Published

Barring any last minute changes, the All Progressives Congress (APC) may not field a candidate in the September 21 election in Edo because an Abuja Court has summoned the party’s candidate, Monday Okpebholo, for making false statement on oath.

With the court summon for the candidate to answer to criminal charges, it is not clear if Okpebholo will be available to participate in the coming election in Edo State.

The case pertains to conflicting date of birth claims Okpebholo made under oath in his nomination forms submitted to the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) to contest the 2024 governorship election.
