Assuring that there was no cause for alarm, Aziegbemi urged Edo people to remain calm as all issues relating to the party primaries and major elections would be resolved amicably in the interest of all.

Two of the party’s governorship aspirants namely Kenneth Imansuagbon and Omoregie Ogbeide-Ihama have insisted that they would not step down for the governor who is facing a tough battle to pick the ticket.

Obaseki and his deputy, Philip Shaibu were granted waivers to participate in the party’s primary election by the National Working Committee of the party. Ogbeide-Ihama has however dragged the party to court on the contentious waiver.
