The People’s Democratic Party (PDP) has rejected the results of the gubernatorial election announced by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Edo State.
The PDP said the results being announced by INEC, which indicated that the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Godwin Obaseki won the election were fabricated.
At the briefing were the State Chairman, Dan Orbih, Senator Matthew Urhoghide, PDP candidate, Osagie Ize-Iyamu and Henry Duke Tenebe.
The PDP chieftains said the official results from INEC were at variance with the result collected by their agents at the polling units, insisting that the PDP was the winner of the election.
They claimed that from the results available to them, the PDP won the election with at least 30,000 margins.
“It was too early to pass comment yesterday (Wednesday) without reports from agents. We have since received reports from party agents across 192 wards and all polling units in Edo State. The results being announced by INEC are not true reflection of the election. The Nation Newspaper reported.
