The crisis heightened on Thursday when security personnel invaded the State House of Assembly.

The Speaker, Frank Okiye and the Deputy Speaker of the State Assembly were also impeached on the same day.

This has led to camps of the People’s Democratic Party, PDP, and All Progressives Congress, APC, throwing jabs, accusations and counter accusations at each other.

Just last night, Bola Tinubu, the National Leader of the All Progressives Congress APC, said Governor Godwin Obaseki will be voted out come September 19 because of his “woeful leadership”

Meanwhile President Muhammadu Buhari on Friday endorsed Pastor Ize-Iyamu as the APC flag bearer for the next month’s elections in Edo State.

Governor Nyesom Wike had expressed disappointment over Buhari’s endorsement.

According to him, Buhari’s endorsement was wrong especially for someone whose main agenda is fighting corruption to back Ize-Iyamu.

Ize-Iyamu of the APC will battle it out with the incumbent governor and PDP candidate, Godwin Obaseki, in the September 19, 2020 polls.
