The South South zonal organising secretary of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Blessing Agbomhere, has congratulated the governor-elect of Edo State, Senator Monday Okpebholo, urging him to harness the state’s vast human and natural resources for its transformation.
In a congratulatory message made available to journalists in Abuja, Agbomhere described Okpebholo as a divine leader, chosen to bring prosperity to the people of Edo State.
The message, in part, reads: “Your Excellency, Distinguished Senator Monday Akpakomiza Okpebholo, your humility, calmness, Godliness, commitment to justice, equity, and fairness, and most especially your love for the common man, have greatly endeared you to me.
“Working with you, I have learned the value of silence and calmness in tough moments, even when provoked. You remained focused, cool, calm, and collected throughout the journey. Despite attempts to demarket you with a brand you helped build through your ICT expertise, you remained composed.
“Your Excellency, you are a God-sent leader, ordained by God and chosen by the people of Edo to lead them into a prosperous future.
“I take this moment to urge you to form an all-inclusive government that unites all Edo people. Engage talents from the APC, PDP, LP, other political parties, technocrats, and the broader Edo community, both home and abroad, to help reconstruct a prosperous Edo.
“Edo State is blessed with both natural and human resources. We have oil, iron, farm produce, bitumen, granites, and cement, yet we lack adequate roads, industries, and security.
“Edo is home to great men and women, both young and old, who are excelling worldwide. Unite these talents and utilize them to fulfill your vision of building a secure Edo, where every citizen has the opportunity to achieve their dreams and contribute to our collective good, societal development, and nation-building.
“Your Excellency, may your leadership bring glory to the Kingdom of God and prosperity to all Edo people. God bless Edo State and the Federal Republic of Nigeria.”
