Ijaw leader Chief Edwin Clark on Monday urged Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki to join the Peoples Democratic Party to realise his second term ambition.Clark believes that the opposition party has a great chance to reclaim the state from the All Progressives Congress with Obaseki as its standard bearer.
Clark, in a statement on Obaseki’s disqualification, said: “While, I am not a member of the APC, or of PDP, or any other political party, for that matter, it is regrettable that the APC in Edo State, is being destroyed as it was in some other states in 2019 when, due to the same manipulation and rascally interferences leading to wrong decisions, the APC lost Zamfara, Bauchi, and Adamawa states to the PDP, and did not have candidates in Rivers State for the elections.
“It is a golden opportunity for the PDP to take over Edo State because Governor Obaseki has so far, done well.”He told reporters at a briefing to mark his fifth year in office that the APC was being conscious of the legal implications of clearing a candidate with question marks on their certificates.
