Some members of the Obaseki family have thrown their weight behind the candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), in the September 19 gubernatorial election in Edo state, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu.
Governor Godwin Obaseki’s cousin, Victor, who led other of his cousins to a meeting at the residence of Ize-Iyamu in Benin city on Saturday said they would be campaigning for Ize-Iyamu.
“I am here today in the company of my cousins to support Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu.
“Godwin Nogheghase Obaseki, the executive governor, is our cousin. Generally, The Obasekis have their own way of doing things; we are a different branch of faith, we are supporting our brother, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu with an unalloyed support fully for him.
“I have supported him before, and I would continue to support him, we would do all our campaigns for him without let or hindrance, fully from the bottom of our hearts” he said.
