Idahosa, a respected member of the House of Representatives, emerged as the new running mate to Monday Okpebholo following extensive discussions among party officials and Vice President Kashim Shettima.
This decision replaces the earlier announcement of Omoregie Ogbeide-Ihama as the running mate.
The announcement was confirmed by an aide to Okpebholo, highlighting the involvement of APC National Chairman Abdullahi Ganduje and National Secretary Ajibola Bashiru. They are set to present the party’s flag bearer and his new running mate to President Bola Tinubu for further endorsement.
