Embattled Edo Deputy Governor, Philip Shaibu has returned to the All Progressives Congress (APC).
The earlier dismissed deputy governor of Edo State, Philip Shaibu, who was reinstated by a Court ruling in Abuja, officially returned to the All Progressives Congress (APC) from the Peoples Democratic Party on Saturday.
Shuibu returned back to the APC with member of the Legacy Group led by Chief Dan Obih.
He said, “On behalf of the Legacy Group, I announce our movement to the APC. We have come to add value to the party.
“It is time to take back our state. We will not talk too much because action will speak for us. We are not afraid, we are ready to move forward.
“We, the homebody, are ready to take our state back through the APC governorship candidate, Monday Okpebholo, and his running mate, Dennis Idahosa.
“We are not trouble makers but if it comes, we will use it to rub our body and we move on.”
Shaibu who got to the venue at about 2.08pm, walked straight to where a former governor of the state, Senator Adams Oshiomhole, was seated and knelt before him, a development that drew applause from party supporters present.
