The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) has welcomed the decision of Edo State Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu to seek redress in court over the outcome of the primary of the party ahead of the governorship election in Edo State, adding that it was not worried over it.
The party, through its Deputy National Publicity Secretary, Ibrahim Abdullahi, said it would be waiting for Shaibu, who emerged as winner of a parallel primary conducted in the state, but overlooked by the PDP in favour of Asue Ighodalo, who is believed to have the backing of Governor Godwin Obaseki.
It will be recalled that Shaibu, had last week, stormed the national headquarters of the party and demanded that he be recognised as the authentic governorship candidate of the party.
