Adding to the chorus of support, Dr Felix Oriakhi from Edo South Senatorial region of Edo State lauded Prof Akhaine’s sincerity and integrity, labelling him a blessing to both the State and Nigeria. The lecturer further advocated for the Edo Central region, emphasizing the need for other ethnic regions to support the bid for the governorship, promoting equity and justice within the state.
