Election: According to the results of the governorship election that has been so far tallied in the state of Rivers State, the Peoples Democratic Party is in the lead in 17 of the state’s 23 local government areas.
The Labour Party is currently in third place, much behind the Social Democratic Party and the main opposition party, the All Progressives Congress.
The 17 LGA tabulated results were given to Prof. Akpofura Rim-rukeh, the state returning officer for the election and vice-chancellor of the Federal University of Petroleum in Effurum, Delta State.
Rim-rukeh called for the next available result from any of the other councils but received no response, therefore he postponed compiling the results until Monday at exactly 6 o’clock.
“I will close collation for today if no additional findings are available from the other local administrations,” he said.
“Results compilation will get back up on Today.”
Tai, Opobo Nkoro LGA, Gokana LGA, Ogu/Bolo, Eleme, Ikwerre, Oyigbo, Etche, Khana, Andoni, Bonny, Ahoada East, Okrika are the LGAs thus far compiled.
The others are Abua-Odual, Emuoha, and Ogba/Egbema/Ndoni respectively.
