Former Secretary to the State Government of Edo State, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, has announced his intention to participate in the 2024 governorship race in the state. On Wednesday, he declared his candidacy under the All Progressives Congress (APC).

This marks his third attempt at the Edo governorship office.

Ize-Iyamu reiterated his commitment to the SIMPLE agenda, focusing on Security, Infrastructure Development, Manpower Development, Public/Private Partnership, Leadership by example, and Employment creation.

Speaking during his declaration, he said: “Having served as Secretary to the State Government and a previous governorship candidate of the party, I possess the required experience to be governor.

“We lost the 2020 election because our leaders outside the state chose to vote against us.”
