A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress (APC) and an aspirant for the governorship election in Edo State, Gideon Ikhine, an engineer, yesterday, vowed to take power from the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governance in the state after the tenure of Governor Godwin Obaseki.
Ikhine spoke during a visit to the leadership of the Edo State Chapter of the All Progressives Congress , where he formally informed the party of his intention to contest the forthcoming governorship election.
Ikhine, who noted that he has the capacity to return the APC to government in the state, said the division among members of the Edo PDP has further boosted the opposition party’s chances to achieve success in the election. “The peace we enjoy in APC, we are going to translate to victory in the forthcoming governorship election,” he noted.
The second edition of the Fidelity International Trade and Creative Connect rounded off on a boisterous note as Fidelity Bank Plc hosted a broad range of businesses, regulators, members of the diplomatic corps and other guests to a two-day trade expo in Houston, Texas, United States of America.
