BREAKING: Edo Decide 2020, I Never Begged Obaseki To Return To APC – Ize-iyamu by fineboynl(m): 12:18pm On Sep 24, 2020 |
![]() Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, candidate of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in the just-concluded Edo Governorship Election has denied asking Governor Godwin Obaseki to return to the party. He made this known in a statement on Thursday through the Director of Communication and Media of his campaign organization, Prince John Mayaki. Ize-Iyamu noted that he has not spoken to the media after last Saturday’s poll, adding that he never pleaded with Obaseki to return to the APC at anytime. The former SSG advised the media to always verify their stories and investigate events arising from Edo, stressing that unprofessionalism would render them as tools for the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP. He said: “Many media houses have once again lent themselves to the fabrications of Obaseki and the PDP, as they did throughout the campaigns and the election. “We warned many times the media should beware of fabrications from Obaseki and the PDP’s camp, but they did not listen. “That is why they have reported that the election was free and fair, and that is why they have said our candidate pleaded with Obaseki to come back to APC. ‘’The video in reference is from three months ago, not after the election but doctored by Obaseki’s media handlers to seek undue legitimacy. “We wonder if the media were being sponsored by Obaseki and the PDP, as it seems implausible that they actually believed the story. “This is even more so when reporters in Benin City would report Pastor Ize-Iyamu, who is currently in Abuja, where the various media organisations are also domiciled, this is to tell you the suspicion inherent in the viral video. “Pastor Ize-Iyamu was reported in the stories as speaking from Abuja but it was the Benin reporters that covered the story. Were the reporters transported to Abuja? “Do these media agencies actually believe the stories they carry? Obaseki and the PDP have a way of leaking false news to the media. The media have to be sensitive and professional in receiving this news.” Ize-Iyamu also warned of a fake twitter account purportedly belonging to him, which had been disseminating false information. He advised the media to avoid it like a plague and verify all their information before passing it on. He said: “I only wish most of the media had been more professional during the election in Edo State but they were not. What is done is done. “The media pretended not to know how violent and anti-democratic the election was in many parts of Edo State, including Egor Local Government Area in Benin City. “So, they (the media) reported that the election was free and fair. Going forward, let them (the media) verify all news before passing it on. It is the basic ethic of the profession.” https://politicsnigeria.com/breaking-i-never-begged-obaseki-to-return-to-apc-ize-iyamu/amp/ |
