PDP supporters protested in Benin against the Edo governorship election results, alleging manipulation during the collation process.

The protest occurred near the INEC headquarters, where preliminary results showed the APC leading in 11 of the 16 declared local government areas, while the PDP secured victories in six.

Tensions escalated when police used tear gas to disperse the crowd early Sunday morning. PDP agent Tony Iyoha accused INEC of manufacturing results, highlighting concerns over electoral integrity as they awaited the final result from the last LGA.
