In the heart of Esan South East Local Government, one name shines bright for his unshakeable loyalty and dedication to the All Progressives Congress (APC) – Rt. Hon. Festus Ebea, former Deputy Speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly. His remarkable journey is a testament to resilience, sacrifice, and vision, making him a pillar of the party in the region.
Long before Governor Senator Monday Okpebholo’s emergence, Hon. Ebea stood firm, holding the party together through thick and thin. His commitment to APC remained unwavering, even when the political climate was uncertain and defections were rife. As a grassroots mobilizer, he united party members, resolved internal disputes, and maintained APC’s relevance in the local government area.
Hon. Ebea’s efforts have significantly contributed to the party’s victories and sustained its dominance. Some notable achievements include:
- Infrastructure Development: He influenced the reconstruction of blocks of buildings at Emu Grammar School and built speed breakers on Uromi/Ubiaja road.
- Empowerment: Hon. Ebea empowered youths from his constituency and facilitated employment opportunities in the local government and state civil service commissions.
- Community Service: He assisted local farmers, intervened in communal conflicts, and donated to various causes, showcasing his commitment to the welfare of his people.
As APC enjoys a new wave of progress under Governor Okpebholo, it’s fitting that loyal stalwarts like Rt. Hon. Festus Ebea receive the recognition they deserve. His experience, leadership, and passion for service are assets that can further propel the party’s growth.
With his wealth of experience and dedication, Rt. Hon. Festus Ebea remains a valuable asset to APC in Edo State, particularly in Esan South East. His story serves as a reminder that true loyalty is rare and must be honored.
