In the EDO Local Government elections, the All Progressives Congress (APC) secured a significant win in Etsako West LGA, the stronghold of Deputy State Governor, Philip Shaibu. CONTINUE READING
The results are as follows:
- APC garnered 8,653 votes
- PDP trailed with 4,656 votes
- Labour Party managed to get 1,268 votes

This loss at the local government level is seen as a further indication that Deputy Governor Shaibu seems to be losing his grip on Edo North and, by extension, Edo State. It’s a troubling sign for the Deputy Governor, especially recalling his previous losses – from his polling unit during the presidential election to the entire local government during the Edo House of Assembly elections.
