“Ize-Iyamu said he has never been indicted in his life. And that he made his first millions when he was 31. Now I challenge him, as a student in UNIBEN, he was rusticated for two years because he poured somebody acid and today the person was paralyzed,” Oshiomhole said according to Vanguard.
‘Ize-Iyamu poured acid on someone in university,’ Governor says

“It was one of the President’s Advisers today, Prof Itse Sagay that chaired the committee that rusticated Ize-Iyamu.
“I heard Ize-Iyamu saying that they were collecting N25million monthly from Bendel Brewery but now as the custodian of the treasure of Edo state, I can tell you those monies went into private pockets. And by the time they left, Bendel Breweries was owing N2billion, which they borrowed and the company was closed,” Oshiomhole added.
