A former Senate Chief Whip and National Leader of the Action Democratic Party (ADP), Mr Roland Owie, on Saturday defected to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). Owie announced his defection at a ceremony in his hometown of Ilobi-Isi, near Ehor in the Uhunmwonde Local Government Area of Edo. While speaking, the former Senate Chief Whip urged his supporters to work for the second term bid of Gov. Godwin Obaseki.

Nigeria doesn't know how to play Marxian politics, rather ruthless partisan politics. If PDP wants the presidency so bad, they should spend more in getting the majority seats in the Assembly. Seventy percent of law makers can outright remove the Chief Executive by impeachment. It's about cooperation rather than using the poor as thugs during elections and inducing hatred amongst the peasants. |
