The Edo State Governor, Mr. Godwin Obaseki, has expressed confidence that with the National Chairman of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Sen. Dr. Iyorchia Ayu, the party will return to power in 2023.<\/p>\n
Obaseki, at a dinner in honour of the National Chairman at the Government House, Benin City, promised to work with the party\u2019s leadership to ensure that the PDP produces the country\u2019s next president in the forthcoming general elections.<\/p>\n
The governor noted, \u201cWe are glad to have you in Edo and thank you for the show of love. We are not going anywhere; we are here to help you transform and transmit the PDP into the future.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe know the challenges you face. Trust us, we are here to support you and will be with you. By the grace of God, you will succeed in producing the next president of our great country.\u201d<\/p>\n
Obaseki charged, \u201cThe past is gone, let us focus on the future. You just told us how you participated in forming this party. The politics that we played in 1999 will not be the same now. The technology in 1999 is not as relevant as the technology of today.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cIn 1999, the heart of the whole world depended on mineral resources, but today, the world depends on human capacity and technology. It\u2019s a different world and Edo is spearheading that transition of our politics,\u201d he noted<\/p>\n
On his part, Iyorchia Ayu commended the governor for his developmental strides across all sectors of the state, hailing him for the successes recorded in the state\u2019s PDP e-registration exercise.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
