The Edo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has said it has credible evidence that Governor Godwin Obaseki worked against the party by funding candidates of the opposition in the House of Assembly elections.
The party also alleged that the governor, who resigned his party membership yesterday following his disqualification from contesting in the state’s upcoming primaries, had funded opposition parties in neighbouring states in their recent governorship elections to the electoral misfortune of the APC.
Addressing journalists in Benin City, Acting Chairman of the party, Col David Imuse (retd), suggested that the seamless manner of Obaseki’s assimilation and welcome by the leadership of the opposition PDP is in appreciation of his alleged investment in their political fortunes.
The party in the state faulted Tuesday’s Court of Appeal ruling affirming the suspension of Adams Oshiomhole from office as National Chairman of the APC, saying the court misdirected itself from the foundation of initial action at the Federal High Court, Abuja, which bordered on a resolution by 7 of a 25-member ward executive committee.
