Awka, Nigeria – The All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA) made a clean sweep of the September 28, 2024, local government elections in Anambra State, winning all chairmanship and councilorship positions across the 21 local government areas (LGAs) of the state.

The Chairman of the Anambra State Independent Electoral Commission (ANSIEC), Genevieve Osakwe, announced the results at the ANSIEC office in Awka late on Sunday.

Osakwe said APGA cleared all the 21 chairmanship and councillorship positions in the 21 local government areas of the state as declared at the ward levels.

Declaring the election as the fairest, Osakwe said the commission carefully collated and analysed the results to ensure that there were no mistakes.

She commended the people of Anambra State for trooping out en masse to exercise their civic rights, while also appreciating security agencies for ensuring peace and orderliness throughout the process.
