Why Obaseki’s disqualification will not affect APC’s chances of winning
DAILY POST earlier reported that the APC screening committee disqualified Governor Obaseki from participating in the governorship primary of the party.However, political analysts believe the decision of the APC screening committee might not affect the chances of the party in winning in the coming election.
“It has happened before in Lagos where an incumbent Governor didn’t win the party primary and the party still won the election.” He said. Mr. Rasheed said, “Obaseki got the message right. One, as he was disqualified, he knew if he should challenge it, it would open doors to more crises and make him lose focus on his second term bid. The APC too knew that once he is disqualified and he moves to another party, there is no way he will challenge his disqualification in court.
