Management Council, Rev. Olu Martins, stated, “The ward tours will afford us the opportunity of meeting our party faithful at the grassroots level so that they can better be acquainted with the programmes and vision of our candidate, Asue Ighodalo, and his running mate, Osarodion Ogie.

“The tours will also serve as a platform for our candidate and the party to vigorously take the message of prosperity to the grassroots so that no one is left out in our pursuit of a prosperous Edo State.”

He said party executives, led by Tony Aziegbemi, would form part of the campaign entourage, which would include the PDP candidate.

Martins added, “Also, consciously and gallantly visible is the campaign council, ably led by its Director General, Matthew Iduoriyekewhen.

“No doubt, the PDP is the most prepared party for the September 21st election, not only because we are a very organised party, but also because our candidate is forward-looking, focused, and hardworking.”

Martins enjoined the party faithful to come out in large numbers, as they have always done, to welcome and mobilise their friends and family.
