    Amid downpour, many voters in Edo Central on Saturday came out en masse to partake in the off-cycle governorship election in the state amidst a downpour.

    According to the News Agency of Nigeria, voting exercise commenced at exactly 8:40 a.m. at the Eguare Primary School, Ujiogba in Esan West Local Government Area (LGA) of the state, which hosts three polling units.

    Regardless of the rain, voters lined up for accreditation and voting, which were held simultaneously.

    At the polling unit II, ward 2, some of the voters took cover with their umbrellas, while others queued in the rain.




    One of the voters, Samuel Samson, told NAN that the voting process started at 8:30 a.m.

    “The electoral officials got here overnight, but the polling booth opened exactly at 8:30 a.m.,” he said.

    At Igueben, Igueben LGA, canopies were mounted in some of the polling units to shield voters from the downpour.
