All Progressives Grand Alliance, APGA, governorship candidate, Owelle Rochas Okorocha, a former Presidential candidate, has won the Imo state gubernatorial elections.

The final results announced by INEC Saturday morning, showed that the APGA candidate scored 336,859 votes with the incumbent governor Ikedi Ohakim scoring 290,490 votes.

Supplementary governorship election were supposed to be held, yesterday, in four local councils and one ward in Imo State. However, election did not hold in Oguta local govt due to security threat. Notable lawyers however believe that the single local government of Oguta cannot invalidate the election or the victory of Rochas Okorocha.

19 candidates contested for the governorship position in the state.

Prof. Hillary Odoagah, Vice Chancellor of Michael Opara University of Agriculture Umudike and INEC’s Returning Officer, announced the results.
