Governor Monday Okpebholo of Edo State has hailed the election of Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa of Ondo State in the November 16, 2024, governorship election, saying his administration will do well and bring more prosperity to the people of the state.
Media Talk Africa reports that a statement by the Chief Press Secretary to the Governor, Fred Itua, made available to newsmen in Benin City on Sunday, also commended the people of Ondo State for voting for the candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the election which took place last Saturday.
Okpebholo, however, said as his neighbours, he would work closely with the Governor for the good and prosperity of Edo and Ondo States.
“I celebrate my friend and brother, Governor Lucky Aiyedatiwa of Ondo State, for emerging victorious in last Saturday’s governorship election.
“His victory is a good omen, and I am certain that we will work closely together to bring peace and development to our dear States as good neighbours.
“I also want to appreciate the people of Ondo State for voting for Governor Aiyedatiwa. I am certain that he will do well and bring more prosperity to the people of the State and Nigeria in general,” he said.
The Edo State Governor, however, prayed God to grant Governor Aiyedatiwa the wisdom to pilot the affairs of the state for the next four years and bring more developments to his people.
