Ize-Iyamu polled 292 votes while Edo current governor, Godwin Obaseki of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), got 21 votes.

Legit.ng had also reported that in what will be a big blow to the National Youth Service Corps (NYSC), a corps member working as INEC ad hoc staff has been arrested by the police after allegedly getting involved in election malpractices.
The incident occurred at Ward 4, PU 07, Ekpoma (Esan west LGA) area of the state.

A statement issued on behalf of the party by Governor Obaseki's media aide, Crusoe Osagie, stated that "There is deliberate election manipulation in areas where the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) and Governor of Edo State, Mr Godwin Obaseki is popular."
