Uzamere Dumped PDP For APC

I resigned from PDP since March 2016 and decided to face my business and take care of my family. I did not say I have left politics. All I said was that I was resigning from the PDP. Now that the same leaders who assisted me to run for Senate came to me to say I should come back home, I have no choice than to agree, and today I am a full fledged APC member. I monitored the primaries of the two political parties, I saw the way they were conducted. I saw Obaseki emerged and he deserves it. He may not be a politician but he is a man that has all it takes to move Edo to the next level after Governor Oshiomhole. Power belongs to God. The primaries have come and gone. I urge all APC members to work together to ensure that Obaseki wins at the polls.

 I have known Obaseki for a long time. We were born in the same neighbourhood and we have had contact on several occasions and I have seen his commitment to the welfare of the people of Edo. He is very intelligent, hard working and I know he will win the election so as to take the state to the next level. PDP does not have what it takes to win this state in the next election. Politics is based on issues and you can see what Oshiomhole has done in Edo. Apart from the fact that Oshiomhole has done well, the PDP today is in tatters. 

As things are now, we don’t know who will be the candidate of the PDP in the election in the state. I saw it coming when I resigned from the PDP three months ago and I have been proved right. The PDP has two National Chairmen, two governorship candidates. So how do I convince my people to vote for a party enmeshed in crisis? 

No regret I have no regret leaving the party. From the way things are now, they might not have a candidate. We have Ize-Iyamu and Matthew Iduoriyekemwen as two candidates for the election in one party. And i don’t even see Ize-Iyamu beating Obaseki. Obaseki has an edge. We all know ourselves and even Ize-Iyamu in his closet knows that in this election he stands no chance. But whoever wants to continue to deceive himself should go on.

 I think I am too experienced in politics to be fooled by anyone. So I want to encourage our people to vote enmasse for APC so that we will remain in the mainstream of the nation’s politics. Again, the National Chairman of the APC is a Benin man, so we need to rally round him so he can succeed because we are proud to have him as the National Chairman of a ruling party. You are known to have fought the cause of the Binis all these yea
