The flag of the All Progressives Congress (APC) was on Monday, March 18, handed to the governorship candidate of the party in the forthcoming Edo gubernatorial election, Monday Okpebholo, by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.
The flag was handed over to Okpebholo and the deputy governorship candidate of the APC, Dennis Idahosa at the Banquet Hall of the State House, Abuja.
The national chairman of the APC, Abdullahi Ganduje, other members of the party’s National Working Committee (NWC), and Edo APC stakeholders witnessed the event.
Idahosa was unveiled at a meeting on Sunday night attended by the APC National Chairman, Ganduje, former Edo State Governor, Adams Oshiomhole, Okpebholo himself and a few other party chieftains.
Recall that Idahosa was one of the aspirants who contested the APC ticket for Edo governorship election during the party primaries but lost the ticket as the Okpebholo eventually emerged as the party’s flag bearer for the November 21, 2024 election.
