The early results from Edo State gubernatorial election which was held today across the whole state have put the opposition party PDP in a very early lead.
Some of the results collated and made available to some of The Republican News reporters reveal a very comfortable early lead by PDP candidate Pastor Ize-Iyamu.
Though these results are authenticated by Election Monitoring Teams and received by our reporters, they still do not make it an official result, which will be made public by INEC official.
