Barely 24 hours after the All Progressives Congress, APC picked Governor Abdullahi Ganduje of Kano State as the chairman of its 47 member campaign council for the Edo governorship election, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has appointed Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State to spearhead its 77-man campaign council for the election.
Ahmadu Fintiri, governor of Adamawa will serve as the deputy chairman of the council while Engr Agbo Emmanuel will serve as the Secretary.
This was contained in a tweet by the party.
The tweet reads, “The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) NWC has appointed the Governor of Rivers State, H. E. Chief Nyesome Wike as the Chairman of Edo State Governorship Election National Campaign Council. The deputy chairman is Adamawa State Governor, Rt. Hon. Ahmadu Fintiri.”

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.
