Crisis is brewing in the Edo state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party as another faction has emerged within the party ahead of the governorship election in the state.
He said yesterday that no one had consulted him before his name was announced as a member of the council.“Some persons who saw my name on the list called me. I have not seen the list, and I am not aware of it. I am not party to the composition of the campaign council,” he said. Yesterday, Orbih hosted a meeting of Legacy Coalition stakeholders at his Ogbona country home in the Etsako Central Local Government Area.He said the coalition would, therefore, throw its weight behind a candidate who would represent the good people of the state during the September election.
“Let me send a powerful message to PDP: we, the Edo PDP, can tell you that it is not well with Edo PDP. I hereby denounce my membership as a member of Edo PDP governorship campaign council. Obaseki and his anointed governorship candidate, Asue Ighodalo, are not the way forward for Edo State.”
