The Lawmaker representing Edo Central, Senator Monday Okpebholo has emerged as the winner of the All Progressives Congress (APC) Governorship direct primary election in Edo State.

The announcement took place at the Lushville Hotel and Suites, located in the Government Reservation Area (GRA), Benin.

This primary election comes in the wake of a controversial and inconclusive primary held last week, overseen by Governor Hope Uzodimma of Imo State.
The APC National Working Committee intervened, declaring the initial primary inconclusive after disputes arose over the premature declaration of Dennis Idahosa as the winner.
According to Uzodimma’s claims, Idahosa had led the gubernatorial race with 40,483 votes, a figure that was contested by party members. The rerun of the primary election not only addresses the contentious issues that marred the previous attempt but also reaffirms the APC’s commitment to a transparent and democratic selection process for its candidates.
