As the Edo State Election Petition Tribunal resumes, the Peoples Democratic Party has expressed strong confidence that the election victory of Governor Monday Okpebholo will be overturned in favor of its candidate, Asue Ighodalo, while criticizing the current administration's governance. In response, the ruling All Progressives Congress dismissed the petition as entirely baseless and empty, maintaining that the judiciary will uphold the mandate given by voters and praising the governor's early achievements since taking office.
