“As a democrat and development- oriented leader, Governor Obaseki found himself among strange bed-fellows in the All Progressives Congress (APC) where he was constantly resisting the greed and impunity of power-mongering political godfathers, which came at a huge cost to governance in Edo state.
“It is therefore heartwarming that Governor Obaseki is now in the home where he rightly belong, and which is devoid of chaos and comedy of errors in the APC which took a toll on governance in Edo state.

Elumelu assured Governor Obaseki of total support for his reelection bid and called on the people of Edo state to continue to stand with the Governor and the PDP and use the forthcoming election to completely break free from the chains of greedy godfathers, which they witnessed under APC.
