There is now a new twist to the much publicised primary of the ruling party in Edo state, the All Progressives Congress (APC) as Hon. Matthew IDUORIYEKEMWEN picks nomination form to contest the GOVERNORSHIP of Edo State.
MATTHEW IDUORIYEKEMWEN, a former Majority Leader of Edo state House of Assembly, former Commissioner representing Edo state on the board of the Niger-Delta Development Commission (NDDC), a two time Edo state governoship aspirant on the platform of the PDP and a successful business man has a genuine passion for growth and well-being of Edo state and it's People
In an exclusive interview with SPARKNEWSNAIJA, Mathew Iduoriyekemwen said "Edo state and it's people deserve more than the tension we have put our people through just because we want to serve".
Asked why it took him this long to enter into the race, the APC GOVERNORSHIP hopeful said he "has not picked the form for the sake of it but that he needed to consult widely with relevant stakeholders on all sides, in Edo, Nigeria and in diaspora as growing Edo state is not a perogative of an individual but the collectivity of all Edo sons and daughters."
"Am not in the race to add to the ongoing crisis in the party but to stabilize the party and to show to the world that Edo state has competent and better people than what we have been seeing and are been told" said Iduoriyekemwen.
He then called on all the party members to see in his aspiration as a unifying factor to strengthen and refocus the party, as well as consolidate of the gains and achievements of APC so far in Edo state.
