Eshokene also disclosed that party faithful and loyalists would mobilise to purchase nomination form  Oshiomhole to demonstrate their resolve to have him contest the Edo North Senatorial seat.
There have been strong indications that the former Governor may be aiming to go to the Senate which is currently being occupied by Senator Francis Alimekena who is also seeking third term ticket.
Eshokene told Journalists that “Edo state and the Senatorial district need a strong representation more than what we are getting now. Edo state has not got the right kind of representation and Edo North has been the worst hit in this.
“Comrade Adams Oshiomhole has demonstrated what he can do as a labour leader, as governor of the state and as national chairman of the party. Our people in Edo north need adequate representation more than we are getting and Comrade Oshiomhole fits the kind of person Edo North needs in the Senate.”
