He said All Progressives Congress’ candidate, Osagie Ize-Iyamu polled 223,619 votes, while PDP’s Obaseki got 307,955 votes.

Although 17 political parties fielded candidates for the election, it was a two-way race between APC and PDP.

Obaseki was elected on APC’s platform in 2016 but defected to the PDP after being denied the ticket owing to intra-party crisis.
