The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in Edo State has declared its full support for former Governor Godwin Obaseki, saying his time in office was marked by bold leadership and meaningful progress. The party made this known in a statement released on Tuesday by its Publicity Secretary, Dan Osa-Ogbegie.
According to the PDP, it will not stand by and watch Obaseki’s achievements be discredited by individuals who, in their view, made no real contribution to the development of the state.
“We will not allow his legacy to be undermined by those who contributed nothing to Edo’s progress.
“We stand with him because he governed with courage, protected Edo’s treasury, uplifted Edo’s people and resisted the predatory demands of political godfathers.
“History will vindicate him. Edo people already have,” Osa-Ogbegie stated.
The party also raised concerns about the current political climate in the state, accusing Governor Monday Okpebholo and his allies in the All Progressives Congress (APC) of creating unnecessary tension. It urged President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to step in and caution APC members in Edo before the situation escalates further.
The PDP claimed that the APC’s approach to politics in the state is rooted in personal grudges rather than a genuine desire to serve the people. It warned that if left unchecked, the actions of the ruling party could lead to serious unrest.
