Ize-Iyamu Declares To Run For Governorship Again

Former Secretary to the State Government of Edo State, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, has expressed his intention to participate in the 2024 governorship race in the state.

Ize-Iyamu reaffirmed his intention to run under the platform of the All Progressives Congress (APC) on Wednesday.

The former SSG reiterated his commitment to sticking with his previous SIMPLE agenda, which comprises Security, Infrastructure Development, Manpower Development, Public/Private Partnership, Leadership by example, and Employment Creation

Ize-Iyamu’s current declaration marks his third attempt at the Edo governorship office.

In 2020, he contested under the platform of APC but was defeated by Governor Godwin Obaseki, who ran for the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

Speaking during his declaration, he said: “Having served as Secretary to the State Government and a previous governorship candidate of the party, I possess the required experience to be governor.

“We lost the 2020 election because our leaders outside the state chose to vote against us.”

Kanyi Daily recalls that Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu had denied begging Governor Godwin Obaseki to return to the party.
