Imo state counterpart, Senator Hope Uzodimma, started it.
