Announcing the results late Sunday at the headquarters of the Anambra State Independent Electoral Commission in Awka, the Commission’s Chairman, Genevieve Osakwe, confirmed APGA’s clean sweep.
Osakwe declared that APGA candidates won all 21 chairmanship seats and councillorship positions in the state, noting that the results were declared at the ward level.
She described the election as the “fairest,” emphasising that the commission meticulously collated and analysed the results to avoid errors.
“The commission carefully collated and analysed the results to ensure accuracy,” Osakwe said.
She also praised security agencies for maintaining peace and order throughout the electoral process.
She affirmed, “This is to confirm the results of the chairmanship and councillorship elections held on 28 September 2024. The polls were free, fair and credible, and APGA candidates were returned elected, having scored the highest number of votes.”
