Recall that Tinubu had even shared a video urging Edo people to reject his party’s rival, the Peoples Democratic Party.
However, the Independent National Electoral Commission announced that PDP candidate, Governor Godwin Obaseki after he polled 307,955 votes to defeat his closest rival and APC candidate, Osagie Ize-Iyamu, who got 223,619 votes.
