He made this known while at a meeting on the platform of the Progressives Governors Forum (PGF) with governors of the All Progressives Congress.
According to NAN, the Edo State former governor said, “It is quite a challenging experience for me. I try to compare myself as a governor and now as chairman of a party, coming in at the eve of primaries and dealing with fallouts of the previous congresses. And then proceeding to conduct elections.
“Then conduct primaries and campaigns across the 36 states and the FCT. And, working hard to ensure that we secure as many votes we can for our president.
“As well as support our states particularly where we didn’t have state governors to ensure that we are able to lend a helping hand.
“I am happy to say that at the end of the day even though we lost some states we also gained some states.
"We gained Kwara, which for us is extremely important. And, we also gained Gombe state which is also very strategic among others.
“Of course, we have a clear majority in the National Assembly. We have more senators elected on our platform. We also have more of House Representatives elected on our platform.
“But, there is a lot to be done. And I am sure working together at both the executive, state and federal by the special grace of God, we will do better in this second time. As to merit, our party will continue to govern the country post-2023.”
