The media propaganda against anything APC in the SS/SE zone will not let that happen. The guy will try but victory is uncertain.
Edo has always be known not to follow the paths of other s/s and s/e states.

KINGinVAHALA:

Abuja— The Economic and Financial Crimes
Commission, EFCC, has made a major breakthrough in
pinning down and obtaining first hand information
from the major beneficiaries of the $115 million (N24
billion) payout by former Petroleum Minister, Diezani
Alison-Madueke, through the former Managing
Director of Fidelity Bank.
Apparently relying on information provided by the
former MD, who was quizzed and released by
operatives of the commission last week, EFCC
intensified its grilling of top Peoples Democratic Party,
PDP, members who shared the loot a few hours to the
last presidential election.
In a bid to recover the N1.2 billion received by the Edo
and Cross River states chapters of PDP, EFCC,
yesterday, questioned the former governor of Cross
River, Senator Liyel Imoke, to shed light on how the
N500 million the state got was used and his role in the
sharing and utilisation of the money.
Imoke, who is being questioned for the first time since
the cash scandal broke out, was taken in along with
the state PDP Chairman, Ntufam Okon, who reportedly
collected the N500 million the state chapter received
out of the N24 billion cash bonanza.
Similarly, the former Deputy Governor of Edo State,
Chief Lucky Imasuen and former Secretary to the State
Government, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, were quizzed
for hours at the Port Harcourt Zonal Office of EFCC
over N700 million they reportedly collected and
shared.

The questioning of the three key PDP officials
coincides with the admission by two former ministers
in the administration of former President, Dr. Goodluck
Jonathan, Musa Sada from Katsina State and Asabe
Asmau Ahmed from Niger State, that they actually
collected N1.1 billion of the slush fund ahead of the
presidential poll last year.
While Sada told EFCC investigators that he collected
N700 million and handed over the cash to the state’s
finance commissioner as instructed by the state
governor, Ibrahim Shema, Asabe Asmau disclosed that
she kept N105 million out of the N450 million of her
state’s share for herself and handed over the balance
to PDP in the state.
However, EFCC is insisting that they should refund the
amount they collected from the bank since it was
taken from public till.
EFCC is likely to charge the former ministers to court.
An official of the commission told Vanguard last night
that the officials being questioned had made useful
information available to operatives and that such
information was being studied to be able to make the
next move.
“We want the money back because the money was
taken from the public treasury and we have made it
very clear to all those involved in the looting and
sharing of the huge cash,” the source said.

Is it not clear pdp is not even in campaign mode yet but half of Nigeria is doing it for them. .

Its only because the people are not happy with this administration..

Reasons:

Lies,
summersault of policies,
probe on only opposition,
mass poverty,
more states of apc owe salaries,

What points do apc aspirants have to campaign with?

If you have been to benin inner roads (streets) where the masses who are to vote walk on every day. You would see reasons to vote otherwise..

Apc needs to up their game... close ranks among other regions and make them feel among.

If not the aspirants of the opposition only needs to tell voters "its a northern party, if not why are our people not represented?"...

My 2 cents..

If APC mistakenly fields Godwin Obaseki and PDP mistakenly fields Ize-Iyamu, I'm sorry, Obaseki is gonna come out victorious. The only person Edo people would vote (for) against Oshiomole's imposed candidate (to-be) would be Edebiri not Ize-Iyamu who participated in the milking of Edo State' treasury during the 8yrs misrule of Igbinedion.

BTW, I don't have any leader in Edo APC and nobody is pushing anyone out. All we want is a level playing field for all aspirants come the day of primaries. If Obaseki is not imposed on us, maybe a lot of us would still have a change of mind and support him & eventually cast our votes for him!

Are you from Edo State? Do you know what's happening in Edo State? Have you ever been in Edo State for at least 2weeks to know if they still can tolerate APC? Are you aware some PDP members organized a protest against Ize-Iyamu immediately after Jonathan was ousted? Do you know he was accused of diverting campaign funds and money meant to be disbursed to the electorates? How do you think Edo people would vote a man who actively participated in the looting of Edo State treasury during Lucky's 8yrs? Are you aware he was the CoS to Igbinedion during his first tenure and later SSG during his second tenure? Do you think we are that daft to vote (for) a known thief? Sorry, we can't say bye to Oshiomole and welcome Ize-Iyamu. It would be easier for a camel to pass through the eye of a needle than for PDP to takeover Edo State. We have long said goodbye to PDP in Edo State!
