The Peoples Democratic Party in Edo State has commended security agencies and the electorate in the state for their conduct during last Saturday’s presidential and National Assembly elections. Chairman of the party in the state, Dan Orbih, gave the commendation on Tuesday in a media chat in Benin City. He added that the conduct of party members and voters was “very impressive and mature even in the face of intimidation by members of the ruling APC’’. According to Orbih, the conduct of the electoral umpire is capable of causing voter-apathy in the March 9 Governorship and State Assembly elections. “I congratulate our winners and indeed every citizen of Edo for voting for the PDP presidential candidate, Atiku Abubakar,” he said.
