Abia State Governor, Okezie Ikpeazu has called for the nullification of the declaration of Sen. Enyinnaya Abaribe as the winner of Abia South Senatorial elections.
Ikpeazu, who is the Abia South senatorial districts candidate of the People’s Democratic Party (PDP) in the Feb. 25 elections, also faulted Independent National Electoral Commission’s, (INEC) declaration of Sen. Abaribe as winner of the election.
Abaribe contested the election under All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA), and according to INEC, he scored the highest votes in the election in which 108 polling units could not vote.
The Returning Officer of the election, Prof Georgina Ugwuanyi had on Tuesday declared the election inconclusive but returned in the afternoon to announce winners.
