Edo State Governor Godwin Obaseki says the All Progressives Congress’ National Working Committee has no power to decide how the party governorship primary in the state will be conducted.

The APC NWC headed by Adams Oshiomhole has ordered direct primary.The governor, who spoke through his Special Adviser on Media and Strategy, Crusoe Osagie, on Friday, said the NWC could not take any decisions on the primary without the National Executive Committee of the party.

“So, in Edo, the same method will be adopted, according to the rules of NEC. We will now write the NWC to say this is the mode of primary that we want.” Our correspondent learnt that the direct primary would involve all registered card-carrying members of the party in each council. He said, “I do not see how the primary will be conducted in such a way that a common candidate will be presented in the Edo governorship election as things are now. Both parties have remained adamant and stuck to their guns; the search for truce by sincere men in this matter has failed on many occasions. I am afraid we are heading for anarchy.”Meanwhile, the Independent National Electoral Commission says it will start meeting with Edo and Ondo election stakeholders from May 30.

Others are Bayo State Constituency, Borno State, Nasarawa Central State Constituency in Nasarawa State and Bakori State Constituency in Katsina State

Obaseki should not be afraid of any mode of primary APC choose, if he truly sure Edo people love him and want him to continue

If care is not taken,APC will end up in lossing Edo State to PDP.

This governor is daring.

Mr governor stand on your grand. Don't allow any sole call national chair man to push you aside fight to the last.

Oshio Baba survived the hurricane u sent to consume him,now oshio Baba is about to send u tsunami u are shouting, seeking intervention from tinubu.

Another No Candidate loading...

Gone are days when handsome men rule Edo state. Checkout the two faces above

You guys are causing nuisance in Benin city... Ugly men

Why do they always have to look so scary

Both of you 'll eventually lose because your political greed/interest/affiliation poses a big threat to the south south $ south east regions bcus Benin city is now the headquarters of young unemployed northern youths who can easily be armed over night to attack anyone against GMB

This two and there drama has no end.

Obaseki are the national Chairman of ur party, y can u people make peace between the two of u instead of fighting each other shame on both of you

They should judge obasa first about his 65 bank accounts before anything is done

There is nothing new from the news, how was Oshiomhole’s 2nd term conducted, the same will be applicable here, most unfortunate the Benins is allows themselves be subjected to this ridicules n funny political games.

It appears to be too late for Obaseki...AnotherAmbodetreatment..

Two ugly men....🤦🤦

Obaseki dey funny me why you dey fear Direct primary, you say our people want you show your popularity with this nah.. you start fight no reason the end

Edo belongs to all of you. Hope Obaseki realises this and makes peace with the man that campaigned for him when he could hardly utter a word on the podium during campaigns. He should stop being a puppet to a former Nat.chairman seeking for a pound of flesh from his replacement.

Ben Ayade shades tears over excruciating poverty that still exist in the communities up and down in all over his state. Hmmm,🤔

While these Rock face characters are squabbling for power in Edo State, Ben Ayade is raising eyebrows in Calabar with his post COVIDー19 response. ..1/2

If the state exco of the party in the state decides not to go for direct primary, so it shall be.

Look at this one, like the government house is the palace is of his ancestors. Greediness at its peak.

Trouble for Obaseki

Let me run ooooo

Oshiomhole want to turn himself to figure father in edo state, isn't possible.

Osho baba own too much. He should focus on his incapabilities at the national level and leave Edo State alone. Obaseki might not be the best but he's trying. Make every aboki man carry eim kettle, period.

This two are the most handsome men in Edo Lovely people 😉
