Kelvin Chukwu has defeated Uchenna Ogbodo, Chinedu Nneji and Christian Onyeni to emerge the candidate of Labour Party for Enugu East senatorial district scheduled for March 11.
Kelvin is the younger brother of Barrister Oyibo Chukwu, the LP candidate who was assassinated along Amaechi-Agbani Road, Enugu on February 22 barely two days to the elections on February 25.
INEC had postponed the election into the senatorial district following the murder of the senatorial candidate.
Announcing the results in the presence of two Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) observers on Sunday in Enugu, the National Vice Chairman (South-East) of Labour Party, Chief Innocent Okeke, said that Chukwu scored 223 votes and his rivals did not score any vote.
Okeke therefore declared Kelvin Chukwu the new flag bearer of the Labour Party for Enugu East senatorial polls, scheduled for March 11.
