The former member representing Orhionmwon/Uhunmwonde Federal
Constituency at the House of Representatives and Minority Whip, Samson Osagie,
has said the reign of Governor Godwin Obaseki in the Edo State chapter of the
All Progressives Congress was a very rough and tough one before his defection
to the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.
He said this while reacting to the successful conduct of the
just-concluded APC’s primary in the state.
He alleged that Obaseki’s reign in his former party was
tough for every party member., hence they prayed never to have such a person as
a governor in the state again.
“We have been through a lot of troubles since his election
to the post of governor of our dear state, it has been a tough rough journey
for the party as a whole and we pray and hope we will never experience the kind
of torture we went through him”, he said.
“Obaseki is not qualified to participate in the exercise, he
joined the party last week, sale of forms have been concluded, including
screening of aspirants. Ogbiede Ihama is exercising his legitimate right.
While commenting on the outcome of the primary, Osagie noted
it was the first time in the history of the state that there was no rancor
after the exercise
“Congratulations to APC members in Edo state for the
successful completion of the governorship primary by direct election across
board. With the kind cooperation of other aspirants,
Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu emerged as the candidate, this is
one occasion where a party candidate emerges peacefully without rancour”, he
said.
