The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has declared twenty-six candidates of the All Progressives Congress (APC) winners in the Imo State House of Assembly election.
The Imo State INEC Commissioner, Prof. Sylvia Agu, declared that APC won 26 out of the 27 seats in the assembly while election in Ahiazu Mbaise Constituency was declared inconclusive.
However, opposition parties have rejected the results of the election.
On Sunday, the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) alleged that INEC officials posted to Aboh Mbaise LGA of the state for the House of Assembly elections were abducted allegedly by agents of Imo APC and taken to a location in Owerri, where they rewrote the results already won by PDP to favour APC.
PDP said the results announced at the various polling units in Aboh Mbaise and relayed to iREV Portal showed that the party won the area’s House of Assembly seat with more than 90 per cent of the total votes cast.
