As in Imo, Sokoto, Kwara where the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) swept the entire positions and Enugu where the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) cleared the entire slots, the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) has emerged victorious in the 28 September 2024 local government elections in Anambra State, securing all chairmanship and councillorship seats across the 21 local government areas.

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.
