Edo 2020: APC congratulates Obaseki, says party lost due to internal problems

                                                                

The All Progressives Congress has congratulated Governor Godwin Obaseki on his re-election as the Governor of Edo State.

This was contained in a statement by the chairman of the APC national caretaker committee, Mai Mala Buni, on Monday.

The statement was released a few hours after Buni and the chairman of the party’s governorship election campaign for Edo State, Abdullahi Ganduje, met with the President, Major General Muhammadu Buhari (retd.), behind closed doors.

It was titled “Edo State Governorship Election: Victory for Democracy” and personally signed by Buni.

Buni, in the statement, described the election as peaceful, adding that its outcome represented a victory for Nigeria’s democracy.

He explained that some problems within APC worked against the party and its candidate in the just-concluded election.
