The All Progressives Congress (APC) aspirant for the Edo State House of Assembly, Iziegbeuwa Irene Ojo, has restated her commitment to grassroots development and quality representation.

Ojo made this commitment as she concluded her consultation tour of Oredo East Constituency, engaging party leaders and stakeholders across Wards 1, 2, 3, 4, and 12 of Oredo Local Government Area.

Addressing stakeholders on Thursday, she stressed the importance of unity and grassroots connection in strengthening the party, adding that the experiences she gathered would help her provide quality representation when elected.

She said, “Strong representation begins with listening. These consultations have given me the opportunity to hear directly from our leaders and members on what truly matters to our people.”

She also anchored her aspiration on her record of community engagement, noting that leadership must be driven by service and visible impact.

According to her, “I am already contributing to Oredo’s development, and I believe we can do much more together through purposeful and people-centred representation.

“This process has strengthened my resolve. I remain committed to representing our people with integrity, responsiveness, and a clear focus on development that impacts everyday lives,” she added.

The completion of the Oredo East consultations marks a key phase in her wider engagement across the constituency, as aspirants continue consultations ahead of the party’s primary elections.

Party members at the meetings referenced her Smile At Christmas outreach initiative, as well as her involvement in community development efforts such as street-lighting projects and local investments, as indicators of her grassroots presence.
