Edo PDP Issues Exclusion Order On Pastor Ize-Iyamu

The political circus in the Edo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress, APC has spread over to the opposition Peoples Democratic Party, PDP with the party slamming an exclusion order on its 2016 governorship candidate, Pastor Osaze Ize-Iyamu.

The exclusion order according to an internal memo cited by GreenWhiteGreen followed what party leaders alleged as the failure of Ize-Iyamu to address continuing rumours about his imminent defection to the APC.

Ize-Iyamu it is severally alleged is being positioned by the Adams Oshiomhole led tendency in the state chapter of the party to pick the governorship ticket of the APC in the face of the bitter quarrel between Oshiomhole and the governor.

In the memo circulated to party leaders asking party them to exclude Ize-Iyamu from all party activities, it was stated that he would remain excluded until he acknowledges, accepts or addresses the issue of his imminent defection.

The internal memo read thus:

Internal Memo

In the last few days, the Edo PDP has been inundated with calls and enquiries regarding the stories trending both in print and social media as it concerns one of our leaders, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu.

The party leadership has patiently waited to hear or read his reaction to confirm or deny the stories, but to no avail.

We boast of being a party of men and women of integrity and high moral standing. It is a brand we have earned and wish to maintain.

As a result of the “uneasy quiet” from our dear pastor and the impression our silence will send to our teeming supporters and followers, Edo PDP is left with no option but to announce the EXCLUSION of Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu from all PDP related activities with immediate effect, until he Acknowledges, Accepts and Addresses the issue of his decamping to APC.

This decision has been taken without prejudice!

Signed

Chris Osa Nehikhare
