Edo 2024: Eromosele seeks support of Edo indigenes in Lagos

The governorship aspiration of Chief Executive Officer of Mudiame International Limited (MIL) and Founder of Mudiame University, Irrua (MUI), Edo State, Prof. Sunny Eboh Eromosele, received a major boost at the weekend in Lagos.
This comes as members of Idumabi Development Association (IDA), Lagos branch, set up a “Contact and Mobilisation sub-Committee,” to rally supports of Edo State indigenes resident in Lagos State, towards Mr Eromosele’s bid to be Governor of Edo State in 2024.
Specifically, the five-member sub-committee is to identify, and liaise with contactpersons among officials of associations, unions, clubs and allied bodies of Edo indigenes in Lagos, with the aim of forming an all-inclusive Contact and Mobilisation Committee of “Edo Indigenes in Lagos for ‘Eromosele For Edo Governor 2024.'”
This encompassing committee will then be the nucleus of interactions with Mr Eromosele whenever he comes to Lagos, to seek supports of Edo indigenes in the state.
Thereafter, Mr Eromosele, running on the platform of Labour Party (LP), will meet and address a “full house” of Edo indigenes in Lagos, to inform them about his ambition, vision and mission for Edo State if he becomes Governor.
Mr Eromosele, who hails from Idumabi community in Irrua, Esan Central L.G.A of Edo State, is a “man of many firsts.” His new university is the first privately-owned institution of higher education, and a major employer of labour in Irrua Kingdom in Esan Central.
The technical, mechanical, technological and innovative skills-acquitition-oriented school matured from the Mudiame Welding Institute (MWI) – a subsidiary of Mudiame International Limited (MIL) – which offers international welding training certification diploma courses, in alignment with the International Institute of Welding (IIW) guidelines and requirements. 
The MWI produces proficient Welding Engineers and Welders in West Africa, with the graduates actively participating in major projects, including the prestigious Egina Project in Nigeria.
Mr Eromosele, who boasts substantial experience in entrepreneurship and management, has Oil & Gas as core business, with special focus on promoting Local Content Capacity Building in West Africa, which led to the establishment of Mudiame International Limited. 
The company, capable of conducting nearly all necessary Testing activities for the Oil and Gas sectors in Nigeria, functions as a comprehensive laboratory, offering testing and calibration services to both upstream and downstream sectors of the Oil and Gas industries and allied companies – testing and calibration previously done overseas.
The 2010 volcanic eruption that disrupted the practice of sending test specimens abroad for mechanical testing for the Oil and Gas industries in West Africa, prompted Mr Eromosele to establish a Mechanical Test Laboratory.
This enables these companies to successfully conduct mechanical tests locally, thus earning the laboratory accreditation and certification to ISO IEC 17025 accreditation (IAS) and ISO 9001:2015 certification (UXAS).
Mr Eromosele has also established the only internationally-accredited Civil Construction Laboratory in Nigeria, responsible for construction industries and failure investigation on collapsed structures. 
Similarly, Mr Eromosele, dubbed variously as, “The Pathfinder,” “The Innovator,” and “The Skills Man,” has forayed into the aviation sector – to solve hazardous problems and minimise the fatality rate in the sector – with the establishment of the only calibration centre, providing support for the aviation industry in Nigeria, and offering support to the Nigerian Air Force to achieve local capacity.
Expectedly, Mr Eromosele’s steadfast dedication to the Oil and Gas Industries has earned his companies several prestigious awards from global organisations.
They include, among others, the International Diamond Price Award for Excellence in Quality Research (ESQR) in 2015; the Golden Award for Quality and Business Prestige issued by the Association Other Ways Management and Consulting in 2015; the African Leadership Industry Achievement Award from the African Business and Investment Forum; and the International Arch of Europe (IAE) Award by the Business Initiative Directions (BID) in 2015.
These are the kinds of expertise, skills and experience that Mr Eromosele states he wants to bring to bear in the governance of Edo State, which, he envisions will be the “technical, mechanical, technological and innovative industrial hub of Nigeria.”
Hence, he cherishes and seeks the supports of Edo indigenes, both in and outside the state, which’s christened, “The Heart Beat of The Nation.” 
With his catchphrase of “Edo will ‘Rise and Walk’ again,” Mr Eromosele says he wants to make Edo State “truly the Heart Beat of Nigeria.”
Canvassing his cause at the weekend, Mr Randy Aileonoator, Eromosele’s relation and point-man in Lagos, formally briefed members of the IDA, Lagos branch – during their monthly meeting hosted by Mr Sunday Idiake at Agbara Estate in Ogun State – on Mr Eromosele’s aspiration, and why they should bless and support him. 
Mr Aileonoator stressed Mr Eromosele’s desire to work with Edo indigenes in Lagos, to mobilise for his interest to govern Edo State.
Welcoming Eromosele’s bid, which they declared as a collective responsibility, members of the IDA decided to empanel a five-member sub-committee, to liaise with officials of associations, unions, clubs and other bodies of Edo indigenes in Lagos.
Members of the sub-committee are Dr Godfrey I. Adudu, National President of IDA; Mr Patrick Iyoha, Chairman, IDA, Lagos branch; Mr Idiake, Vice Chairman, IDA, Lagos; Mr Ehichioya Ezomon, ex-Vice Chairman, IDA, Lagos; and Mr Ehimen Ogbeni, Youth President, IDA, Lagos.
