Minutes before Obaseki was led outside by Mba flanked by a contingent of policemen, All Progressives Congress National Secretary, Surajudeen Basiru, addressed journalists that the governor had no reason to be on the premises.

Obaseki, while addressing journalists on Sunday at the Peoples Democratic Party Situation Room in Benin, said he was at the INEC office to meet the Resident Electoral Commission after getting reports that the commission had stopped collation.
