Governor Godwin Obaseki, who was a member of the APC until last month is seeking reelection on the platform of the PDP.

The governor decamped to the PDP in June after the APC screening committee disqualified him from participating in the party’s primary election due to discrepancies in his credentials.

Obaseki will contest against APC governorship candidate, Osagie Ize-Iyamu, on Saturday, September 19, 2020.
