Edo state Governor, Godwin Obaseki, has said his next move will be disclosed after meeting with President Buhari following his disqualification from the All Progressives Congress (APC) primary election.

Obaseki, who is seeking re-election into office for a third term, also stated that his meeting with the President will be after consulting with his supporters.

Stating this via his Twitter handle on Sunday, the governor described his disqualification as an act of injustice.
He wrote;

“I appreciate the sustained show of solidarity, support and goodwill from Edo people and Nigerians in the face of injustice by the APC screening committee. I will be making my next move known after I complete consultations with my supporters and meet with President Buhari.“

This comes after speculations that the Governor decamped to Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) after being disqualified.

Governor Obaseki was disqualified from contesting in the governorship primary election of the party slated for June 22.

Chairman of APC screening committee Jonathan Ayuba, announced this on June 12 over his ‘defective’ secondary school certificate.

Ayuba said;

“In our view of the issues raised, we have concluded that the higher school certificate was defective. The NYSC certificate – and act of the aspirant taking the party to court – these are some of the issues we have attached and based on the party constitution this has made us to recommend that his excellency Godwin Obaseki is not eligible to participate in the governorship primary election.“

The APC National Working Committee (NWC) upheld the disqualification on Saturday, accusing the governor of also unduly interfering in the state’s legislature.

Although Governor Obaseki rejected the screening committee’s report, he has said he will not appeal the decision.

The NWC is the highest appeal body in the APC.

Ambode fought till his last drop? You call all those media vituperations fight? Why didn't he defect and contest in the main election.

Bro, lemme tell you. Politics hates weaklings. Politicians hate weaklings. Heck, even the world doesn't favor weaklings. People respect you more when you show courage and fight for your right.

I don't care if you agree, but Ambode fought back and even try to bite harder. He struggled with the mighty power of Tinubu and some political oligarchy in Lagos.
Obaseki in the other hand has been defeated before the game starts proper. Infact, if he seeks PDP support and eventually won the primaries, he will be sued for certificate fraud. Eat it, Obaseki has lose!

You don't even have sense.
