  I have seen elections being conducted, collated and winners declared but I saw people fighting for what they believed in and for their mandate for two days non-stop. I have felt loved but the kind of love I felt when I saw the youths and women of Constituency 2 staying and sleeping under the cold of the night just to make sure their votes count even in the face of harassment from PDP thugs, was shocking and I was touched. Right from when I flagged off for the position of member representing Etsako West Constituency 2 in the Edo State House of Assembly, you all have shown me support, love and encouraged me to keep on going and I must say this, I would never have come this far without your help, supports, prayers and votes at the polls. I love you all and if I was asked to pay you all for the sacrifice you all have made for me, I don't think money can buy it. Only God can reward you all. I want to state here that I will never let you down. I promise to give you all the voice you ne...

  THANK YOU MESSAGE  The primary election of our party, the All Progressives Congress (APC) has come and gone. In the months leading up to the primaries, I spoke to many party members at their doorsteps / wards and heard clearly as they summarily submitted their concern particularly the lack of jobs and infrastructural development. I had hoped to assemble these desires of our people, refine, improve and develop them into workable plans and negotiate/secure the necessary resources and opportunities required to realize our set goals, including engaging other HOR members to produce a formidable and properly negotiated documents guided by the principles of true federalism and the supremacy of the Rule of Law. This was my message of effective representation via the RESTORATION Agenda and it was borne out of a burning desire for a better Nigeria and particularly our constituency. .  Although the outcome did not turn out the way we had hoped, however, I am grateful to God no...

  TODAY, I, HON. ANTHONY IGIEHON PICKED MY NOMINATION AND EXPRESSION OF INTEREST FORM TO CONTEST THE EGOR/IKPOBA-OKHA FEDERAL CONSTITUENCY SEAT Several weeks ago, I answered your clarion call for service and offered myself for election as member representing Egor/Ikpoba-Okha Federal Constituency in the green chambers of National Assembly and on the platform of our great party; the All Progressives Congress (APC). Long after that declaration, I have continued to transverse the 20 wards that make up the Federal Constituency in consultation and you, the leaders and people did shower me with overwhelming support stretching every remote and metropolitan area. Indeed, I remain grateful. However, the need to elevate the status of our collective aspiration became much more imperative in the days that followed.

~ Hon. Tony Igiehon To be effective as a leader, focusing on set goals is expedient while having an uncommon belief in the realization of such goals. Good leaders don’t and will never say, *“it’s just a job,” or “I just work there.”* They care about what they do, they care about the promises, assurances and commitments that they have made because to them there exist a most singular and potent reason for their service- the people they lead and work for and whose principled followership they have the rare opportunity to satisfy. Without sounding thrasonical, this is what I am trained and tailored for- finding solutions to difficult problems, providing answers to hard questions no matter how long it may take and springing up novel ideas to meet the demands of an ever evolving world of challenges. As I look forward to representing you in the green chambers of the National Assembly, I will always keep in mind the goals that we both set at the beginning, and fix my gaze on the bigger picture...

The following is a portion of his May Day message: "I honestly utilize this day to honor our nation's workers; they have made us proud, and the country's growth and progress would not be complete without them."

~ Hon. Anthony Igiehon In the absence of effective communication, information can be misinterpreted while relationships may strain leading to avoidable barriers that hinder progress. This is why if a better society is to be built, one that is more just and true, one that provides greater cooperation with its people, then those of us saddled with the responsibility to stand in the gap for others must open a channel of communication wherein constant dialogue and feedback can be routed. Avenues such as town hall meetings will be established and maintained in the course of my service to the good people of Egor/Ikpoba-Okha federal constituency as this will enhance my capacity to deliver on every electioneering promise.

  By  Hon. Anthony Igiehon Anyone can sit in the comfort of his office and delegate tasks or accept the hypocrisy of his staff that all is well with their endeavour, but there is more to effective leadership than that. For me, being effective as a leader involves being abreast with existing realities and with a complimentary dexterity to act accordingly. Such actions impact not only those you manage or who work with you, but more importantly those whose mandate you are privileged enough to carry. In serving them, titles or even accolades amounts to naught. This is so because representative leadership is much more meaningful and profound when it meets the needs of the people. In tandem with this truth, my consultation visits to the 20 wards that make up the Federal Constituency of Egor/Ikpoba-Okha has been submerged in factual needs assessment an essential tool in any functional society. Strategically, I have assembled these desires of our people and in fairness they are neith...

  My dear brother, I am deeply saddened to learn of the passing of your wife. Losing a partner is a tragedy with devastating effects and as such words would be certainly inadequate to describe how you must be feeling as you say goodbye to the woman you loved like no other. Hence, my thoughts are with you during this time of unimaginable grief.  Your wife Olabisi will be greatly missed by all those who were lucky enough to know her. She was dutiful, kind, very supportive and had a positive influence on everyone around her. I beseech you to find peace and love in her beautiful memories. As I appeal to the Almighty God to guide you through this period and help lead you to some tranquility, it is my sincere prayer that her wonderful soul will continue to rest in His bossom. Amen.  Please accept my condolences. HON. ANTHONY IGIEHON

  Yesterday, I had another rare opportunity to visit the palace of our beloved and highly revered monarch, the Omo N'Oba N'Edo Uku Akpolokpolo, Oba Ewuare II, Oba of Benin under the auspices of Ogbakha-Edo, a social-cultural group whose membership I hold dearly. The primary objective of the group is to unite Edo indigenes all over the world for the purpose of ensuring effective rebuilding, a holistic growth of our people as well as a result oriented leadership. Listening to His Royal Majesty was reassuring and we didn't fail to reaffirm our continued loyalty to his glorious reign. Chinua Achebe wrote in the 1958 best seller- Things Fall Apart, *"If a child washes his hands, he could eat with Kings".* Therefore, I am rather humbled, honoured and privileged than proud to be considered a son of this historic palace and will never seize to join hands with my fellow indigenes in contributing to the betterment of the lives of our people socioeconomically.
