INEC Declares Anambra Governorship Election Inconclusive; Soludo Set To Win, Leads In 18 LGs

The Returning officer of the Anambra Governorship election, Professor Florence Obi has said that a supplementary election would hold in 362 polling units in Ihiala Local Government Area on November 9.

Citing the Constitution, Prof. Obi noted that election has to take place in those polling units for the election to be concluded.

She noted that election did not take place in Ihiala because there were reports of insecurity in the area.

Meanwhile, the candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, Prof Charles Soludo, is set to be declared the winner of Saturday’s Anambra State governorship election as results so far released by the Independent National Electoral Commission indicate that he won in 18 of the 20 local government areas of the state.
