Earlier, State Chairman of the APC, Emperor Jarrett Tenebe, acknowledged late Dr. Samuel Ogbemudia, Prof. Ambrose Alli and Comrade governor Adams Oshiomhole were three governors who provided good governance for the state.
He stated that governor Godwin Obaseki was supposed to continue from where Oshiomhole stopped but he failed, adding that the result is the flooding Benin was witnessing and lack of red roof schools across the state.
He promised that by the time Okpebholo and Dennis Idahosa come on board, those things would come back, expressing the hope that the Campaign Council led by Senator Urhoghide would work hard to deliver victory to the APC.
