The 22nd of June 2020 has been fixed for the Governorship Primary of the All progressives Congress in Edo state.

Governor of Edo State, Godwin Obaseki has said he is optimistic the forthcoming gubernatorial election will redefine the tenets of the democratic system in Nigeria.

The Governor urged the people to be wary of the antics of those spreading rumours in the run-up to the elections scheduled for September.

Members of the APC also gave assurances of support for the Edo State Governor’s bid to emerge the candidate of the party.
