"On behalf of the leadership and members of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Edo State Chapter, we pray that Almighty Allah accepts our sacrifices and prayers, blesses our homes with peace and joy, grants our dear State and nation greater progress, and bestows upon us continued unity and prosperity."

“Every child deserves love, quality education, healthcare, protection and the opportunity to dream without limitations. "We must continue to create an environment where no child is left behind and where the voices, rights and wellbeing of children remain a priority.”

Instead, they displayed kangaroo results from those bent on imposing him on Edo South Senatorial District."

"The 11 year old young man who was swept away by flooding on that fateful day, was the reason I raised this alert that people must be conscious of their environment.
