The embattled governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki, says he will make his next step on his reelection ambition public after consultation with President Muhammadu Buhari.

The president has been silent in the face-off between Mr Obaseki and Adams Oshiomhole, the national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) that climaxed with the disqualification of the governor from the primary of the ruling party in Edo State.

Mr Obaseki was disqualified on Friday from participating in the party’s primary election slated for June 22 by the APC screening committee.

He was declared ‘ineligible’ alongside two other aspirants due to technicalities found in their submitted credentials, an outcome the embattled governor predicted due to the sour relationship between him and Mr Oshiomhole.

For over a year now, the duo has been in constant tussle for dominance in Edo State, a contest that has led to the polarisation of the APC in the state.

Since the Jonathan Ayuba-led APC screening panel announced his disqualification, Mr Obaseki had been seen with some governors from the PDP, leading to speculation of his interest in contesting the governorship election on the ticket of the.main opposition party.

The Rivers State Governor, Nyesom Wike, earlier on Sunday shared a picture taken during a meeting with the embattled Edo state governor.

Earlier before Mr Wike shared the pictures, Mr Obaseki had taken to his Twitter handle, @GodwinObaseki, to tell his supporters to be calm ahead of him revealing his ultimate plan.

“I appreciate the sustained show of solidarity, support and goodwill from Edo people and Nigerians in the face of injustice by the @OfficialAPCNg screening committee.

“I will be making my next move known after I complete consultations with my supporters and meet with @MBuhari,”
he wrote.
