The former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomole, has said that the party’s governorship candidate, Osagie Ize-Iyamu, would win all the 18 local government areas in the state in the forthcoming governorship election.
Oshiomhole gave the assurance, while addressing some youths who paid Ize-Iyamu a visit, yesterday.
He also urged the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) not to focus on things he said in the past concerning Ize-Iyamu.
Oshiomhole said rather than focus on the past, PDP should present its achievements and plans to the people, ahead of the governorship election.
According to Oshiomhole, “They cannot display their achievements because they don’t have any.
“They have decided to focus on Oshiomhole although he is not on the ballot.
“Pastor Ize-Iyamu is a good man with genuine plans to move Edo State forward.
“He has the support of all and is on his way to repeating the 2012 feat of winning in all the 18 local governments as I did when he was my campaign director-general.”
People of Edo State would on September 19 determine the next governor of the state via the ballot box.
Ize-Iyamu and the incumbent governor, Godwin Obaseki, are the leading contestants ahead of the election.
