The governorship candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC) in Edo State, Senator Monday Okpebholo, has voted in his PU003, Uwessan 1, Esan Central Local Government Area.
The senator, who represents Edo Central Zone, said the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) would not get a single vote at his polling unit as the party is not popular in his area.
“What I am seeing here is testimony that INEC is getting it right,” he said.
“PDP or whatever will not get one vote here because this is my home and my people love me. I have nothing to fear. What they are saying about security is hyping. No knock out or a stick of matches. It is just to scare people away from voting.”
Labour Party candidate, Olumide Akpata, also voted at polling unit 11 ward in Oredo Local Government Area.
He expressed satisfaction with the voting process, but hoped that it would be the same throughout the state.
