The party leaders in the various local governments, described the visits by Engr Gideon Ikhine as a divine intervention and timely.

They agreed to sit together as a family to resolve all grievances amongst themselves. Engr Gideon Ikhine promised to join hands with the leaders to woo the aggrieved members who have left the party back to its fold. He said that some members who left have already come back and more are expected to follow suit.

On the coming governorship election in the state, Engr Gideon Ikhine, assured the party faithful that once the PDP is united in Edo state and with him as the candidate, the APC would be flushed out of the state house.
