The collation of results for the Edo State Governorship election has resumed, with All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Senator Monday Okpebholo, on course for victory. Okpebholo has won in 11 out of the 17 Local Government Areas (LGAs) announced so far by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) on Sunday.

According to the results from 17 out of 18 LGAs, announced by the Returning Officer, Prof. Faruk Adamu Kuta, Vice-Chancellor of the Federal University of Technology, Minna, the APC is leading with 275,329 votes. The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) trails behind with 220,892 votes, while the Labour Party (LP) holds third place with 18,737 votes.

However, an agent of the PDP from Oredo Local Government Area raised concerns, alleging that the results had been tampered with.

This is as APC disagreed with the PDP member over claims that the results have been tampered with.

On his part, Prof Kuta called for calm.

The pending LGA is Ikpoba-Okha.
