The All Progressives Congress, APC, has reiterated that Monday Okpebholo remains its governorship candidate in Edo State governorship election scheduled for Saturday (today).
The party's National Publicity Secretary, Mr Felix Morka, made this clarification in a statement issued in Abuja.
Morka said the clarification became necessary following fake news that Okpebholo had been disqualified by a magistrate court.
According to him, the magistrate court that purportedly issued the fake ruling had issued a disclaimer, stating categorically that it did not emanate from it.
The Publicity Secretary further said that the fake ruling meant to sow seeds of doubt about the APC candidate was a blatant and calculated attempt to subvert the will of the Edo electorate.
