Edo Polls: Brawl over INEC ad hoc official

There was disagreement at Emokpae Model Primary School, Oredo, over the presence of a treasurer of a political party, simply known as Toronto, who is alleged to be an ad hoc staff of INEC.

It took the intervention of the police to stop what would have been a fight.

At least 12 out of the 18 local government areas of Edo State will play a decisive role in Saturday’s (today) governorship poll as incumbent Governor Godwin Obaseki, who is the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party, clashes with the leading opposition All Progressives Congress governorship candidate, Pastor Osagie Ize-Iyamu.

Although 14 parties fielded candidates for the poll, observers have argued that the election would be a two-horse race between the PDP and the APC.
