With 21 Local Government area results already declared, the ruling All Progressive Grand Alliance (APGA) party of incumbent Governor Willie Obiano appears to be coasting home to victory in the keenly contested Anambra governorship elections.
As the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) declares the results, the vision becomes clearer that the APGA may win a landslide.
Saturday’s election had started on a slow note with delays in the arrival of electoral materials being the biggest setback at the start of the exercise.
It was a development that was condemned by some of the 37 candidates that are in the governorship race.
