Chief Aloye noted that with the resolve of the various interest groups to embrace peace and work together for the good of the party and the people, the APC would sweep the votes in the February 2015 general elections.
He congratulated all members of the party for their commitment to the unity and stability of the party in the local government area and assured that the interest of every member would be protected in the scheme of things.
Chief Aloye particularly commended the Council chairman, Momoh as well as Edo State House of Assembly member, Johnson Oghuma, for their untiring efforts in seeking peace and reconciliation among members of the party, adding that a level playing field would be provided for all aspirants in the coming elections.
Also speaking, Oghuma restated his resolve to continue to provide qualitative and effective representation for the people and assured that he would continue to place premium on attracting projects which impact positively on the lives of the people in the local government.
Highlight of the meeting was the introduction of Mr. Harry Igbadumhe, former Personal Assistant (PA) to Chief Mike Oghiadomhe, the former Deputy Governor of Edo State and immediate past Chief of Staff to President Goodluck Jonathan, who dumped the PDP for APC with his supporters.
A 15-member planning committee headed by the Council chairman, Hon.
