The All Progressives Congress governorship candidate , Pastor Osagie Ize- Iyamu, has called on Governor Godwin Obaseki who recently defected to the Peoples Democratic Party , to return to the APC .
Ize- Iyamu said this in Benin on Monday while reading his acceptance speech shortly after being announced as the winner of the party primary .
He said , “ We are going to talk to everybody and we are going to bring everybody back .
And let me also say that I want to salute my brother, the governor of the state, Mr Godwin Obaseki.
I will like to appeal to him to return to the party .
“ The atmosphere in our state has been tense in the past few months and it was unnecessary .
That hostile atmosphere , more or less put a stop to governance.
But we are hoping that now we have concluded our primary even though I have to start campaigns , let’ s do it in an atmosphere of love and peace .
