In a keenly contested race, the APC secured wins in key areas including Esan West, Owan West, Akoko Edo, Egor, Esan Central, Ovia South West, Orhionmwon, Owan East, Etsako East, and Etsako West local government areas.

The PDP, on the other hand, won in Ovia South-West LGA, Esan North-East LGA, Ovia North-East LGA, Uhunmwode LGA, Igueben LGA, and Esan South-East LGAs.

The results indicate strong voter support for Ighodalo, positioning him as the likely next governor of Edo State, as the remaining results are expected to solidify his lead.

Meanwhile, the returning officer, Prof. Joe Mmadu from the University of Technology, Minna, Niger State, has adjourned the collation of results for Oredo and Ikpoba Okha LGAs, and will reconvene at 5 p.m. to announce them.
