Obaseki charged, “The past is gone, let us focus on the future. You just told us how you participated in forming this party. The politics that we played in 1999 will not be the same now. The technology in 1999 is not as relevant as the technology of today.”
“In 1999, the heart of the whole world depended on mineral resources, but today, the world depends on human capacity and technology. It’s a different world and Edo is spearheading that transition of our politics,” he noted
On his part, Iyorchia Ayu commended the governor for his developmental strides across all sectors of the state, hailing him for the successes recorded in the state’s PDP e-registration exercise.
