Five Reasons Why PDP Won Edo Governorship Poll

It was glaring that some All Progressives Congress Governors were not in support of the way Godwin Obaseki was booted out of APC. Many of them did not back Osagie- Ize Iyamu to vent their anger against the way one of them was treated badly.

You cannot play down the power of incumbency. This worked for Obaseki in this election. Apart from working averagely for the people of Edo, the power of incumbency really paved the way for him.

Adams Oshiomole was a minus for APC in this election. Many APC governors, who worked for his removal as the national Chairman of the party, also worked against him in this election.

The people of Edo really stood against APC.They put an end to godfatherism in Edo election. They were resolute in the determination to end the political career of Adams Oshiomole.

The decision of Governor Godwin Obaseki to join the PDP helped him to win the election. If he had joined another party, he wouldn’t have triumphed today. PDP is a strong party in Edo, moving to the party was a blessing in disguise for Obaseki
