Edo State Commissioner of Works, Barrister Osarodion Ogie has hosted the All Progressives Party (APC) supporters in Ikpova Okha local government area who are celebrating the emergence of Muhammadu Buhari as Nigeria’s president elect.
Scores of party supporters were treated to traditional dance by a cultural troupe singing in Edo language and punctuating their songs with praise for Buhari.
The APC in Edo state is in a relieved mood with Buhari’s election after suffering some heavy losses in the Senatorial and House of Representatives election held last Saturday.
