The Deputy Speaker of the Edo State House of Assembly, Hon. Yekini Idiaye, and 17 members of the House have backed APC Gubernatorial candidate in Edo State, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu.
Idiaye was on Monday joined by Emmanuel Agbaje (Akoko-Edo Constituency II), Nosayaba Okunbor (Orhiomwon East Constituency), Dumez Ugiagbe (member-elect, Ovia Northeast Constituency I) and Vincent Uwadiae (member-elect, Ovia Northeast Constituency II) on a solidarity visit to APC’s standard-bearer at his home in Benin, where they declared their support.

They said they would soon begin mobilisation of voters at the grassroots, to ensure his victory on September 19th.
The Deputy Speaker said he has no reason to support Governor Obaseki who defected from the APC to the PDP.
He noted that the Governor has underperformed and has failed to initiate any developmental project in his constituency.
He said; “There is no reason for me to defect to another party because there is no project in my village to show that the current administration is working.
“I’m from Somorika in Akoko Edo Local Government and my village is the most backward in the council.”
