The Enugu State Independent Electoral Commission (ENSIEC) has declared the People Democratic Party (PDP) winner of the chairmanship and councillorship positions in all 17 local government areas of the state.
The party also swept all ward councillorship positions in 11 Local Government Areas also announced by the commission.
The Chairman of ENSIEC, Dr Mike Ajogwu, announced the results at ENSIEC headquarters in Enugu on Sunday.
The declaration is coming almost 24hours after the elections, a delay the commission attributes to fear of attack on the lives of the Returning Officers who finished the collation in their various local governments late.
Commenting on the conduct of the election, Dr Ajogwu said: “So far, so good, the election had been credible, free and fair from ENSIEC assessment. He also gave thanks to media, security agencies, state residents for huge success.
