APGA wins ALL seats in Anambra LGA elections

The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has won all the 21 chairmanship seats in Anambra state.

On Saturday, the Anambra State Independent Electoral Commission (ANSIEC) conducted elections in all the LGAs of the state.

This is the first LGA election in the state since 2013.

Before now, the Labour Party (LP) and All Progressives Congress (APC) expressed concerns about the situation, with some parties boycotting the process.

Announcing the poll result in Akwa on Saturday, Genevieve Osakwe, chair of ANSIEC, said APGA won the 21 LGAs and 326 wards of the state.

“This is a significant victory for the party, showing that APGA is at its strongest state in Anambra,” the party said after the election.

“While other parties were in disarray and none could field Candidates for up to 50% of the positions, APGA is the only party that fielded 100% of candidates for all positions, and campaigned as if its survival depended upon the election.

“The party’s success demonstrates the strong support of the Anambra electorates, reaffirming their pact with APGA.

“The election outcome is a testament to APGA’s strength at the grassroots level, with the party’s candidates emerging victorious in all 21 local government areas and 326 wards.”
