PDP insists on Ighodalo as Edo guber candidate despite court ruling

The Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) said on Thursday that Asue Ighodalo remains its candidate in the September 21 governorship election in Edo State.

The party was reacting to a court ruling on the February 22 primary election in the state.

Justice Inyang Ekwo of the Federal High Court, Abuja, on Thursday nullified the primary election that produced Asue Ighodalo as the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship candidate in Edo State.
