Opinion: On Which Platform Is Obaseki Acting As Governor by Gandollar(f): 11:01am On Jun 17, 2020
It is no longer news that Obaseki did not scale the screening to contest in APC primaries in Edo state.

It is also no longer news that Obaseki has resigned his membership of APC but is yet to declare for another political party.

My confusion and question is, if a governor must have constitutional powers, he must be a member of a political party. But within the last 12 hours at least, Obaseki is not a member of any political party.

What then happens to the vacuum so created by his resignation from APC and his lack of membership of any other political party?

Can Obaseki still take official decisions in his capacity as governor after he resigned from the party that gave him the mandate and is yet to join another.

Nature abhors vacuum, pls let the lawyers in the house and political analysts shed more light on this.

Governor Obaseki is a constitutionally elected governor. Resigning from his party due to certain internal crisis or perceived injustice meted out to him does not tamper with his jurisdiction as duely elected executive.
