Shortly after making his intention known, the leadership of the state chapter of the party said that he has the capacity to lead Edo state to an enviable position if given the opportunity in 2024 to be governor of the state.
The former governor said he was aware of the sufferings of the Edo people and would change the narrative if he got the party’s ticket and subsequently emerged as governor of the state in the 2024 governorship election.
He added: “I have the experience and integrity, having been in the office as governor for a short time. I will deliver good governance if given the ticket and win the election.”
Osunbor solicited the support of the party leaders, promising he would take the state to greater heights following his rich history as an astute politician, whose tenure as governor between May 2007 and November 2008 recorded laudable feat.
The ex-governor was received by the state secretary, Mr. Lawrence Okah, the state Youth Leader, Mr. Tony “Kabaka” Adun and a host of others.
