The All Progressives Grand Alliance has won all the chairmanship and councillorship positions in the August 29, 2026 local government elections in Anambra State.
The Chairman of the Anambra State Independent Electoral Commission, Genevieve Osakwe, announced the results at the ANSIEC office in Awka on Sunday.
Osakwe said APGA won all 21 chairmanship seats, while candidates of the party also won the councillorship positions in the 21 local government areas, as declared at the ward level.
Declaring the election peaceful and fair, Osakwe said the commission carefully collated and analysed the results to ensure that there were no mistakes.
Although the ruling APGA was the only party that fielded candidates in 20 of the 21 LGAs across the state, the Young Progressives Party fielded candidates in only Anambra East LGA.
Apart from YPP, which fielded candidates in Anambra East LGA, no other opposition political party fielded candidates in the election.
None of the opposition candidates, political parties or their agents was present at the ANSIEC office when the results were declared.
