The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) during the 2020 election in Edo state, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, has declared his intention to succeed the incumbent governor, Godwin Obaseki, in the 2024 governorship race in the state.

CityNews Nigeria learnt that Ize-Iyamu, who is taking a third shot at the Edo governorship office, made the declaration on Wednesday, December 27, at the state party secretariat in Benin City.

Ize-Iyamu, when he met with the members of APC’s state executive at the party secretariat, disclosed that next year is critical and Edo State needs to change.

The Pastor claimed that the Edo people had endured governance by propaganda and falsehood.

He said, “Next year is critical, we need to steer Edo state from the direction of parlousness, insincere governance and rudderlessness. For over seven years, Edo people have had to endure governance by propaganda and falsehood, and the use of government institutions for the purpose of personal vendetta and the oppression of her citizens. “
