All Progressives Congress (APC) National Chairman, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, has expressed confidence that the party will emerge victorious in the upcoming Edo governorship election on September 21.
Ganduje stated that a robust political machinery has been established to ensure a resounding win for the party’s candidate, describing the campaign as being in “high spirit.”
Ganduje said, ” I believe our campaign is in high spirit, we are getting ready for that election and we believe we will be able to recover our state.
”This is because it was an APC state but because of internal bubbles, we lost it to PDP but we are sure we will recover that state.
”For Ondo State, it’s already an APC state and when the former Governor died, he left a number of problems,but we were able to resolve those issues.
Ganduje emphasized the importance of winning Edo, which would increase the party’s state tally to 21, and expressed optimism about the November election in Ondo, already an APC stronghold.
Ganduje said, ”If we win Edo, we will be getting an additional state for the party. It will be 21 states out of 36.
“Next year, there will be Anambra, which has been a state governed by APGA for many years, but we have introduced a new scheme.
”The North, South-East political zones are all claiming that they have been marginalised.
”The South-East geopolitical zone is saying the same thing. But what we are telling them is that the marginalisation has been created by them.
“How can you have five states ruled by four political parties? What will be your political bargain?”
He said that the party was working very hard to ensure that it gets more states from the zone, saying, ”we want to start with Anambra.
The APC chairman also highlighted the party’s focus on capturing Anambra State, currently governed by APGA, as part of its strategy to dominate the South-East geopolitical zone.
