Governor Obaseki of Edo state resigns from APC - See Reactions

GOVERNOR Godwin Obaseki of Edo state has announced his resignation from the All Progressives Congress, APC.

The Governor announced this on Tuesday.

He said he will in days to come announce the new political platform where he will be seeking his re-election soon.

As the plot twist continues to swing left, right and centre around the Edo political circle, the

resignation of the state governor , Mr Godwin Obaseki, has been greeted with mixed reactions across the social media space.

Following the disqualification of Mr Obaseki from contesting in the primary election of the All Progressive Congress, APC, bookmakers had it that it was only a matter of time before he pulls the plug from the ruling party, and rightly so, the biggest question now from most political enthusiasts is what next?

It is also no surprise that the APC has come out to disown any defection news, saying that they are not aware of Obaseki’s resignation.

But Nigerians have flooded the social media space with overwhelming reactions but what is majorly the subject of interest is that “it will be a long ride.”

APC will use whatever they used to disqualified Godwin Obaseki from the party primaries if by any chance he contest and won the upcoming gubernatorial election under another party.

It's unnecessary risk and tricky situation for PDP.

My candid advice to governor Godwin Obaseki is to be cool and calm where he is presently. Do not defect to another party yet. They will mess you up. People in those parties themselves have aspirations and there are bigger hawks amongst them more than where you are coming from.
