Governorship candidates on the party loyal to Adams Oshiomhole had all endorsed Ize-Iyamu as the consensus candidate of the APC.
The aspirant said, “We practised democracy. We started with consensus (arrangement ) because we believed with unity, we can defeat the current governor, Godwin Obaseki.
“But when we heard that the consensus aspirant was inviting another person (to be running mate) outside the seven aspirants that dropped and I came second during our interview, I told him (Ize – Iyamu) that it is not acceptable.
