The Edo State Peoples Democratic Party has condemned the former Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu, for his remarks about the party’s governorship candidate, Asue Ighodalo.
The ex-Deputy Governor previously contested for the PDP governorship ticket but lost to Ighodalo, announced his support for the All Progressives Congress candidate, Monday Okpebholo, in the upcoming September 21 governorship election. In response, the Deputy Director General of the media arm of the Edo PDP Governorship Campaign Council, Olu Martin, dismissed Shaibu’s comments as unfounded. Martin argued that Ighodalo’s lack of upbringing in Edo does not make him a stranger.
MEANWHILE, the APC in Edo State, yesterday, called on Nigerians and Edo State people, in particular, to ignore what it described as “irritating and baseless” call on Shaibu to resign his membership of PDP, because of his open declaration to support the candidate of APC.
