The All Progressives Congress (APC), in Edo State, has sparked a verbal with the ruling Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), by labelling Governor Godwin Obaseki as a dictator and his government a scam.

Newly re-elected State Chairman of APC, Col. David Imuse (rtd), accused Obaseki and the PDP of running a government with massive irregularities.

Imuse who stated this during the state congress of the party, threatened that he would soon make public details of such irregularities.

“As you know, we do not have a Governor, we have a Sole Administrator. Obaseki’s PDP administration is the greatest scam that has ever happened in Edo political history. Details will be made known to Edo people very soon.

“The party is now fully prepared to play the role of credible opposition with constructive criticisms based on facts and intelligence,” Imuse said.

But, the State Publicity Secretary of the PDP, Chris Nehikhare, in a statement, described Imuse as the Chairman of a “rag-tag” political party.
