APC Candidate Oghuma Wins Edo State Bye Election by EmperorTech: 3:42pm On Jan 29, 2017
Mr Johnson Johnny Egwakhide Oghuma of the All
Progressives Congress (APC) has emerged the winner of
the Etsako Federal Constituency by-election in Edo.
Oghuma, a former member of the State House of
Assembly emerged winner with 39,876 votes to defeat
the People’s Democratic Party candidate Mr Jude
Imagwe who polled 18,193 votes.

The Returning Officer for the election, Prof. Shola
Omotola, who announced the result at about 00:45 am
on Sunday said the APC candidate won having scored
the highest number of votes cast.

Omotola said that out of the 59,301 votes cast, 58,427
were regarded as valid votes and 874 votes were
rejected.
Speaking to newsmen, Oghuma, who will be 57 years
old in March, assured the people of the constituency of
effective representation.
“I want to assure Etsako people that I will not fail them.
“I will represent them well and their voices will be heard
and I will not disappoint them,” he said.
The bye-election came following the election of the
former holder of the seat, Mr Philip Shuaib, as Deputy
Governor of the state.
Oghuma was born on 3 March 1960 in Fugar.
After his primary and secondary education, he went to
Bendel State University, now Ambrose Ali University to
read Economics. He obtained a Bachelor of Science
degree in 1985.
He later got a Master of Science degree in Economics
from the University of Lagos, Akoka in 1990.
He is also a fellow of the Institute of Chartered
Economists of Nigeria.

Jude IMAGWE aspiration is my aspiration says Hon.
Omosede Igbinedion of the PDP. This position she
canvassed immediately Jude emerged the candidate of
PDP. Impliedly she was trying to encourage people to vote for Jude considering his youthful background. I can't stop laffing at the ignorance of some persons who want to die with PDP.
My colleagues from PDP in the social media tried reluctantly to convince voters to consider Jude as a better option for Johnny Ogumah but unfortunately the people of Etsako have not come to terms with the misery and anemia of 16 years PDP maladministration.
The result of the election is not a surprise to many of us
because it could not have been otherwise. Etsako people
cannot forget so quickly the immeasurable development
that Adams Oshiomhole brought to the people and the
resilience with which the incumbent governor Obaseki
continues to build on Adam's legacies.
DAYS ahead what you will hear from PDP is that the
election was monetized, rigged, ballot papers stuffed and
result manipulated. PDP that we know may even contest
the result in a tribunal.
Congratulations to Jude at least he has made some cool
cash.

BIG CONGRATULATIONS to Ogumah who will now
represent his people at the Federal House of
Representatives.
Congratulations to APC.

Can you wailers see a sample of the 2019 presidential election result? The result has already started trooping in. Never will PDP and the 40 thieves be in control of our treasury again.

Lol, don't mind them. just yesterday obaseki led team of investors on an assessment tour to Auchi fertilizer factory and he promised to revamp it within the next 3months. That alone is a minimum of 500 direct and 5000 indirect jobs to edolites in perticular and Nigerians in general.
