The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has condemned the comments of the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Bola Tinubu on Governor Obaseki.
Tinubu had alleged that Governor Godwin Obaseki has resorted to the ‘strong-arm tactics of dictatorship so as to win the Edo state Gubernatorial Election.
He noted that Obaseki committed an assault to the constitution by distorting the inauguration of the Edo Assembly Lawmakers.
Reacting to Tinubu’s comment, the Edo PDP faction leadership linked the APC national leader to the state assembly crisis.
Chairman of the Edo PDP Campaign Council, Dan Orbih While Speaking at a press conference on Friday, said Tinubu ought to know that once a proclamation is made by the governor, the law prevents him from making another.
“Reading through his statement, I have come to the conclusion that certainly he is not aware of the issues concerning the unfortunate incident at the State House of Assembly.
“I should expect as a former Governor of Lagos State, he should know better that once a proclamation is made by the governor of a state, the law does not allow him to make a second proclamation.
“The governor made a proclamation for the House. After that event, about 10 members turned out to take their oath of office. The other 14 members stayed away from the House,” he said.
