Supporters of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) have staged a protest against the outcome of the Edo state gubernatorial election. The protest was carried out in front of the office of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Wednesday, September 29. The supporters carrying placards claimed that Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu of the PDP was the winner of the election as against reports that Godwin Obaseki of the All Progressives Congress was in pole position to win the election.
Ize-Iyamu said President Muhammadu Buhari was a product of a free and fair election and therefore should ensure the same. ”Contrary to claim that we brought 8000 militants, it’s clear that nothing like that happened. The delay in the announcement of the result by INEC has showed that the result was predetermined and written. “What is been announced is contrary to the turn out of voters, even the national chairman of the APC acknowledge this fact. But I tell you, when the official result is announced, it will be clear that result does not match the turn out.
