…insists Ighodalo won

The People’s Democratic Party, PDP, has rejected the results of the Edo State Governorship election as announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC).

Acting National Chairman of the party Amb. Umar Damagum announced this at an ongoing media briefing in Abuja, on Monday.

He insisted that the people of Edo State voted for the PDP’s candidate, Dr. Asue Ighodalo and expect nothing less than him being announced as governor-elect.

Damagum charged the INEC to use the window left in the Electoral Act to do the right thing by retracing its steps.
