PDP HEADS TO COURT AFTER ANNOUNCEMENT OF EDO GOVERNORSHIP ELECTION RESULTS
The People’s Democratic Party, or PDP, has rejected the Independent National Electoral Commission’s (INEC) announcement of the Edo State Governorship election results.
Amb. Umar Damagum, the party’s acting national chairman, made the announcement during a media event in Abuja on Monday.
He emphasised that the people of Edo State voted for the PDP’s candidate, Dr. Asue Ighodalo, and should anticipate nothing less than his announcement as governor-elect.

Damagum urged the INEC to exploit the window left by the Electoral Act to do the right thing and retrace its ways.
According to him, the PDP had raised the alarm of plans by the All Progressives Congress, APC, working in cohorts with “the compromised INEC and the AIG of Police in charge of the zone,” to manipulate the process long before they executed their plot”.
