Why Oshiomhole criticised me in 2016- Ize-Iyamu

The 2020 governorship candidate of the ruling All Progressives Congress in Edo State, Osagie Ize-Iyamu, said he was criticised by the former national chairman of the party, Adams Oshiomhole, in the last Edo governorship election because he was in a different political party then.

Mr Oshiomhole was captured in different video clips deriding Mr Ize-Iyamu, the then PDP candidate, in a bid to sell the candidacy of his then political ally, Mr Obaseki, in 2016. With the exit of the incumbent governor from the APC to the PDP and the emergence of Mr Ize-Iyamu as the APC’s 2020 governorship candidate, Mr Oshiomhole has now retracted his statements on Mr Ize-Iyamu.“Obaseki is MoU governor, but Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu is a man of God, who will ensure good governance in Edo State from November 12 this year.

He said that Mr Oshiomhole’s comment against him in the 2016 campaign ”was nothing but a political gimmick necessary at that point in time”. He cited instances of when the latter praised him after the election.
