The turnout for the Saturday governorship election in Edo State in Oredo Ward 6, Ministry of Education voting centre, have been low.
The presence of the governorship candidate of the Labour Party (LP), Olumide Akpata, whose voting unit is located within the voting centre, could not change the trend.
Though it started drizzling at about 11;23 am, the apparent voter’s apathy, Tribune Online gathered, was largely due to the feeling of insecurity surrounding the election.
The security build-up from the Mission Road end of the Ring Road, the city centre, up to Urubi, was an indication of the feeling of insecurity in the state.
