It appears Mrs Oluyinka was a placeholder.

It is said that the new running mate is the Yerima of Auchi Kingdom.

A master stroke from Akpata?
The combination of Olumide Akpata and Asamah Kadiri brings together two exceptional legal minds who have made significant contributions to the Nigerian legal landscape. Olumide Akpata, a senior seasoned lawyer and former senior partner at Templars law firm, has established himself as a prominent figure in the legal profession. His expertise lies in Corporate and Commercial Law, where he has successfully handled complex legal matters for numerous clients.

Akpata's achievements go beyond his legal practice. In a historic moment, he became the first non-Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) to be elected as the President of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA). This accomplishment showcased his leadership skills and the trust placed in him by his peers.

On the other hand, Asamah Kadiri serves as a Partner and Head of the Litigation and Dispute Resolution Practice Group at Jackson, Etti & Edu. His extensive experience and expertise in civil and commercial litigation, arbitration, mediation, negotiation, and regulatory compliance make him a true asset to the legal community. He has successfully represented clients in a wide range of legal disputes and has earned a reputation for his meticulous approach and dedication to achieving favorable outcomes for his clients.

The combination of Akpata as the Governorship candidate of the Labour Party and Kadiri as his deputy Governorship candidate is a game-changer for Edolites. It presents an opportunity for the people of Edo State to have leaders who possess both legal acumen and a deep understanding of governance. With their combined expertise, they can navigate the complex legal and istrative challenges that come with governing a state.

Furthermore, their complementary skills and experiences make them a formidable team. Akpata's background in corporate law and leadership as the NBA President brings a strategic and visionary perspective to the table. Meanwhile, Kadiri's extensive litigation experience equips him with the ability to handle legal disputes efficiently and effectively.

The people of Edo State can look forward to a promising future with Akpata and Kadiri at the helm. Their dedication to upholding the rule of law, promoting good governance, and fostering economic development will undoubtedly benefit the state and its citizens. The combination of their expertise and commitment to service makes them the ideal choice for Edolites who have long prayed for competent and capable leadership.

In summary, the pairing of Olumide Akpata and Asamah Kadiri represents a powerful combination of legal prowess and governance acumen. Their collective experience, leadership, and dedication to public service make them the best choice for the people of Edo State. With their guidance, the state can expect a brighter and more prosperous future.

He won't find a thousand votes in all of Ẹdo state. This ticket is just to collapse structure and cash out.

Why did that woman DG drop out, we must know, have they uncovered some irregularities in her being?

No my man!

This running mate is from Auchi in Edo North.

Now, Auchi is a big town that has never produced either governor, deputy nor senator.

This is their closest shot at power and they will grab it with their two hands.

With this, APC’s hope of having monopoly of votes from Edo North is now over.

Even Garfield1 knows

Depends on the person involved.

It’s just like saying northern Muslims are Red Flags but we know it’s not all of them that are like Buhari and Elrufai.

If you have a Muslim who’s refined like Datti, Saraki, Zulum, then you have nothing to fear. And with the level of education of this guy, he’s definitely in that league.
