In an unexpected turn of events, Earl Osaro Onaiwu, a Frontline aspirant, has submitted his nomination form for the Edo governorship race to the People's Democratic Party (PDP) headquarters in Abuja. The form, which was purchased yesterday by Onaiwu's friends, including some former PDP Governors, cost a staggering N35 million.

Onaiwu, buoyed by the support he has garnered, is hopeful that his bid for the governorship position will be successful. As he handed in his nomination form, he expressed his optimism for emerging victorious in the upcoming primary election.

The next crucial step for Onaiwu is the screening process, which has been scheduled to take place on Monday, January 29th, in Abuja. The screening will assess his suitability and qualifications as a candidate, determining whether he meets the party's criteria for the governorship race.

As the race for the Edo governorship continues to heat up, Onaiwu's submission of the nomination form is expected to inject further buzz and anticipation into the political scene. With his campaign gaining momentum and influential figures lending their support, Onaiwu poses a formidable challenge to his competitors.
