Among his associates present at the gathering in his Benin residence, Ize-Iyamu said:

“We are going into the APC with good intentions, we are not going there to join factions, we are going to join APC, we are going there to help strengthen the party and we intend to give our full allegiance to those in charge those in authority, we will not undermine the powers that be we will not join in any fight or name calling but we have come with the best of intentions “

 “We have agreed that we all move en masse to the All Progressives Congress. We have no intention of throwing stones at the house we once inhabited, a house we have many friends and many associates; any of them have left to come and joins us on this journey and there are some who are still undecided but who understand why we have to go.

“PDP and any other political party, we are not our enemies please refrain from any attack that suggests that we are leaving PDP in anger or in bitterness what is important is our primary objective in politics what is important is why we chose to be in politics;

“Many people have different reasons for being in politics  but for most of use in this group we see politics as an opportunity to represent our people, we see it as an opportunity to assess government and bring the dividends, the benefits of government to our people and we cannot be fulfilled if we play politics without being above to achieve these goals.

“People might call us names, but many understand why we have to do what we did. Before doing so we have consulted widely with our people and with God and we are satisfied that what we have done is in the best interest of our people, let our people not nurse any fear, we have done what we have dine because we believe that we just assist to bring development to our people, we must assist in bring solutions it is not enough to just criticise and criticise we want to be in the forefront of providing solutions.

“We want to assure our brothers there that we not coming to a strange place, APC is home to many of us just like PDP was home.”
