It is the reason of defection and re-alignment in Edo State few weeks to the almighty gubernatorial election as five aides of Governor, Godwin Obaseki, have resigned their appointments.
The aides dumped the governor ahead the September 19, 2020 election.
They communicated their decision to the Governor by a joint letter of resignation.
The aides, who routed their letter to Obaseki through the Secretary to the State Government, Osarodion Ogie, were four Special Assistants from Ovia South-West Local Government Area: Honest Imina Unuagbon (SSA LGA), Goodluck Uyigue (SSA Ward 2), Razak Rotimi (SA Ward 7), Victor Olunyomi (SA Ward 8); and Smart Bank (SA Ward 10).
In the letter dated July 2, 2020, the aides stated: “Our reason is simply based on the fact that we are not ready to defect to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) along with the governor. We still believe more on the All Progressives Congress.”
