A member of the Peoples Democratic Party’s Board of Trustee (BoT), Charles Idahosa, has warned the leadership of the party to honour the agreement reached with a former member of the House of Representatives, Omoregie Ogbeide-Ihama, in the build-up to the party’s primaries in 2020 if it intends to win the upcoming gubernatorial election in the state.
Idahosa, who gave the warning in Benin, said “PDP made some promises to Ogbeide Ihama after pleading with him to yield his ticket to Obaseki. The time to fulfil the promise and reward party loyalty is here.”

He said he was instrumental in Ogbeide-Ihama’s withdrawal from the 2020 gubernatorial race to pave the way for Governor Godwin Obaseki, after he was disqualified by the All Progressives Congress (APC).
According to him, the national leaders should do what is right because if by any error of omission or commission, they deny Ogbeide-Ihama the ticket, which he is supposed to get because of what they arranged for Governor Obaseki in 2020, PDP is finished in Edo State.”
