Edo Guber: Obaseki made Philip Shaibu decamp to APC – Oshiomhole
Edo North Senator, Adams Oshiomhole on Saturday said the embattled Deputy Governor of the state, Philip Shaibu has decamped to the All Progressives Congress, APC.
Oshiomhole said Shaibu decamped to APC due to the frustration he suffered in the hands of Governor Godwin Obaseki.
The senator spoke at UNIBEN during the grand finale of the All Progressives Congress, APC, governorship campaign.
He accused Obaseki of diverting funds and allocations from the Federal Government, meant for projects in the state, into his private pocket.
On September 21, the people of Edo State will decide their next governor.
Frontrunners in Saturday’s governorship election are Monday Okpebholo of the APC, Asue Ighodalo of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, and Olumide Akpata of the Labour Party, LP.
