Joining Imobighe are notable figures like Hon. Dr. Akaba, the Senior Special Assistant to Governor Godwin Obaseki on Agriculture, and Hon. Deji Momoh, aka BMD, Leader of Ward 11 and a PDP candidate for EDHA 2023. Even Madam DKT, the influential Woman Leader of Ward 8, has switched allegiance, taking hundreds of supporters with her.
As these defections mount, the PDP appears to be in a state of panic, desperately trying to forge ahead in the September elections. With key members now rallying behind APC’s Monday Okpebholo, the PDP’s strategy seems to be rapidly disintegrating. Stay tuned for more on this unfolding political drama!
