Supporters of the All Progressives Congress are rejoicing ahead of the final announcement of the Edo state governorship election results and winner.

As of the time of filing this report, the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has collated the results of 17 local government areas out of the 18 LGAs in Edo state.

The results collated show that Senator Monday Okpebholo, the APC candidate, is currently leading his rival, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate Asue Asue Ighodalo.

But ahead of the declaration of the final results, APC supporters were seen in a video vibing and dancing to a song sung in Benin's (native) language.
