The race for the governorship ticket of Edo State’s All Progressives Congress (APC) is shaping up to be an intense contest as party heavyweights — Col. David Imuse (Rtd), Hon. Dennis Idahosa and Dr. Ernest Afolabi Umakhihe — joined the race recently.
Imuse, the outgoing APC chairman in Edo, resigned his position on January 15 to vie for the ticket. His deputy, Jarrett Tenebe, has taken over as acting chairman. Imuse’s resignation complies with APC rules barring party executives from contesting internal elections.
