Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu, candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in the forthcoming governorship election in Edo State has challenged Governor Godwin Obaseki to produce his results if he truly has one.
Ize-Iyamu threw the challenge on Sunday evening when both men appeared on a governorship election debate at Channels TV which was moderated by Seun Okinbaloye.
Naija News reports Obaseki, the incumbent Governor of Edo State, is also seeking a second term in office and is contesting on the platform of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).
While speaking during the debate, Ize-Iyamu first clarified that he graduated from the University of Benin and despite all allegations against him, including cultism, he doesn’t have any criminal record as a student.
He however alleged that Obaseki doesn’t have a University degree because he failed his O’level examinations and there is no way he could have used those results to process a University admission.
He challenged Obaseki to provide his results if he truly has one.
However, Obaseki in a quick response said he gained admission into the Faculty of Arts at the University of Ibadan in 1976 through his A’level results. He added the University has come out to certify his as a former student.
He also accused Ize-Iyamu of not having the necessary educational qualifications.
Naija News reports that the 2020 Edo State governorship election is scheduled for Saturday, September 19 and both individuals are frontline candidates at the polls.
