Former governor of Ekiti State, Mr Ayodele Fayose, has urged re-elected Edo State governor, Godwin Obaseki, not to dump the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, for the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Obaseki won his first term election on APC ticket. Following his ill-fated bid to seek reelection on the party’s platform he defected to the PDP, became its flag-bearer and on Saturday got reelected.
Fayose took to his official twitter handle, @GovAyoFayose, to advise Obaseki not to return to APC fold even in the face of pressure from the party’s chieftains.
The tweet: “I congratulate Godwin Obaseki and urge him to see this victory as a challenge by the people of Edo State to do more for them. Most importantly, I wish to remind him that @OfficialPDPNig came to his rescue in his hour of political need.
“Obaseki should remain in the @OfficialPDPNig, not minding the pressure that will be mounted on him.”
