Mr Kenneth Imasuagbon, the only Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) governorship aspirant vying for the ticket of the party with Governor Godwin Obaseki in Thursday’s primary has announced his withdrawal from the race.

Though, Imasuagbon, who had contested for the governor seat five times, has stepped down from the contest where 2,229 delegates will choose the PDP gubernatorial flagbearer, voting will still go on for affirmation of Obaseki’s candidacy.

All is set for voting to begin at the Ogbemudia Stadium Benin City which is ongoing as at the time of this publication.
