BREAKING: Anambra election: APGA in early lead from collated results

The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) is clearly in the lead in Saturday’s governorship in Anambra State from results being collated at polling units and wards.

APGA has reportedly garnered more votes than other parties from some wards.

The Independent National Electoral Commission is expected to make a formal declaration on the outcome of the election on Sunday night or early Monday morning.

The three major contenders in the poll going by the results so far collated, it was learnt, are Prof. Chukwua Soludo (APGA), Senator Andy Uba, All Progressives Congress (APC), and Mr Valentine Ozigbo of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP).

The three candidates are from Aguata Local Government, which will no doubt play a significant role in deciding the winner of the election.

 

From the results of wards in Aguata, Soludo is said to be ahead of other opponents.

While collation is ongoing across LGAS, INEC has fixed Sunday for the final collation.
