There rumour that Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State may revert his earlier decision of dumping the ruling party, APC following the Suspension of the party National Chairman, Adam Aliyu Oshiomhole, by the Appeal court.
Omokoshaban learn that some APC leader in Edo State, who are also Obaseki Loyalist are planing to use the opportunity of I’ll deputy National Party Chairman, Ajimobi who currently battling with his life in Lagos Hospital.
Recall that following the suspension of Oshiomhole, APC announced Ajimobi as the acting chairman of the party.
A source within the party, who pleaded not to be mentioned, revealed that the Deputy National Chairman (North), Senator Lawal Shaibu, might assume the role of Ajimobi and reject Obaseki’s resignation from the party.
This, the source says, will make the coast clear for the Edo state chapter of the APC to hold indirect primary instead of direct primary as approved by the party.
Obaseki has not made any official announcement of joining any party since he tendered his resignation from APC.
The source said that for the Appeal Court to sit in the night and rule in his matter showed that he was fighting powerful forces in the government
