Dr Abdullahi Ganduje, the National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has put a seal to the declaration of Rep Dennis Idahosa as the candidate of the party in the forthcoming governorship election in Edo State by congratulating him on his emergence.

Ganduje also commended the state APC stakeholders and assured them that the party would do everything possible to ensure that Edo was delivered and the candidate delivered.
