By: Oriaifoh Godwins

Ambassador Professor Martin Ihoeghian Uhomoibhi, OFR, a Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, Edo state governorship aspirant, and clearly the outstanding Aspirant of them all, irrespective of Political divide, has sent a New Year message and prayers to the people of Edo state.

In the message signed by him, and sent on behalf of his family and Ambassador Martin Ihoeghian Uhomoibhi, AMIU, Organisation, he prayed for God to open doors of opportunities that will explode our individual potentials and move the people of Edo state from minimum to maximum.

The message reads in part:

'...May our state, THE HEART BEAT OF NIGERIA, receive the grace to blossom to the benefit of all the citizens of Edo state in particular, and the entire Nigerians in general...'

'...in this New Year, 2024, as we progress individually, may our individual progress be reflected in physical terms in the overall progress of our dear state. May God grant us a leader that will make Edo state a model that other states in Nigeria will copy from...'

Also in his message, he reminded the people of Edo state that, whatever God has given man the ability and intelligence to do, God will not come down to do it for man. He said; '...we must take our destiny in our hands and grab the bull by its horns...'

Finally, Ambassador Uhomoibhi prayed for God to grant the people of Edo state the wisdom and the boldness to be decisive and not be influenced by any sentiment in the selection of a leader and Torch bearer that has the right mix of qualities, such as INTERNATIONAL CONNECTIONS, EXPERIENCE, and INTEGRITY to lead Edo state out of the doldrum, to a prosperous state.
