As politicians gear up for the 2015 general elections, a member of the House of Representatives representing Etsako Federal Constituency, Momoh Abubakar, has vowed to rout the All Progressives Congress (APC) from Edo North if he emerges as the senatorial candidate of the Peoples Demo­cratic Party (PDP) in the zone.

Momoh, a former member of the All Pro­gressives Congress (APC) made the vow when he paid a cour­tesy call to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) secretariat in Benin to intimate the party lead­ership of his intention to contest the senatorial election on the platform of the party.

The federal legislator, who was accompanied on the visit by party stalwarts, led by the for­mer deputy chairman of APC in the state, Alhaji Usman Shagadi, com­mended the PDP lead­ership for its selfless ef­forts in turning around the party’s fortune and assured that the APC in Edo North would soon collapse by the time his supporters who were still in the party defected to the PDP to support his senatorial ambition.

Momoh stated that his achievements in the House of Representa­tives and vast legislative experiences would work in his favour during the election.
