Edo State Governor, Godwin Obaseki, on Friday met with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
But Obaseki, at the end of his meeting with Buhari, told State House correspondents that it would be immoral for him to return to the All Progressives Congress.
Obaseki, who was the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, defeated Osagie Ize-Iyamu of Buhari’s All Progressives Congress and others to win last Saturday’s governorship election in Edo State.
The governor had dumped the APC for the PDP when the ruling party disqualified him from participating in its primary election.
Speculations have been rife that having won the election on the platform of the PDP, he might return to the APC.
But Obaseki, who met with the President along with his deputy, Philip Shuaibu, said it would be immoral to do so.
Obaseki and Shuaibu were in company with their wives and some lawmakers from Edo on what they called “thank you visit” to President Buhari.
