Edo North Ivie Zone Demands Etsako East Chairmanship Slot for 2026 Election

The North Ivie zone in Edo State is demanding the Etsako East local government chairmanship slot for the 2026 election. The zone argues for fair representation, citing their consistent support for the ruling party, APC.

They feel overlooked for key positions despite their loyalty. The group, North Ivie People Voice, led by Abdullahi Shaibu, emphasizes the need for equity and justice, highlighting past marginalization.

Since 1999, the zone has only held the chairmanship for a short period. The call for the chairmanship reflects a collective decision of the Ivie people for fair political representation in the upcoming election.
