“I am calling on INEC that the playing field should remain level. Nobody should be given any undue advantage.

“All party agents should be allowed into the collation centres so that we can all witness the process.

“Edo election is an off-cycle election so INEC should have the luxury of deploying its resources to show the world that they can do it well.

“‘The playing field should be totally levelled to allow the best man or woman to win.

 ‘I am hearing some concerning feedback from around the state but I cannot make any statement until I verify the source of my information.
