He highlighted that the collaboration represents a shared vision for better leadership, focused on addressing key issues such as economic development, education, and healthcare in Edo State.
By joining forces, the SDP and Accord aim to strengthen their electoral prospects and present a unified front, providing a formidable challenge to other candidates in the race.
