Barely twenty four hours to the conduct of Etsako Federal constituency Bye election in Edo state, an aspirant Blessing Agbomere has disclosed that he is still in the race.

Agbomere who made this known to newsmen in Benin said it has become imperative to dispel the rumours making the rounds that he has stopped down for a particular aspirant. 

Agbomere, who was also a governorship aspirant under the All Progressives Congress in the State admonished his supporters to disregard such comments adding that " it is the handwork of our enemy "

Agbomere said "I have called you here today to dispel the rumours about my aspirations that I have stepped down"

"I am part of the change agenda and the Buhari struggle. I am vying for the position not to benefit myself but for the people of my constituency"

"At this point in our nationhood, we require young, vibrant youth, which I represent to lead my people at the National Assembly."
