The ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) in Imo State won Saturday’s elections for all 305 Councillorship and 27 Chairmanship positions in the state’s 27 Local Government Areas.
The Imo State Independent Electoral Commission (ISIEC) declared the results of the elections at its Collation Centre, located at its headquarters in Owerri, on Sunday.
The ISIEC Chairman, Charles Ejiogu, declared the results without announcing the figures polled by the parties participating in the exercise.
He said ISEC gave room for robust participation. We had meetings with critical stakeholders and all security agencies.
The ISEC chairman also claimed the electoral body observed primaries of political parties. Election took place across the 305 wards and 27 LGs. Election took place at 4758 polling units.
The chairman added, “The APC won all the chairmanship and councillorship seats”.
17 political parties participated in the election.
The elections were grossly marred by voter apathy, and voting did not occur in almost all the local government areas.
