Victor Oshioke, Spokesman of embattled former national chairman of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Adams Oshiomole, has said that the defection of Edo state governor, Godwin Obaseki will not affect the party’s chances in the upcoming election.
Oshioke, who appeared on Channels TV’s ‘Politics Today’, stated that the people of Edo state are not with Obaseki.
“I believe that Godwin Obaseki’s defection is an anti-climax. He has since moved from APC, he has only been working against APC. I think it’s just good riddance to bad rubbish. Godwin Obaseki has since left APC and this is what we have been saying for months. He had been negotiating with PDP.”
“Everything was set, he was only there trying to destroy APC and today that he has gone, APC in Edo state in united and victory is ahead.”
“There is no way Godwin Obaseki can upset APC in Edo state because he doesn’t have the numbers. He is unpopular in Edo state, they know, and that is why today he is there and I can tell you something, where is the APC bigwigs you saw behind him? there was nobody, Just some little PDP riffraff.”
“There was nobody of value with Obaseki there today, even the speaker of the Edo state house of assembly has abandoned him already,” he said.
THOSE PEOPLE ARE STILL WITH OBASEKI FROM THE BAGROUND
