The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in Edo State faces a growing crisis following yet another significant defection. Just days after Moses Omo-Ikirodah’s shocking exit, Hon Garba S. Zibril, a seasoned political figure in the region, has decided to part ways with the party, leaving many to wonder about the future of the PDP in Edo.
Hon Garba S. Zibril’s departure carries substantial weight. Having served as a former Senior Special Assistant to both Governors Osarumen Osunbor and Godwin Obaseki, along with a tenure as a councillor and leader of the legislative arm of Etsako West, Zibril’s exit represents a significant loss for the party. His previous position as the Deputy Director General of Omo-Ikirodah’s House of Representatives campaign underscores the mounting dissatisfaction among PDP members.
Is the PDP finally unraveling? With influential figures like Hon Garba S. Zibril stepping away, the party’s stability in Edo State appears increasingly precarious. These recent defections indicate a diminishing hold on power, raising serious questions about the PDP’s prospects as elections approach. As the political landscape evolves, one critical question lingers: can the PDP weather these setbacks, or is it teetering on the edge of collapse?
