The national chairman of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Chief John Odigie Oyegun has again lost his unit to the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) in the ongoing Edo election.

Oyegun, who voted at Oredo Ward 2, Unit 1 has not won an election for his party in the unit since joining the APC.

The returning officer of Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) announced that the APC scored 69 votes, while the PDP scored 78 votes.

Meanwhile, Situation Room is reporting that there are tension in some polling booths and wards over issues ranging from over-voting to unused ballot and many more.

It reports that a polling unit in Etsako, the number of voters did not tally with the number of votes cast. In Oredo, it says there is argument between party agents over election materials.


Voting has ended in practically all the polling booths and counting of ballots has commenced.

Meanwhile, it was jubilations galore at Ward 4, unit 19 as APC candidate Godwin Obaseki won election in the ward.
