President Bola Tinubu says the All Progressives Congress (APC) is on the path to victory in the forthcoming gubernatorial election in Edo State.

President Tinubu expressed optimism on Monday in Abuja during the presentation of the party’s flag to the Edo gubernatorial candidate, Senator Monday Okpebholo, and his running mate, Honourable Dennis Idahosa.

Addressing a gathering of party stalwarts led by the National Chairman of the APC, Dr. Abdullahi Ganduje, at the State House, the President pledged that the party would stand with the candidates ''like the wall of Gibraltar.''

The president said if the candidate is determined to win the election, all other party stalwarts will also be determined.
He said the party will work with him to ensure the supremacy of the party and superiority of the expected victory.

President Tinubu commended the leadership of the party in Edo for their efforts towards the success of the candidates and the party.
He particularly lauded Senator Adams Oshiomhole, former governor of the state, for his exemplary leadership.

The President, while inviting Edo State woman leader, Lady Betty Okoebor, to speak on the party's readiness for the election, reiterated that with the strong support of women, victory is assured.
In his remarks, the National Chairman of the APC emphasized the unity of purpose within the party towards achieving victory in the election.

Ganduje said the APC candidate is soft-spoken, focused, and an achiever, describing him as a product that is highly marketable, he said with him, APC will bring Edo back to the party.
