Africa-Press – Nigeria. <\/strong><\/span>An erstwhile Secretary to the State Government of Edo State, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, has signified his interests to join the 2024 governorship race in the state.<\/p>\n

Ize-Iyamu declared his intention to run on the platform of the All Progressives Congress, APC, again on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The former SSG said he would stick with his previous SIMPLE agenda, which stands for Security, Infrastructure Development, Manpower Development, Public\/Private Partnership, Leadership by example and Employment creation.<\/p>\n

Ize-Iyamu\u2019s current declaration makes it the third shot at the Edo governorship office.<\/p>\n

In 2020, he ran on the platform of the APC but lost to Governor Godwin Obaseki, who ran on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP.<\/p>\n

Speaking during his declaration, he said: \u201cHaving served as Secretary to the State Government and a previous governorship candidate of the party, I possess the required experience to be governor.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe lost the 2020 election because our leaders outside the state chose to vote against us.\u201d<\/p>\n
