The Deputy State Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo State, Ambassador Sylvester Aigboboh, popularly known as *“Party is Supreme,”* has congratulated winners of the just-concluded APC primary elections for the House of Representatives across the nine federal constituencies in the state.
Amb Aigboboh, who also serves as the Edo State Coordinator of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu’s Renewed Hope Ambassadors, urged the victorious candidates to remain magnanimous in victory by extending hands of fellowship to fellow party members who contested alongside them during the primaries.
According to him, the strength and success of the APC ahead of the general elections depend largely on the ability of party leaders and candidates to unite members and build a stronger front after the internal contest.

While applauding the victorious aspirants, Amb Aigboboh equally saluted other contestants for their patriotism, loyalty, and commitment to the growth of the party, assuring them that their sacrifices and contributions would never be forgotten by the APC family.
