Nyesom Wike, Rivers State Governor, says Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State, who recently won his re-election under the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), is free to return to the All Progressives Congress (APC) if he wishes to.
Wike stated this when he featured in an interview with Channels TV on Friday.
When asked what he will do if Obaseki left the PDP for the APC following victory at the polls, the Rivers Governor said, “I don’t want to discuss something that is not going to be possible. However, assuming it happens, so what? That is politics.
“If the governor believes that the PDP is no longer a party for him to actualise his vision and his mission, there is nothing wrong but I don’t believe that it is going to happen because the governor has consistently told us that there is no way he will leave the PDP. If he leaves the PDP, people in Edo State will not be happy.
“And he is somebody I have that trust in that he will not leave the party. This is a party that clothed him. This is a party that when it was raining, gave him an umbrella.”
