Who will win Edo election

According to the cleric, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in the state, Asue Ighodalo, will emerge the winner in the election, but the ruling party in the state must follow the APC "bumper to bumper" to avoid being rigged out by the APC.

Ayodele maintained that Edo would be down economically and spiritually should the APC emerge the winner of the Saturday election, calling on the people not to vote for the APC.

The Edo governorship election has been considered a three-horse race, with Ighodalo of the PDP, Monday Okpebholo of the APC, and Labour Party Olumide Akpata at the centre stage.

Lawyer speaks on Edo election

Speaking with Legit.ng in an exclusive interview, Okanlawon Gaffar, a legal practitioner, predicted that the election is likely to favour the PDP considering the current economic situation in the country governed by the APC.

He said:

"The PDP is likely to win the Edo state governorship election, particularly because of the economic policies of the APC-led federal government."
