Meanwhile, in Akoko Edo where 119,254 voters were registered to participate in the exercise, only 3,911 PVCs were not collected, making it the LGA with the lowest figure of uncollected PVCs in the state.
The distribution of registered voters in the three senatorial districts of the state shows that Edo south has the highest figure of 1,281,414; the north has 564,122, while the central district has 364,998.
