The embattled former Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philips Shaibu, on Friday, said he was already an unofficial member of the ruling All Progressives Congress, APC..
Shaibu, said the only thing still keeping him in the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, is because he is yet to officially dump the ruling party in Edo.
He made this disclosure while reacting to questions on why he was supporting the APC governorship candidate in Edo when he featured on Arise TV’s morning show on Friday, stating that his spirit had left the PDP.
He said “In PDP now, everybody can support whoever they like. On the issue of supporting a candidate, the constitution guarantees that you can support who you like and you can belong to any political party,”
He also alleged that since the political crisis in the state started, he had called his principal, Governor Godwin Obaseki, 101 times without the governor picking up his calls or returning them.
