INEC rejects election results from Okowa’s LGA

This development is coming amidst reports of gross electoral violations in several areas of the state.

Recall that the vice presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa was accredited and he casted his vote on Saturday at the Eghoma Primary School Owa Alero Polling Unit 17.
In an earlier report, Okowa said he is optimistic about the victory of the PDP in the elections.

The Governor of Delta State, Dr. Ifeanyi Okowa led by example by delivering his polling unit in Eghoma Primary School, Owa-Alero. Polling Unit 17 was secured by the PDP with a total of 160 votes, while LP and APC received 06 and 04 votes, respectively.

In the same vein, the First Lady of Delta State, Dame Edith Okowa, has also delivered her polling unit in Eghoma Primary School, Owa-Alero. Polling Unit 05 saw a resounding victory for the PDP with 223 votes, while APC and LP received 03 and 22 votes, respectively.
The victories at both polling units demonstrate the overwhelming support for the PDP in Delta State. 

However, the victory is short lived Okowa’s local government area’s presidential results were nullified by the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) due to over-voting.
