After Edo Election, Ganduje Reveals How APC Will Recover Ondo, Anambra

After Edo Election, Ganduje Reveals How APC Will Recover Ondo, Anambra

The All Progressives Congress (APC) national chairman, Abdullahi Ganduje, has declared that the ruling party will employ the strategy it used in last Saturday’s governorship election in Edo State to win Ondo State in the forthcoming November 16th election.

Naija News reports that Ganduje also mentioned that the APC intends to apply this strategy in Anambra, which is presently governed by the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) and other states in the South East, for future elections.

The former Governor of Kano State made these remarks on Monday in Abuja during a celebration of Senator Monday Okpebholo’s win with members of the Edo State election situation room.

Ganduje emphasized that a major party like the APC should have full control over the Southeast geopolitical region and called on party leaders at every level to dedicate themselves to achieving the party’s goals.

He said: “We have started working to develop strategies to win these states. Next year, Anambra State will follow. Let me remind you that we have a project which we named political demarginalization of South East geo-political zone.

“That project is also a task that must be done. We will face the southeast zone with five states. We already have 2, but 2 is too small for a big party like ours. We will face that state and see how we can recover many states in our favour.”

PDP Rejects Edo Election Results, Heads To Court

Meanwhile, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has formally rejected the results of the recent Edo State Governorship election, as declared by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

During a media briefing in Abuja on Monday, the Acting National Chairman of the PDP, Amb. Umar Damagum, expressed his party’s dissatisfaction with the outcome, asserting that the people of Edo State rightfully voted for the PDP’s candidate, Dr. Asue Ighodalo, and expect him to be announced as the governor-elect.

Damagum urged INEC to utilize the provisions available within the Electoral Act to rectify what he termed a flawed process.

He charged the electoral body to take corrective action, stating, “INEC must retrace its steps and ensure that the will of the people is honored.”
