AMILOADED MEDIA HUB NEWS UPDATE
The Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu, has stated that he is the authentic governorship candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party in the state for the forthcoming governorship election.
Shaibu said this on Friday on Sunrise Daily programme of Channels TV.
On Thursday, Shaibu won a parallel primarily election of the party while a former chairman of Sterling Bank, Asue Ighodalo, also won at another parallel primary.
Speaking on Channels TV on Friday morning, Shaibu stated that the primary election Ighodalo won did not follow the rules and regulations of the party.
He said, “If the process followed all our rules and regulations, I’ll be in the stadium. And if I win, fine and if I don’t, I’ll congratulate the winner and work with him.
“Nine of us insisted that the processes must be followed because we want the PDP to produce one of us while all of us follow that one person that emerges. You cannot have nine persons saying the same thing and one person saying something else and you take that one person’s word over other nine. It doesn’t make any sense.”
Shaibu also explained that he had reached out to Ighodalo in order to work with him.
He added, “I already sent a message to him in order for us to work together because I am the authentic candidate and as we move on, you’ll realise that. I want to also play a role of bringing every one together.”
