Edo: I Have Mapped Out Strategies To Defeat My Male Rivals – Mrs Key, PRP Candidate

Mrs Patience Key, the Edo governorship candidate of the Peoples Redemption Party (PRP), for the Sept. 21 poll, encouraged her supporters to be hopeful of victory in the forthcoming election saying that she had already mapped out strategies to defeat her fellow contestants.

Mrs Key who has also promised to provide a visionary leadership that will take the state to a greater height spoke in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday in Abuja.

She said that her decision to contest for the election was to impact on the people’s lives and to show that women had the capacity to turn around things in the country.

“To provide impactful governance, we need to bridge the gender gap in Nigeria because women are more endowed to provide good governance.

“Edo people will experience transparent, visionary and people oriented service with me as their governor and I believe that good governance is not a miracle, but intentional decision to do good,’’ she said.

Key said that the state was endowed with human and natural resources, adding that the resources would be explored to position it among the top states in terms of socio-economic development.

“In the past, our people do complain of not having a better choice among candidates as responsible for the emergence of leaders who do not care much about the masses, but with me on board, the solution is now here,’’ she said.

She said that the state needed a visionary leadership to improve on its present state of development.

“It is going to be a win-win situation for all parts of the state and residents in general because everyone contributes for the growth of the economy and should be fairly treated,’’ she said.

Patience Key said she had already mapped out the strategies to defeat other contestants, adding that power of incumbency was no threat to her as she had the support of the people at the grassroots.

“The criteria for electing people into key political positions should be their competence and capability and not where they come from.

“For me, yes, it’s a good thing, but then we should most importantly look at capacity, antecedents, before trusting the person with power,’’ she said.(NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
