The Edo state chapter of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has issued a statement addressing reports making rounds over the declaration of the state governor, Godwin Obaseki joining the party amid his disqualification by the All Progressive Party (APC) screening committee.

Recall Obaseki, Friday made headlines after his party disqualified him from contesting the gubernatorial primaries scheduled to hold on June 22.

Speaking on the development, the new PDP Chairman in Edo State, Tony Aziegbemi told newsmen in Abuja that people have been calling on behalf of the Governor, but that he has to go through the ward level to get registered.

He said if the Governor joins the PDP, it is only the National Working Committee under the leadership of Uche Secondus could grant him a waiver to participate in the primary election because the process had been concluded.

As at the time of filing this report, Obaseki still a member of the APC.

Of course

I am tired of these electoral manoeuvres and manipulations . It's obvious our leaders do not wish us well and are not there for masses representation.

Hmmm�

Issorite...

Watching in 3D

Pdp will not accept him, bloggers are just creating problem for them self

let' him fight from outside, than the in house fight, he should not wast time on the offer

PDP must not give him a waiver..let him be just a floor member in PDP

Edo has a lot of personality that can contest successfully in PDP. If PDP should grant him primaries privileged that means they want to embezzle from his government.

Better Obaseki should stay in APC he can recontest in future when his certificates has been addressed
