The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) has declared Governor Chukwuma Soludo as the winner of the November 8, 2025 governorship election in Anambra State.
The Returning Officer and Vice Chancellor of the University of Benin (UNIBEN), Prof. Edoba Omoregie, announced result on Sunday.
According to Omoregie, Soludo polled 422,664 votes to defeat his closest rival and candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Nicholas Ukachukwu, who scored 99,445 votes, while the candidate of the Young Progressives Party (YPP), Sir Paul Chukwuma, had 37,753 votes to come third.
Soludo, the candidate of the All Progressives Grand Alliance (APGA), won in all 21 local government areas of the state.
Omoregie said: “The number of registered voters was 2,788,864, while accredited voters were 598,229.
“The total valid votes stood at 584,054, rejected votes were 11,244, and the total votes cast amounted to 595,298.
“After collating the results as tallied into Form EC8E, it is now my privilege to declare the figures each candidate scored according to their political parties.
“There were a few areas affected by incidents, leading to cancellations in some wards across Anambra West, Anaocha, Awka South, and Onitsha South LGAs, amounting to 10,481 affected votes.
“However, the margin of lead between the top candidates did not affect the overall outcome of the election.
“I, Prof. Edoba Omoregie, Returning Officer for the 2025 Anambra State Governorship Election, hereby declare that the election was peaceful. Chukwuma Soludo of the All Progressives Grand Alliance, having scored 422,664 votes — the highest number of valid votes cast and having satisfied the requirements of the law — is hereby declared the winner and returned elected.”
