BREAKING: Edo North APC Caucus Unanimously Endorses Comrade Adams Oshiomhole For Second Term In Senate

In a thunderous display of unity and political direction, leaders of the All Progressives Congress (APC) from Edo North Senatorial District have unanimously endorsed Comrade Adams Aliyu Oshiomhole for a second term in the Nigerian Senate—effectively closing the door to internal contestation within the party.

The high-stakes endorsement occurred during a strategic caucus meeting held in Iyamho, Oshiomhole’s hometown, shortly after a crucial security summit with Governor Monday Okpebholo aimed at addressing rising security concerns in the district.

The meeting, which had in attendance prominent Edo North APC stakeholders — including the Honourable Minister of Regional Development, Engr. Abubakar Momoh, FNSE — transitioned seamlessly from critical security deliberations into a united political declaration.

As discussions progressed, Engr. Momoh, in a moment that captured the spirit of consensus, posed the crucial question regarding the continuity of Comrade Oshiomhole in the Senate. Without hesitation, the gathering responded with a thunderous and unanimous endorsement — a resounding affirmation of support, with not a single dissenting voice.

Among the key figures present were the Honourable Minister of Regional Development, Engr. Abubakar Momoh, FNSE; former Minister of Budget and National Planning, Hon. Clement Agba; APC elder statesman Chief Francis Alimikhena; South-South strategist Dr. Blessing Agbomhere; House of Representatives member Hon. Dekeri Anamero; grassroots icon Chief Abu Millionaire; political heavyweight Double Chief Ohimai; and development expert Ernest Afolabi Umakhihe, among many other prominent voices from across the senatorial zone.

Security First, Politics Next

Prior to the political resolution, the APC leaders had convened with Governor Okpebholo to discuss the recent spike in security challenges affecting Etsako, Owan, and Akoko-Edo communities. The summit resulted in a security roadmap backed by both state and federal commitments aimed at restoring safety across the region.

With strategic solutions set in motion and political alignment achieved, the Edo North APC has sent a clear and unequivocal message: Senator Adams Oshiomhole remains the rallying point for leadership and progress heading into 2027.
