There was jubilation in the Situation Room of the Peoples Democratic Party in Benin as its candidate in the Edo State Governorship Election, Godwin Obaseki, maintains lead in the results announced so far by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
In a video that surfaced online on Sunday, officials in the situation room were joyful.
Some of them were seen shouting “4=4” and “4+4”.
The video also showed the officials, including Obaseki, clapping as results trickle in.
The PUNCH had reported that Obaseki recorded more votes from the results of the 13 Local Governments declared so far by the Independent National Electoral Commission.
With two additional local governments’ results announced by INEC, the PDP still has the highest number of votes.
