The All Progressives Congress (APC) has criticised Yiaga Africa over its report questioning the results of last Saturday’s governorship election in Edo.
PREMIUM TIMES reported that Yiaga raised concerns over some flaws in the election processes such as the late arrival of materials and results collation in controversial places. The civic group, which was accredited by the electoral commission, INEC, to observe the election, also faulted the declared result, saying the result declared in three local government areas by INEC did not tally with its findings.
On Sunday, INEC declared the candidate of the APC, Monday Ekpobholo, winner of the election after scoring the highest votes and winning in 11 of the state’s 18 local governments.
