Governor Godwin Obaseki of Edo State, who was declared winner of the September 19, 2020, in the state, has called on the former National Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Adams Oshiomhole and the APC candidate in the election, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, to put their differences aside and work for the betterment of the state, saying ‘there is no more war.”
Govenor Obaseki said this, on Tuesday, during a speech after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) issued him and his deputy, Phillip Shaibu, certificates of return.
INEC’s National Commissioner in charge of Edo, Rivers, and Bayelsa States, Mrs. May Agbmuche-Mbu, made the presentation at the INEC office in Aduwawa, Benin-City, the Edo State capital.
“Our citizens have decided that as for now, they trust us more to provide them leadership. It does not mean that they do not have a role to play. It does not mean that they are not part of a family.

“I’m using this opportunity to extend the hand of fellowship to my brother, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, and his other colleagues in the All Progressives Congress to join us and work with us so that we can move Edo forward.
“On a specific note, I want to use this occasion to call on the former chairman of the APC, Comrade Adams Oshiomhole, that the fight is over and he should come and join in building the house where he was part of laying the foundation.
“We have no malice, the only thing we disagreed on is in the approach in moving Edo forward.”
