The Independent National Electoral Commission, (INEC), has declared Prof. Chukwuma Soludo of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, (APGA), the winner of the November 6 governorship election in Anambra State.
The Returning Officer for the 2021 Anambra Governorship election, Prof. Florence Obi, announced this in the early hours of Wednesday, at INEC headquarters, Awka.
Soludo polled a total of 112,229 votes to defeat his closest rival, Valentine Ozigbo, of the Peoples Democratic Party, (PDP), who scored 53, 807 to emerge second.
Senator Andy Uba of the All Progressives Congress (APC) candidate got a total of 43,285 votes to emerge the third position.
Recall that INEC suspended the collation of results late Sunday night and declared the exercise inconclusive following non-conduct of election in Ihiala local government area.
The commission, however, fixed Tuesday, November 9 for a supplementary election in Ihiala.
Announcing the final result, Obi noted that after adding up the results collated from Ihiala, Soludo continued his lead in the election.
