The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Governorship Candidate in Benue State, Chief Michael Kaase Aondoakaa, has commended the women of the party for their immense contributions to politics, governance and the development of the state.
Chief Aondoakaa made the remarks while attending the Benue State PDP Women’s Summit, where he acknowledged the strategic role women play in strengthening the party and advancing democracy. He charged the women to rise to the occasion by taking the message of the PDP to every local government area, ward and polling unit across the state.
He urged them to work collectively for the success of all PDP candidates in the 2027 elections, from the governorship candidate and National Assembly candidates to those contesting for seats in the State House of Assembly. He emphasised that the victory of the PDP would require sustained grassroots mobilisation, unity and commitment from every member of the party.
Aondoakaa assured the women that their efforts at the grassroots would be critical to securing victory for the PDP and building a stronger, more prosperous and united Benue State.
In his remarks, the Leader of the PDP in Benue State, Chief Samuel Ortom, thanked the women for remaining steadfast and keeping faith with the party through what he described as three challenging years. He commended their resilience and loyalty to the PDP and expressed confidence that, with God and the leadership of Chief Michael Kaase Aondoakaa, the party would return stronger and victorious.
Chief Ortom also described the PDP candidates as credible and capable, urging party members to remain united and mobilise support for all the party’s candidates ahead of the elections.
A major highlight of the summit was the presentation of all PDP candidates to the women, as well as the official presentation of Chief Aondoakaa’s wife, Chief Mrs. Nguvan Susan Aondoakaa, to the PDP women.
