In his words "We don't have treatment for new and old members in the APC. Everyone is treated fairly and equally according to his or her dedication and commitment to the party".

The Edo NDDC Representative also promised to implement life incisive projects in the ward including streetlights, roads, supply of more transformers, empowerments, employments and many more as a reward for the loyalty of Igbanke APC members. 

They were all issued APC membership cards by Chairman of the ward Chief Victor Nwanbi Eluehike.
