False Alarm! Asue Ighodalo Debunks Defection Rumors — PDP Stalwart Still in the Race for Edo’s Future The Team Asue Media Organisation (TAMO) has strongly denied reports suggesting that Dr. Asue Ighodalo, the PDP governorship candidate in Edo State, has dumped the party. In a statement released on Monday by TAMO spokesperson Erhabor Emokpae, the group dismissed the viral claims as a “baseless fabrication” designed to mislead the public and create confusion ahead of the upcoming National Assembly by-elections. “Dr. Ighodalo remains a loyal member of the PDP,” the statement clarified. “We urge the public to disregard this false narrative and the mischief behind it.” TAMO reaffirmed that Ighodalo is unwavering in his commitment to a prosperous and secure Edo State, and continues to strengthen the PDP as a platform that serves the people. It’s worth noting that Ighodalo contested in the September 2024 governorship election, where he was defeated by APC candidate, Governor Monday Okpebholo. Despite the loss, Ighodalo remains an influential figure within the PDP and Edo’s political landscape. #AsueIghodalo #EdoPolitics #PDP #TAMO #FakeNewsAlert #PoliticalUpdate #Edo2025
