Engr Gideon Ikhine, a former Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship aspirant in the Edo 2020 governorship election, has resigned his membership of the party.

Ikhine announced his resignation in a letter dated July 8, 2023 and addressed to the Chairman, PDP Ward 7, Ekpoma, Esan West Local Government Area of Edo State.

Though he did not give reasons for his decision. However, Ikhine said it was a great honour to have contributed to the growth and success of the party over the years, recording outstanding results from his Ward all through the 24 years of being a member of the PDP.

“My commitment to the people of Ward 7, Esan West Local Government and Edo people remains firm and resolute to keep serving them in other capacity,” he said.

Engr Ikhine thanked the party for the privileges, opportunities, and leadership he enjoyed over the past 24 years of his stewardship with the PDP, while extending his gratitude to the party leadership at both the state and national levels.

Ikhine’s resignation comes barely one month after Barr Kenneth Imasuangbon, another former PDP governorship aspirant, dumped the PDP for the Labour Party (LP) in Edo State.

He was one of the leading aspirants who withdrew from the Edo 2020 governorship election for incumbent Governor Godwin Obaseki who later secured the PDP ticket to win re-election for a second term.

The next Edo governor is most probably coming from Labour Party.
