The PDP has called on the INEC to review the result of the Edo State Governorship election.

The party said the review will allow INEC to declare the result that was obtained from the genuine votes cast at the polling units. PDP acting National Chairman Ambassador Umar Damagum, at a press conference in Abuja on Monday, said the party will challenge the election in court.

According to him, the way and manner the judiciary treats the outcome of Edo election will determine whether Nigerians still have a country. Damagum stated that the people of Edo chose Dr. Asue Ighodalo as the next governor, adding that only their will as expressed at the polling units should be allowed to stand, and not anything else.

He said, “Despite the viol3nc3, intimidation and manipulations by the APC, results obtained from the polling units show that our candidate, Dr. Asue Ighodalo clearly won the election before the figures were altered at the state collation exercise in favour of the defeated APC candidate.”
