The LGAs are Onitsha North LGA, with 313 polling units; Akwa South LGA, with 390 polling units; Orumba South LGA, with 208 polling units; Idemili North LGA, with 467 polling units; and Ihiala LGA, with 323 polling units.

INEC had, in the early hours of Sunday, declared Governor Charles Soludo the winner of the election.

According to INEC, Mr Soludo polled 422,664 votes to defeat the other 15 governorship candidates who participated in the election.

The gubernatorial poll was characterised by vote-buying, according to observers and candidates participating in the election.
