FCT Minister Nyesom Wike has congratulated Edo State Governor Monday Okpebholo on his Supreme Court victory, calling it a renewed mandate to serve.

In a statement by his aide, Lere Olayinka, Wike described the ruling as a final affirmation of the people’s choice and urged Okpebholo to stay focused on delivering good governance.

“This victory is for the people of Edo State, who elected Governor Okpebholo. It is a call for greater commitment to the service of the people.

“I congratulate the governor and urge him to keep doing his best for the upliftment of Edo State and its people,” he said.

Wike also urged PDP’s Asuerime Ighodalo and other opponents to move on from the election and support Governor Okpebholo for Edo State’s progress.

“Now that a final answer has been provided as to who actually won the governorship election, it behoves on all opponents of the governor to, in the collective interest of Edo State, join hands with him,” Wike stated.
