The Independent National Electoral Commission INEC has refused to declare All Progressives Grand Alliance’s Chief William Obiano winner of the Anambra gubernatorial election with majority votes of 174,710, stating the election was inconclusive. The PDP polled 94956 while the APC had 92300.

Making this known this morning at 6 am, the Returning Officer, Prof James Epoke, who is also Vice-Chancellor, University of Calabar (UNICAL), declared that a supplementary election would be conducted at a date to be fixed by the electoral umpire, where the election was cancelled.

He said that the total numbers of cancelled votes was more than the difference between the numbers of votes cast for the winner and the runner up of this election according to the state INEC official who read the results at about 6am Monday morning.

Obiano polled 174,710 votes to come first, the first runner-up, Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) candidate Comrade Tony Nwoye polled 94,956 votes to place second, while the Dr. Chris Ngige of APC had 92300.

Because the difference in the figures between the first two candidates, which is 79,754 is less than the cancelled votes, which 113,113, the commission could not declare anybody the winner.

A total of 1,763,751 voters were registered for the election, while 451,826 were accredited. Total valid votes was 413,005, while total number of rejected votes was 16,544.

Total votes cast was 429,549. Out of the cancelled votes, 89,997 were from Idemili North Local Government Area alone, and additional 636 from two units in Idemili South.

APGA won in 16 of the 21 local government areas, APC won in two, PDP won in two, while LP won one.

The announcement began at about 12.40am. All the local government collation officers were professors or senior staff of Unversity of Calabar.
A date for the supplementary election will be fixed after the commission must have met, it was announced.

The commission will arrange a supplementary election in those areas where election was cancelled, Prof Epoke said.

He added that all the parties that participated in last Saturday’s election will participate in the supplementary election.
