I Already Have 2 Legs In APC, But I’m Still A PDP Member For Now – Philips Shaibu

Reinstated Deputy Governor of Edo State, Philips Shaibu has come out to say that he is already an unofficial member of the All Progressives Congress.

He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and Nigerians have been reacting.

According to him, the only thing still keeping him in the Peoples Democratic Party is because he is yet to officially dump the ruling party in Edo, so people should know that he already identifies with APC.

He added that he might still be a PDP member as things stand, but he is as good as being an APC member too.

His words, “In PDP now, everybody can support whoever they like. On the issue of supporting a candidate, the constitution guarantees that you can support who you like and you can belong to any political party.

As of now, I’m a PDP man and I will not support anybody while I am in another party contrary to who I am supporting. For now, I am a member of PDP but going forward, I am good as being a member of APC; I can tell you that.

No, two legs in APC.

The only thing that is keeping me in PDP is that I have not officially declared. Talking more seriously, I am actually a member of APC, but on official. My spirit has left PDP for a long time, it is only my leg and body that are still there because my PDP party card is still with me and I have not picked an APC party card yet. But in terms of spirit, my spirit has left PDP and is now in APC.”

On Obaseki ignoring his calls, “I had made up my mind not to call him again, but I always send him texts. Before now, when I started counting, I called him (Obaseki) 111 times during that crisis, but he never picked up. I sent him texts, and he never replied, but it never really mattered. The last text I sent to him was on his birthday.”
