Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu is currently meeting with Chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) National Caretaker Committee and Governor of Yobe State, Mai Mala Buni, in Abuja.

Pastor Ize-Iyamu is the APC gubernatorial candidate in the just concluded September 19 Governorship election in Edo State. 

Also at the all-important meeting is Governor of Kogi State, Alhaji Yahaya Bello and other governors on the APC platform. The meeting is expected to x-ray the party's performance at the poll.

Igbere TV reports that the meeting is taking place at the Party National Secretariat, located at 40 Blantyre Crescent, Wuse 2, Abuja.

Our Abuja correspondent gathered that Ize-Iyamu arrived the nation's capital since Monday, and has been meeting with stakeholders of the party.

He departed Edo state shortly after the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declared Governor Godwin Obaseki as the winner of the election, on Sunday.

Obaseki, candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), polled 307,955 votes to defeat the APC candidate, Ize-Iyamu, who got 223,619 votes in the keenly contested poll.

Although President Muhammadu Buhari and the Buni-led APC national caretaker committee had since congratulated Obaseki on his re-election, Ize-Iyamu is yet to concede defeat.

Rumours are rife that the APC faction in Edo loyal to its former National Chairman, Adams Oshiomhole, would challenge the victory of Obaseki in court.

Already, the Edo Governorship Election Petitions Tribunal has been set up, and a panel constituted by President of the Court of Appeal, Justice Monica Dongban-Menem.

Ize-Iyamu is billed to also visit President Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja, before departing for Edo state. He is expected to make his next political move public after the meeting.
