Edo governor, Godwin Obaseki, has again vowed not to go back to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
Obaseki said although it was not his will to leave the political platform that sponsored his election in his first tenure, he was pushed out of the party when he wanted to run for another term.
The governor stated after meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
“Well, I think I have shown that I’m a politician with integrity and I have made it very clear that I didn’t leave the other party on my own,” Obaseki told reporters who asked if he was planning to return to APC.
“I was pushed out of the party and someone else gave me cover, gave me an opportunity.
“It will not be the right thing to do. To now leave who helped you, who gave you the umbrella in your storm, and then go back to the person who pushed you out.”
Obaseki is currently a member of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
