Augustine Ogedegbe is going to be our Chairman, we owe him an open mind and the chance to lead.l hereby heartily congratulate him and wish him well.

3. Let me seize this opportunity to express my gratitude to my team who worked tirelessly to actualize our dream of making Ethiope East amongst 20 most developed local government in Nigeria by 2040, my teeming supporters who believed in my aspiration, My party leaders who reposed implicit confidence in my capacity and character to lead.

4. l must also thank profusely my leaders and father Chief Bernard Edewor, Barr. Kingsley Esiso and His Excellency Dr Arthur Ifeanyi Okowa for giving me the chance to aspire.
