All of the chairmanships and council seats in Anambra State’s 21 local government areas were won by the All Progressives Grand Alliance, or APGA, in the state’s local government elections held on September 28.
The Chairman of the Anambra State Independent Electoral Commission, ANSIEC, Genevieve Osakwe, announced the results at the ANSIEC office in Awka.
Osakwe, while declaring the election as free and fair, said the ANSIEC carefully collated and analysed the results to ensure that there were no mistakes.
She added that none of the opposition candidates or political parties and their party agents came to the ANSIEC office where the election was declared.
She hailed the people of the State for trooping out en masse to exercise their civic rights, while also appreciating security agencies for ensuring peace and orderliness throughout the process.
