Few hours after Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, formally defected to the Peoples Democratic Party, the main opposition party has granted him a waiver to contest the party’s governorship primary in the state.
This was announced by the party’s National Publicity Secretary, Kola Ologbondiyan, on Friday evening in a tweet.
“@OfficialPDPNig grants waiver for @GovernorObaseki to enable him contest the gubernatorial primary of our great party. Party has also approved waiver for his deputy, Philip Shuaibu,” he tweeted.
