Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, today met with the President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja and told State House correspondents at the end of the meeting that it would be immoral for him to return to the All Progressives Congress.

Joining Obaseki and Shuaibu on what they called the “thank you visit” to Buhari was by their spouses and some lawmakers from the state.

Recall that Obaseki of the Peoples Democratic Party who beat Osagie Ize-Iyamu of Buhari’s All Progressives Congress and others to win the last Saturday’s governorship election in his state, had dumped the APC for the PDP when the ruling party disqualified him from participating in its primary election.

People have raised concerns that having won the election on the platform of the PDP, he might defect to the APC but the governor who met with the President alongside his deputy, Philip Shuaibu, said it would be immoral to do so.

 

More to come……..
