BY NICHOLAS ABE
The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the just concluded Edo State gubernatorial election, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, has spoken on why he lost the election to the winner, Godwin Obaseki of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP).
Ize-Iyamu alleged in a message posted on his Facebook page Sunday that many of his supporters were not allowed to vote, adding that he would soon announce his next line of action.
He said this while reacting to the declaration of Governor Godwin Obaseki as the winner of the Saturday poll, by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).
Ize-Iyamu, who trailed Obaseki with over 84,000 votes, said he was still studying the election results.
The message reads: “I hereby thank and appreciate my teeming supporters, who have had to endure many evils including being prevented from exercising their franchise, for their support and determination during the election process.
“I assure you all that I am studying the results along with other party members and will announce the next line of action soon. God bless you all.”
