“Therefore, I hereby return him elected as the candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) for the upcoming election in Edo State. My brother, congratulations,” the governor added.
Meanwhile, the All Progressive Congress(APC) is yet to determine its flag bearer for the state gubernatorial election.

A circular issued by Sulaiman Muhammad Argungu, APC National Organising Secretary on Wednesday which SaharaReporters obtained, named Senator Bassey Otu as the new Chairman.
The election conducted by Uzodimma was declared as flawed after three winners emerged as the APC governorship candidates.
The new election is slated to be concluded Thursday.
