The Governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, has claimed he might not get justice, after he was screened by a committee set up by the All Progressives Congress (APC) to vet aspirants contesting the party’s ticket ahead of the governorship election.

The whole exercise lasted for about two hours at the APC national secretariat in Abuja on Wednesday.

In a chat with reporters after the screening, Obaseki insisted that the party’s National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, has refused to rescue himself from the process.

The Governor said: “Like I said, as a party man I had to go through the screening process but I do not believe that I will get justice because Comrade Adams Oshiomhole is an interested party in the Edo process.
“One of the questions asked was why did I issue a gazette that will prevent the party from performing direct elections in Edo. That, did I not see it as an anti-party activity?”

The APC primary election will hold June 22.

Mr. Governor, you don´t have to bother yourself at all. We the Edo people have accepted and endorse your second coming. If Oshiomhole and his party refuse your second coming, then it´s better you form your won Party or rather decamp to another Party and grab the governship Ticket there. We shall vote for you and bring you back as governor no matter where you are.
Oshiomhole can not impose Ize Iyamu on us. His party APC will instead lose the governship of Edo to another Party. How can Oshiomhole come in Year 2020 to eat this Vomit of 2016 in the likes of Ize Iyamu?
Has he forgotten so soon all he told us about Ize Iyamu in his 2016 Campaign? Has he forgotten the different Names he called Ize Iyamu even making it clear to us, that he is a Thief who is coming to loot Edo Treasury.
If he Oshiomhole has forgotten, we the People of Edo have not forgotten. There is no way we can make the mistake to allow Ize Iyamu be the governor of Edo State. We will never allow their hidden Agenda
come to reality. Mr Governor relax, be smart. Nothing do you. My advice, play again and again in very TV and Radio Adverts, the 2016 Campaign of Oshiomhole where he told the world the evils of Ize Iyamu.
This is just enough Campaign for you to win and come in for your second term.  God bless Edo State.
