Buhari endorses Ize-Iyamu for Edo election

President Muhammadu Buhari has endorsed Osagie Ize-Iyamu, the governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) for next month’s elections in Edo state.

This was revealed by the Chairman, Caretaker Committee of the APC, Mai Malla Buni, on Friday.

Buni stated this while briefing State House correspondents after presenting Ize-Iyamu to Buhari.

The Governor of Kano state, Abdullahi Ganduje, who was also present at the meeting, described the incumbent Governor, Godwin Obaseki, as a liability. I can assure you that Governor Obaseki is a liability to the PDP. I can assure you that we are contesting against a governor who failed most woefully,” Ganduje said.

Ize-Iyamu during the meeting, debunked allegations that 14 members-elect of the Edo State House of Assembly gathered in his house on Thursday, to impeach the Speaker of the House and elect a new one.
