APC Leads In Lagos, Kwara || PDP In Akwa Ibom, Adamawa

The All Progressives Congress (APC) appeared to be heading for victory in the governorship election in Lagos, Ogun, Kwara, Kebbi, Sokoto and Bauchi states as results began coming in from the various polling booths.

The opposition Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) was also heading for victory in Adamawa, Enugu, Delta, Ebonyi and Akwa Ibom states. How did the states vote?
In Lagos State, Babajide Sanwo-Olu of the APC took the lead ahead of his closest rival, Jimi Agbaje of the PDP with the majority of the votes cast in such areas as Ikorodu, Alimoso, Badagry and Lagos Island.

Sanwo-Olu was the preferred candidate at Vice President Yemi Osinbajo’s polling unit in Victoria Garden City, Lekki. He got 223 votes there as against the 175 votes polled by Agbaje.

Osinbajo lost to the PDP by a wide margin during the presidential election two weeks ago.

At PU 007, Anglican Primary School, Iworo, Badagry LGA the APC candidate got 207 while the PDP received 74 votes.

In Ogun state, The Nation reports that Prince Dapo Abiodun of APC held firm in most parts of Ijebu, Remo , Egbaland and Otta. He also did well in Yewaland although Adekunle Akinlade of the Allied Peoples Movement (APM) seemed to have an edge there, being an indigene.

In Kwara, Alhaji AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of the APC was looking good. He won his polling unit at Idigba, Adewole ward with 592 votes as against PDP’s 80. He also got 201 votes at Ode Oba Onilu, Ilorin as against the 52 for PDP.

At press time, there was a wide gap between his votes and what the PDP candidate Razaq Atunwa had garnered.

It was also clear that Governor Atiku Bagudu of Kebbi State had won in most of the polling centres where INEC returning officers had announced results.

Bagudu got 572 votes against the 7 received by Sen. Isa Galaudu of PDP at Iyan Gwandu polling unit 012, Marafa ward. In Nasarawa 2 polling units 002, Bagudu got 526 votes and Galaudi 98.

In Garkar Mai-Alelu polling unit 006, where the governor cast his vote, the APC received 745 votes against 23 garnered by the PDP. The trend was similar in Bauchi state.

Sokoto state was not really clear but it appears Governor Tambuwal was struggling.

Official results from polling stations in Adamawa, Enugu, Delta, Ebonyi and Akwa Ibom gave it to the PDP candidates.
