Some of the allegations which the powers that be at the Aso Rock Villa are allegedly investigating seriously, include the refusal of the governor to "share" and let all " all Edolites benefit from Edo State money", to impropriety and corruption while in office as the state governor.
In the same vein, the Presidency is trying to ascertain the many claims of the governor over his achievements in four years.
We gathered that the office of the new Chief of Staff, Ibrahim Gambari has made several calls to different prominent Edo indigenes in the last two days to get this factual information to take a decision.
Sources disclosed that the findings may help to resolve the crisis in Edo State and as well as establish the truth about the accusations against the APC National Chairman.
We gathered that this may be a make or mar affair for Governor Obaseki in seeking reelection for second tenure in office.
"The the enquiry by the Presidency will help to establish the true situation in Edo State.
"It will also help to establish the trouble maker between Oshiomhole and Obaseki," he explained.
It was gathered that the Presidency could withdraw it's support from Obaseki if the findings show he did not achieve much in this tenure.
We learnt the Presidency is also interested in knowing whether he controls large followers that could swing victory for APC in the state against other political parties like Peoples Democratic Party(PDP).
Said the source: "Obaseki cannot celebrate victory until after the primaries and the election proper on September 19.
"Oshiomhole certainly has a game plan, Obaseki must be alert and it cannot be over until it is over, he stated.
The forthcoming primary of the APC holds on June 22 and the National Working Committee(NWC) is insisting it must be direct, though Obaseki has said he prefers the indirect primary that will allow delegates to vote instead of all cards carrying members of the party.
