The Edo State chapter of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has congratulated Governor Godwin Obaseki of the Peoples Democratic (PDP) for his victory at the September 19 governorship election held in Edo State.
In statement signed by the state chairman of the
party, Anslem Ojezua, the party said that although the
election was “acclaimed to be peaceful, orderly and transparent,” what led to
their defeat was the mismanagement of the process leading to the election by a
“selfish, insensitive, arrogant and irresponsible leadership.” 
The statement reads:
“We join President
Muhammadu Buhari and the National Caretaker Committee of our great Party to
congratulate Governor Godwin Obasekl and his Deputy Rt. Hon. Philip Shalbu for
their victory at the just concluded Governorship election in Edo state” the
chairman said.
“The election has been generally acclaimed to be peaceful, orderly and transparent. The people of Edo State have made their choice. In a very clear and unambiguous manner.
