The primaries of the All Progressive Congress(APC) for the gubernatorial election in Edo State was won by Senator Monday Okpebholo.
Okpebholo polled 12,433 votes to defeat 11 other aspirants who contested the re-run election, which was initiated after the first contest was declared inconclusive by the leadership of the ruling party.
The senator was one of the three winners that emerged from last Saturday’s canceled shadow poll.
The outcome of the exercise was announced officially in Benin by the new Chairman of the election committee and Governor of Cross River State, Bassey Otu, following the collation of results from the 18 Local Government Areas.
