The Labour Party governorship candidate in Edo State, Olumide Akpata, said on Saturday he would not challenge the result of last month’s governorship election in the state.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) had already declared the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate, Monday Okpebholo, as the winner of the September 21 election in Edo State.
Okpenbholo, 54, scored 291,667 votes to edge out his Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) rival, Asue Ighodalo, who garnered 247,274 votes in the exercise.
