The Tarex Effect: How One Man’s Vision Transformed APC Campaigns Into A Movement Of Hope

This past weekend, the APC’s gubernatorial campaign reached a thrilling climax with a grand finale that captivated the city. The event featured an impressive array of high-profile guests, including Vice President Senator Kashim Shettima, Senate President Godswill Akpabio, and at least eight governors. The University of Benin Sports Complex was packed to capacity, creating an atmosphere as charged as a World Cup final.

Throughout the two months of intense campaigning across Edo State’s 18 LGAs, High Chief Lucky Ohimai (Tarex) made a remarkable impact—not through grandiose speeches, but through meaningful actions that touched lives. His commitment and hands-on approach set him apart as a true leader who prioritized real, tangible outcomes over mere political promises.

At every campaign stop, Tarex’s influence was palpable. He didn’t just rally support; he actively improved lives. Tarex generously donated millions to various groups, including market women who received significant grants to enhance their businesses. His efforts also extended to essential community needs, such as constructing boreholes to provide clean water for families.

Tarex’s support for Monday Okpebholo and Dennis Idahosa underscores his confidence in their vision for Edo State. He believes that their leadership will carry forward the impactful work he has begun, focusing on genuine progress and community empowerment. By endorsing Okpebholo and Idahosa, Tarex is not only backing a political agenda but championing a future where politics translates into meaningful, lasting change for Edo State.

His approach has transformed the APC campaign into a powerful movement of hope and real improvement for the people.
