BREAKING! Political permutations shifts gear in Edo as Deputy Gov pitches tenth with APC

…dumps PDP finally

The reinstated Deputy Governor of Edo State, Comrade Phillip Shaibu, has officially dumped the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The embattled Deputy Governor dumped that main opposition party at a campaign rally held on Saturday in the state.

Shaibu, at the rally, declared his official return to the All Progressives Congress (APC).

He was received into the party by the APC’s governorship candidate, Senator Monday Okpebholo and his running mate, Dennis Idahosa.

The reinstated Deputy Governor also used the defection rally to reunite with his political godfather, a former Edo State Governor and APC National Chairman, Senator Adams Oshiomhole.

Recall that a Federal High Court in Abuja had nullified Shaibu’s impeachment on charges of gross misconduct by the Edo State House of Assembly.
