Intrigue As Pastor Iyamu Decamps, Hold APC Mega Rally In His Home

When Pastor Ize Iyamu of the Peoples Democratic Party contested against his main rival Governor Godwin Obaseki of the All Progressives Congress in the 2016 governorship election in Edo state there were heavy criticisms on both sides that a novice in politics will think that they are strange bedfellows.

But in reality, both Pastor Ize Iyamu and Godwin Obaseki are political sons of the national chairman of APC Adams Oshiomhole. Just about a month ago, Pastor Ize Iyamu decamped from the PDP to the APC and was formerly received this week.

For those who have been following political happenings in Edo state, they know that Adams Oshiomhole does not want Obaseki to have a second term as governor even though he vigorously campaigned against him in 2016.

He now thinks that Ize Iyamu is better and should get the All Progressives Congress (APC) party ticket.

Recently an attempt by the Oshiomhole faction of the APC to hold a grand rally was stopped due to security fears. Loyalists of the APC went further to assemble at Ize Iyamu's residence.

Governor Obaseki who successfully aborted the rally vowed that since political rallies have been banned the government will withdraw the certificate of occupancy of anyone who allows political gatherings to take place in his residence.
