The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has suspended the collation of results for the Edo governorship election held on Saturday.
So far, with the results announced, the All Progressives Congress is leading with a large margin, followed by the Peoples Democratic Party.
Prof. Faruk Adamu Kuta, INEC’s Returning Officer announced the suspension on Sunday due to outstanding results from Oredo and Ikpoba Okha local governments.
“The collation officers for the two local governments are still on the field, and we cannot proceed without their reports,” Prof. Kuta, who is the Vice-Chancellor of Federal University of Technology, Minna explained.
He said the suspension, which took effect immediately, will last until 5 pm, when collation is expected to resume.
Earlier, results from 16 out of 18 LGAs showed the All Progressives Congress (APC) and Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) are leading the pack.
Here are the partial results:
APC: 244,549 votes
PDP: 187,880 votes
LP: 21,420 votes
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports while the two results are being awaited, APC is leading with 56669 votes.
Oredo and Ikpoba Okha, two municipal local government areas in Benin, Edo capital, are the most populous local governments in the state.
