Okoye Predicts Shaibu And Oshiomhole Will Unite To Support APC In Edo Gubernatorial Election
Francis Okoye, convener of the All Progressives Congress (APC) South-East Coalition, has asserted that the impeachment of Philip Shaibu, the Deputy Governor of Edo state, could significantly impact the Peoples Democratic Party’s (PDP) prospects in the upcoming 2024 gubernatorial poll……READ ALSO Mr Ibu’s Heartfelt Message To Paul Okoye Before Tragic Passing Caught On Camera
In an interview with Legit, Okoye contended that discontent over Shaibu’s impeachment could translate into support for the APC candidate, Senator Monday Okpebholo, and his running mate, Hon Dennis Idahosa.
Okoye suggested that Shaibu, a former APC member, might overtly or covertly back the APC in the forthcoming election. He further speculated that Shaibu and former governor Senator Adams Oshiomhole would align their efforts to bolster the APC’s chances and facilitate Okpebholo’s emergence.
Describing Shaibu as a significant figure in Edo politics and a relative of Oshiomhole, Okoye anticipated a renewed alliance between them in favor of the APC candidate. He characterized Shaibu’s impeachment as a setback for the PDP and a boon for the APC’s electoral prospects in Edo.
Okoye expressed confidence in the APC’s victory in the September 2024 gubernatorial election, citing perceived public dissatisfaction with the current administration under Governor Obaseki. He portrayed the Okpebholo-Idahosa ticket as a harbinger of change, asserting that Edo residents would overwhelmingly support them for a paradigm shift in governance.
As the political landscape in Edo continues to evolve, Okoye’s predictions underscore the anticipated realignment of political forces and the potential implications for the upcoming election.
