I left LP for PDP because of my people– Edo deputy governor

“To be very frank with you, the Labour Party is not just a
party but a movement I hold dearly. If I have the opportunity over and over, I
will continue to thank them,” he said.

“It was LP that gave me the platform, but like I told you,
what informed it (defection) is Akoko Edo. It is my major project and we are
predominantly APC and PDP.

 “I am happy that
these six months or what you called seven months are okay for me. The governor
has told me in clear terms — we have discussed some critical issues and I have
given him a needs assessment of our people.

“I may not be able to do so much but I will make an impact
that the people of Akoko Edo and Edo north will remember me for.”

The deputy governor described Asue Ighodalo, governorship
candidate of the PDP in Edo, as “humble”, adding that he plays his “kind of
politics”.
